Zombieing
意味: When someone who previously ghosted you suddenly reappears and tries to reconnect as if nothing happened.
Like a zombie rising from the dead, a person who 'zombies' you comes back to life in your inbox after weeks or months of silence. They might send a casual 'Hey, how've you been?' with zero acknowledgment that they disappeared. It's ghosting in reverse and is often met with disbelief or frustration.
