Dating Season

The optimum time of year to date (in the U.S.) begins Feb 15 (after Valentine's Day) and ends shortly before Thanksgiving. Starting a relationship close to February 14th can be awkward on Valentine's Day if you're not REALLY into that person (yet). Also, meeting family around Thanksgiving can prove to be more than a relationship can handle. Lastly, if you're playing the field around the holidays, buying multiple gifts for multiple partners can get very expensive. Plus, being multiple places at once is impossible.

Dude, don't get serious with that chick until Dating Season begins. It's too close to Valentine's Day for you to NOT make a big deal of it.

Dating Season is almost over! You better decide now if you're serious about seeing him because you know he's having his family in town over the holidays.

Come on man, Dating Season is almost over. Be with ONE girl or let 'em both go. You can't keep both of them happy if you're going to continue to be "too busy" during the holidays.

I gotta dump him. Dating Season is almost over and there's no way I can afford the girl's weekend in Vegas AND buy him a Christmas present.

seasonal dating

Seasonal dating is a term used to describe those unwed people who live their lives traveling and exploring the world. They never settle down, so they have "dates" in multiple parts of the world that they visit a couple times, or maybe once, a year. They rotate through their favorite places in the world, seeing their seasonal lovers, and explore some new locations as a way of life.

Lindsay travels to a different country every few months, seeing different men in each country, so her dating lifestyle is described as seasonal dating.

Stealthie

when you're holding up your phone and making faces at it, as though you are taking a selfie, but you're really taking a picture of the person across from you or the wall or anything else that seems interesting but you don't want to be caught dead taking a picture of.

This action is often made more convincing by wiggling the eyebrows or opening the mouth, to pretend you're trying to get a Snapchat filter to work.

FRIEND A: "Did you just take a stealthie of me?"

FRIEND B (turning phone around): "no I was just using snapchat's new filter, see?"

Grindset

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.

“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
