Gawkward: /gok ward/ When Robbie visits June, he’s all over her. Even though Joe came to see her first, Robbie buts in amorously.

This is particularly difficult since June is actually Joe’s wife… Etymology: Gawk (an awkward stupid person;look with amazement; stare stupidly)& Awkward (not at ease socially;causing pain or embarrassment) Created by: Nosila.
