Signs You May Have Fallen Victim To The ‘Snow-Globing’ Holiday Dating Trend
It seems that every few months, there is a new dating term that you need to be aware of.
If you have recently been broken up with to start the new year, you may have fallen victim to the latest dating trend.
Newly Dating Around The Holidays
The holidays can be an exciting time when you are in a new relationship or have become exclusive with someone.
You are still getting to know one another around one of the more magical times of the year.
All The Holiday Activities
You now have someone to do all of the adorable holiday date activities with.
From watching Christmas movies and going to Christmas parties, to baking shortbread cookies together, having someone to spend the holidays with is the best!
Dumped To Start The New Year
But what does it mean when all of a sudden early in the new year that person who you've just started dating calls it off?
Did they get cold feet or have second thoughts? Or, have you fallen victim to a new dating trend?
You May Have Been "Snow-Globed"
The latest dating trend that's sweeping the nation is called "snow-globing."
This is something different than ghosting or cuffing, or some of the other dating terms that you may have heard of before.
Applies To The Holidays
What makes snow-globing' unique is that it only applies to the time leading up to the holidays.
Other dating terms or fads can happen at other times of the year, but not snow-globing!
Involves Being Led On
One of the traits of snow-globing is that someone in the relationship has led the other person on.
They have made you believe that during the month of December you were in a meaningful relationship.
Together Until New Year's
They have done all of the things that couples do together leading up to the holidays and New Year's.
Things have seemed so good that you might have felt that you were in your own wintery snow globe fairy tale.
You're So Last Year
But sadly, snow-globing involves you being kicked to the curb as soon as the calendar flipped over into January.
It can be pretty abrupt, too, which, for the person inside the "snow globe," can feel like their world is shattering around them.
Time For A Fresh Start
So while things may be a little rough for you right now as you realize that you're a victim of snow-globing, don't fret!
It's a new year which means new beginnings and new potential relationships!
Be The Bigger Person
If this new term sounds a little immature to you, you're not alone.
Learning about the term gave this person flashbacks to their high school days. Have you ever been snow-globed?
