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.

They talks about their baes the whole day long, I've never heard them talk about anything else. They are obsessed with them. They have been infected by romanticitis

Romantic minute

When you see your partner after a very long time of not seeing them, which typically occurs after a tour of duty in the military or a year of service that is served far away from your home after college, and you pull them aside for a minute or two to tell them how much you missed them, that you love them, and just to take a chance give your partner a little physical affection considering they may be craving it after not being with you for so long.
Zachary: I’m happy your back from your tour of duty. I am guessing your happy to be back home.
Pedro: Yes, I am happy to be home after such a long time of being away. Would you excuse me and Britany for a minute?
Zachary: Sure.
(Pedro and Britany walk a short distance away. They begin talking to each other quietly. Pedro puts his arms around Britany and kisses her briefly.)

Zachary: Are you guys ready to go?
Britany: Yes, we are.

Zachary: What we were you guys doing anyway? Was something wrong?
Pedro: No, we were taking a romantic minute. I have not seen Britany in a year to a year and half. I really missed her.
Zachary: I see.

Non-romantic situationship

Definition:
A complex, emotionally enmeshed connection between two people who used to date, kind of still do emotionally, but now insist they’re “just friends” while continuing to talk for hours, share intimate life details, flirt occasionally, and confuse everyone in their lives including themselves.

Origin:
Usually evolves after a romantic breakup that failed to properly detach due to leftover fondness, emotional codependency, or an unwillingness to lose access to the only person who truly gets your weird jokes and trauma responses.
- “He’s not my boyfriend—he’s my non-romantic situationship. We only talk every day, share pet custody, and make each other jealous. Totally casual.”
