DURS

What does DURS stand for in messages?

Dang you are sexy

DURS is a slang acronym most often used in texting or online chats when someone wants to directly compliment another person's looks boldly and playfully. Because it's a very forward expression, it's not the kind of acronym you'll usually see from shy texters; it tends to pop up in flirty conversations, dating apps, or between people who already have some comfort level with each other.

The acronym started appearing in online messaging culture in the 2000s, during the rise of quick, shorthand texting. Mostly younger people who enjoy keeping compliments short, cheeky, and to the point use the acronym. While DURS is not a mainstream acronym, like LOL or OMG, it still shows up in casual flirty exchanges where someone wants to make their attraction obvious in a simplified message.

Example

Just got back from the gym. Feeling kinda dead lol
Send a selfie, I wanna see the post-workout look
Enjoy. :)
