As such, they can be trickier to pin down - even if they characterize a wholly interior state. Vibes are the gray to the black-and-white of moods. For one thing, while moods are big and emphatic, a vibe trades in subtlety. Over the past few months, “vibe” appears to have gradually supplanted the memefied version of the word “ mood ,” gesturing toward many of the same qualities as that now overused slang: shared aesthetic, emotional relatability and mutual understanding. Whatever this vibe is, thats my aesthetic /2SM8ceLBsX riri madden's pr manager October 8, 2019 OK i emailed one (1) male therapist and he ended his email with "peace, doc" AND IDK I LIKE THIS DUDES VIBE….

A frequency that fills a room, giving it mood and character. The vibe is, well, a vibration, one that registers only on a hidden sense. What is a vibe? Something too ephemeral to quantify - but that doesn’t mean it isn’t there.
