In the context of dating and relationships, “mize” usually means to ignore or overlook someone who is trying to flirt with you. For example, someone could say, “I texted him to ask if he wanted to go out, but he mized me. I guess he isn’t into me.” In this sense, it’s kind of similar to the slang term “ghosted,” which also means to ignore someone as a way to reject them. “Mize” is primarily used in South Africa, but it may be starting to gain wider popularity through TikTok.
