Romantic lens flare

A situation that arises when one or both partners in a romantic relationship are infatuated and distracted by each other that they become oblivious to what is happening in the world around them. It could be they just were not paying attention to their surroundings or they just don’t care. It is not usually done on purpose or to be intentionally mean as they are just distracted.

Luna: Hey Ivan. How are you doing today?
Ivan does not respond to her at all.

Luna: Ivan. How are you doing?
Ivan continues not to respond. Luna turns to Sergio.
Luna: Why is Ivan not responding to me?

Sergio: He is with his girlfriend right now, whom he is easily distracted by. He is probably suffering from a romantic lens flare. I think she will be leaving in a few minutes though, which hopefully he will listen once she leaves.

Actually Romantic

A sarcastic phrase used to describe when someone’s hate or obsession with you crosses into weirdly affectionate territory. Comes from Taylor Swift’s 2025 song “Actually Romantic” on The Life of a Showgirl, where she mocks a rival’s fixation on her by calling it “sweet” and “romantic.”

Basically means: You’re so obsessed it’s kind of flattering.

She’s been subtweeting me for weeks. Honestly? It’s actually romantic.
