So, what really is this toxic relationship term all about? "Banksying is
when someone you like creates a strong romantic connection with you, and
then vanishes without explanation. It’s like a hit-and-run, but the car was
a Bentley, and it left you spinning," said Connell Barrett, a dating coach
and founder of Dating Transformation, "It comes from the street artist
Banksy, who’s famous for creating haunting murals—then he’s gone without
warning," said Barrett, who explained that in dating, it’s the same move.
"Someone makes you feel something special, and then vanishes," said
Barrett.
Much Google comment.
