Simping is commonly called out by other men who believe their male friend is acting too soft or too infatuated with another person. Similar to a Simp, simping is when someone allows their new fondness for someone else to shift their perspective or focus from everything else except for their partner. Emotional tendencies associated with simping are being over-emotional and/or sentimental because of how vulnerable their newfound lover has made them.
