The person who makes the first move in
new romantic relationships. Typically, one person will be the swooper or more of a swooper than the other person. The swooper is the person who hits
on on the other person, asks them out on a date, reaches over to hold their hand the first time, leans in for
the first kiss, etc.
Jen: Tell me about how you guys met. Who
swooped who?
Maria: We knew each other for a while, but he wouldn't do anything, so I finally had to
ask him out.
Rod: Yeah, she's always been the swooper.
