Maskerading

Fronting that you care about COVID-19 safety precautions for optics or to impress a match.

I was super stoked to find someone who’s also taking COVID guidelines seriously, but she’s totally maskerading! She posted an Instagram story last night and she was at a huge house party

Stalk-blocking

Making your social media accounts private so prospective dates can't creep on you, because hello – no one likes a creeper!

So we haven't even met in person but he already "liked" a bunch of photos deep on my Instagram, and that's when I knew I had to start stalk-blocking.

Fauci-ing

Declining to date someone because you don’t feel they’re taking COVID-19 seriously enough

If I had a nickel for every time I found myself fauci-ing someone this year, I could pay off my student loans.

Proofing

Giving a relationship time to breathe and not rushing into it.

I’ve told my mate Alex that I think him and his new girl need some proofing before they move in together, they don’t know each other very well yet!
