EXCLUSIVE: Dating comes with its own ever-evolving dictionary of on-trend terms. Relationship expert LalalaLetMeExplain is on hand to decode the latest lingo...
Are you up to speed with the latest dating terms? Do you know how to relate to current convos about love? Whether you’re in a long-term relationship, back in the dating pool, or simply want to unpick what on earth they’re talking about on Love Island, there’s a whole lexicon out there that you need to get to grips with if you want to navigate the minefield of modern romance.
B is for Breadcrumbing This is the act of having just enough communication with someone to make them think you’re interested while knowing you’re not. If someone is dropping “crumbs” instead of initiating “full blown meals”, they’re probably not that into you. F is for F**kboy This describes a man who intentionally deceives, manipulates, lies, coerces, and generally brings misery to the people he’s romantically involved with. F**kpeople exist in all genders, it’s just that f**kboys are the most common because it’s rare for a woman to lie about wanting a relationship to get a man into bed.
J is for Jel Short for jealous. Being “well jel” is not always a bad thing. For example, looking at your partner and believing that other people might find them attractive is a good thing. But watch out for anything beyond that. It’s a huge red flag if a partner’s jealousy begins to restrict what you do or wear.
N is for Negging Negging is a tactic recommended by horrible YouTube pick-up artists whose aim is to teach men how to get women into bed. It all stems from the book The Game . Men make negative comments, backhanded compliments or outright criticisms to make the woman feel insecure and therefore chase their own validation.
R is for Raw Used to describe sex without condoms. “Going in raw” would indicate unprotected sex. The term is often used when talking about sex disrespectfully.
