What does "sneaky link" mean in dating slang?
The term "sneaky link" refers to a secret or hidden sexual or romantic partner that someone meets privately, usually without others knowing. The structure combines "sneaky," meaning secretive, with "link," meaning connection or meeting. It implies discretion, often because the relationship is casual, forbidden, or kept from a main partner. The phrase became popular through social media slang in the 2020s, especially in short-form videos and memes.
Examples
He has a sneaky link he meets late at night.
