What is 'tiangou' mean in Chinese Slang?

Literally means 'licking dog', referring to someone who desperately tries to please or pursue someone they like, often without reciprocation. It's often used to describe unrequited love or excessive flattery.

Example: When someone keeps trying to please their crush, you might say 'Don't be a tiangou!'

Fun fact: It's often used humorously to describe one-sided relationships.
