Benched

You’re online dating using tinder or hinge or whatever app and you’re getting along with someone, eventually you get their number and set a date but instead of ghosting you they put you on the bench while they talk to someone else to see who is better worthy of your time and effort making ‘you’ a benchwarmer.

Bro I got this girls number and I asked her out for Saturday night and she said yes.. it’s been three days since I’ve heard from her but I think we are still on, should I ask or do you think I’m being benched?

The Bench

A forum of justice comprised of the judge or judges of a court. The seat of the court occupied by the judges.

The bench is used to refer to a group of judges as a collective whole. It is a tribunal or place where justice is administered. To appear before the full bench means to appear before the entire group of judges of the court.

to become a judge is to step up to the bench

the bench

n. not just a bench, but "the" bench. This is where starting baseball players dream of getting to in their career, where players can completely screw around all day, and where there are gemming stories. Three key aspects of the bench are if a bench player can, keep the book, stay in one spot the whole game, and get foul balls. A perfect bencher is something even veteran benchers may not get to accomplish in their lifetime. One must never move the entire time during the game, asking the coach to not put him in if he asks. It has only happened once or twice in freshman-jv baseball history.

That kid for Milton clearly wanted to sit the bench in that game, since when he hit a dribbler to eich, instead of running to first, he walked off the field towards the bench so that his coach would sit him for the rest of the game.
