What it means

A text template: "Don't flirt with me" followed by an over-the-top reason, like being clingy, messaging constantly or forcing someone into movie marathons. People post their own version, often quoting someone else's, as a joking warning about their own quirks.

Where it started

Posts in the current wave quote each other back to November 2023: the oldest one found in the chain is by @RainovaVT on X on November 14, 2023 ("Don't flirt with me / I'm a little delulu"). It came back in November 2026, when @DandereEve and then @o7Saya posted versions on November 10; @o7Saya's had about 50,000 views per X's public counts on November 12. VTuber accounts and their followers added many more, X's public post counts for the phrase roughly doubled from November 10 to 11, and an X News story on November 12 covered the trend. Who first used the phrase hasn't been confirmed.
