A harizzment check is the moment you pause to assess whether someone's rizz is actually landing — or if they've crossed into full harassment territory. It's the internal audit your friends do on your behalf when you're coming on way too strong in someone's DMs or in person. Think of it as a rizz quality-control measure: are you charming them or stressing them out? The harizzment check exists because some people genuinely cannot tell the difference.

A moment of self-assessment or social evaluation where someone gauges how much natural charm and charisma they — or someone else — is projecting. A rizz check can be a playful internal gut-check before approaching someone, a friends' group verdict on whether your flirting game is landing, or a viral TikTok challenge format where people rate their own pull. Think of it as the charisma equivalent of checking yourself in the mirror before walking into a room.
(Internet slang, uncommon) An act or situation where a person’s attempt to flirt or act charmingly is intense, excessive, or unwanted.
Something that's harizzment coded has all the surface traits of confident rizz but is actually giving off uncomfortable, boundary-crossing energy. The vibe isn't charismatic — it's persistent in a way that makes people look for exits. Harizzment coded behavior is often delivered with a big smile and zero self-awareness. It might not technically be harassment, but something about it makes everyone in the room tense up and check the time.

Harizzment mode is when someone switches from casual flirting into an almost obsessive pursuit that they still somehow think is charming. They're locked in. Every conversation gets steered back to the person they're after. Every group hangout becomes an opportunity. From the outside it's painful to watch; they're convinced they're being slick when they're clearly in full harizzment mode. Usually requires an intervention from a friend or a very direct rejection.
