(2)v. the act of picking apart/scavenging through an object or place to obtain useful or working parts/pieces to benefit oneself. adj. Vulture v. Vultured, Vulturing adv. Vulturingly Urban Dictionary

(verb) to actively wait until a relationship ends, and then swoop in and attempt to establish one's own relationship. However, no sabotage is done, as in a vulture circling above an animal (the relationship) dying in the desert. Vultures are scavengers, and let the relationship fall apart naturally so they don't feel guilty (although guilt may be present regardless.) Urban Dictionary

The act of one friend using pre-existing, platonic rapport with another friend's ex or otherwise closely connected individual in an attempt to get play and/or sex without having to meet and deal with new people on their own. Often a trait of sexually inexperienced peoples who prefer that their friends do the work of courting a girl/guy while the "vulturer" lays back and wait for the relationship to fail so that they may move in under the guise of "friendship". Ironically, "vulturing" nearly always fails in its employment as the concept of one friend taking advantage of another friend's failure is a sign of insecurity and romantic incompetence on the part of the "vulturer". This, obviously, is universally acknowledged as unattractive from the perspective of any potential mate. This definition also applies to friend-with-benefits and to a lesser extent, siblings. Urban Dictionary

One who takes the leftover kills in halo. One who takes them frequently, and as much as possible. One who hears, "Killtacular killtacular killtacular". Urban Dictionary

A friend who would have sex with your gf/bf or spouse. A friend who would would get your date your ex knowing that you still love them Urban Dictionary
