Scuba Dating

Scuba Dating
(verb) /ˈsko͞obə ˈdādiNG/

Definition:
A style of romantic involvement where one person dives way too deep, way too fast — forming intense emotional attachments early on, often before really knowing the other person. Like scuba diving without checking your oxygen tank, it’s risky, immersive, and usually ends with someone surfacing too quickly (and getting hurt.)
Example:
"We’d only been on two dates and he told me he could see us getting married. Classic scuba dating."
"She’s sweet, but total scuba — had our future kids named before we even kissed."

Anti-date

A social engagement with an ex-flame, preferably in a romantic, candle-lit setting, where you examine the relationship in excruciating detail and discuss in unflinching terms... because you just don't give af anymore.

After-effects may include confusion, panic and general sense of overwhelmingness. These may be due to lack of sleep, but more likely because anti-dates are considered a bad practice by the general population.
