To keep something a secret; to not announce something.
I low-key like her, I'm too nervous to say anything.
To be secretive about something Such as crushes,events,Etc.
Person-I low key have a crush on (so and so)
The opposite of high key. Basically just not very showy. If someone thinks you are low key kinda hot, it means that they find you quite attractive but you are very subtle about being attractive. You almost don't know it.
