It’s 2025, and for better or worse, every situationship seems one post away from being declared “official.” One blurry brunch photo, one tagged story, one shared sunset — and suddenly everyone knows who you’re spending your weekends with.

Let’s be honest: not every night out needs to turn into a long-term thing. Sometimes, what you really want is a spark—a shared moment that’s exciting, respectful, and leaves you smiling the next morning (no regrets, no awkwardness). But a great one-night connection doesn’t just happen. It’s an art form, and like any good art, […]

But in real life? Sometimes the movie just ends mid-scene. And that’s not tragic—it’s real. Not every spark turns into a wedding. Not […]
So we just read this gem of an article from Rolling Stone—yes, that Rolling Stone—about how Gen Z men are so paranoid about being filmed on dates that many are flat-out opting out of dating altogether. And you know what? We get it. Because this is wild. And yes, it’s gross.Picture this: you’re finally on […]
Pop star Lily Allen just said post-divorce dating has been “bitterly disappointing,” calling it punishing, humiliating, and just… not it. (via The Cut) And honestly? Same, girl.
