FOMO stands for "Fear of Missing Out" and is associated with the feeling of anxiety or sadness that can come from seeing others engaging in activities or events that one is not a part of, often through social media. Jared's experience is a clear example of FOMO, as he felt isolated and like he was missing out on what was happening around him. YOLO (You Only Live Once), ICYMI (In Case You Missed It), TTYN (Talk To You Never), and ZMOT (Zero Moment of Truth) are not related to the feeling Jared experienced.
