Plenty of Fish released its annual list of new dating trends they expect to see next year . . . along with some new terms they came up with.
Here are six new trends they expect to see in 2024. And bear with us, because they’re all pretty dumb . . .
1. Rizz-colored glasses. A play on the term “rose-colored glasses.” Rizz is short for charisma. It’s when you fall for someone because they’re charismatic, but then realize you’ll never have a real relationship with them.
2. VBD. Short for “vision board dating.” Adjusting your dating app location to somewhere you’re thinking of moving to.
3. PMI. Short for “premature intimacy.” It’s like TMI, or “too much information.” It’s when you share too many personal details too early in a relationship.
4. Thera-posing. It’s when you use “therapy speak” too much, and act like you’re more evolved than you really are.
5. Canon-bailing. Quote, “cultivating your identity outside of a relationship.” So, putting yourself first. It’s a play on “cannon ball.” But also, a “canon event” is slang for a pivotal moment in your life that changes everything. (It went viral this summer because of the movie “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse”.)
6. Crypt-ick. When the person you’re with suddenly feels icky, because they’re way too focused on one specific topic . . . especially if it’s cryptocurrency.
