A zombieing check is the moment you pause and ask yourself whether you're about to pull a zombie move on someone — resurfacing after months of silence as if nothing happened. It's also what your friends do when they notice you sliding back into an ex's DMs after a long ghost. The zombieing check is an act of basic emotional accountability: before you hit send on that casual 'hey,' ask yourself if you're a person or a corpse crawling out of the ground.
My roommate did a full zombieing check on me when she saw me typing a message to someone I'd ignored since October.
