"Excuse me stewardess... I speak "Dating"!

Matchmaking and Dating terms for the modern dater.
Matchmakers and daters alike have tons of new dating terms to make dating even more
difficult. Our professional matchmaker Mallory Love breaks them down for you.


If you think attorneys speak a funny language ("Legalese") then wait till you see the terms that professional Matchmakers deal with.

Welcome to the wild world of modern dating, where finding the perfect love match means mastering a whole new language. So, whether you're back on the market or just keeping up with the times, here’s your cheat sheet to the top 10 dating terms that are as fun as they are confusing. Buckle up, it's going to be a snarky ride!

1. Cuffing

Ah, cuffing season. That magical time of year when singles suddenly want to become doubles. As the leaves fall and the temperatures drop, so do people’s standards. It’s all about finding someone to cuddle with through the winter months—even if they're more of a temporary shelter than a forever home.

2. Breadcrumbing

This one’s for the Hansel and Gretels of the dating world. Breadcrumbing is when your potential boo leaves a trail of digital crumbs (texts, DMs, likes) just enough to keep you hungry for more but never enough to lead to a real feast. It’s the carb diet of dating!

3. Ghosting

Boo! Did you get scared? Because that’s how fast ghosters disappear. One day, you're planning your dream vacation, and the next, they've vanished faster than free samples at a cheese shop. No calls, no texts, just the eerie silence of the ghosts of relationships past.

4. Benching

Think of this as the sports strategy of dating. You’re not exactly out of the game, but you’re definitely not playing in the big leagues. Benching is when you're kept around "just in case" the first string doesn’t work out. Remember, nobody dreams of being a backup dancer!

5. Orbiting

Ever broken up with someone but they still haunt your Instagram stories? That’s orbiting. They keep you in their social media solar system, close enough to see everything you do, but far enough never to talk. It’s the cosmic ballet of the ex-files.

6. Pocketing

If you’ve never met their friends, family, or even their cat—you might be getting pocketed. It’s like being a secret snack that never gets to come out of the bag. Fun for a bit, but eventually, you just want to be part of the main course!

7. Situationship

More than friends, less than lovers, and nowhere near a relationship. A situationship is that ambiguous sea of "what are we?" without any land in sight. It’s perfect if you love sailing the ocean of uncertainty!

8. Love Bombing

If it feels like you’re in a romance movie because everything’s moving too fast and too furious, you might be getting love bombed. This whirlwind of over-the-top affection is explosive, and not always in a good way. Strap in, it’s a bumpy flight!

9. Haunting

Just when you thought ghosting was spooky, along comes haunting. This is when an ex-lover likes your photos or watches your stories after ghosting you. They don’t want to be with you, but they sure want to see what you’re up to. It’s like having a personal, romantic poltergeist!

10. Gaslighting

Last but not least, the mind game champion: gaslighting. This one’s where your potential partner manipulates you into questioning your own sanity. They'll deny things they've said, twist your words, and generally try to make you feel like you're losing your grip on reality. Remember, if they say the sky’s green and the grass is blue, it might be time to run!

So there you have it, folks! The dating world might be a labyrinth, but now you’re equipped with a map and a good dose of humor. Whether you’re swiping, liking, or just mingling, keep these terms in your back pocket (just don’t let anyone pocket you). Happy dating!

Find your perfect love match today and skip the "dating with translator"!

Stay tuned for Part 2!

Boo! Did you get scared? Because that’s how fast ghosters disappear. One day, you're planning your dream vacation, and the next, they've vanished faster than free samples at a cheese shop. No calls, no texts, just the eerie silence of the ghosts of relationships past.

4. Benching

Think of this as the sports strategy of dating. You’re not exactly out of the game, but you’re definitely not playing in the big leagues. Benching is when you're kept around "just in case" the first string doesn’t work out. Remember, nobody dreams of being a backup dancer!

5. Orbiting

Ever broken up with someone but they still haunt your Instagram stories? That’s orbiting. They keep you in their social media solar system, close enough to see everything you do, but far enough never to talk. It’s the cosmic ballet of the ex-files.

6. Pocketing

If you’ve never met their friends, family, or even their cat—you might be getting pocketed. It’s like being a secret snack that never gets to come out of the bag. Fun for a bit, but eventually, you just want to be part of the main course!

7. Situationship

More than friends, less than lovers, and nowhere near a relationship. A situationship is that ambiguous sea of "what are we?" without any land in sight. It’s perfect if you love sailing the ocean of uncertainty!

8. Love Bombing

If it feels like you’re in a romance movie because everything’s moving too fast and too furious, you might be getting love bombed. This whirlwind of over-the-top affection is explosive, and not always in a good way. Strap in, it’s a bumpy flight!

9. Haunting

Just when you thought ghosting was spooky, along comes haunting. This is when an ex-lover likes your photos or watches your stories after ghosting you. They don’t want to be with you, but they sure want to see what you’re up to. It’s like having a personal, romantic poltergeist!

10. Gaslighting

Last but not least, the mind game champion: gaslighting. This one’s where your potential partner manipulates you into questioning your own sanity. They'll deny things they've said, twist your words, and generally try to make you feel like you're losing your grip on reality. Remember, if they say the sky’s green and the grass is blue, it might be time to run!

So there you have it, folks! The dating world might be a labyrinth, but now you’re equipped with a map and a good dose of humor. Whether you’re swiping, liking, or just mingling, keep these terms in your back pocket (just don’t let anyone pocket you). Happy dating!

"Excuse me stewardess... I speak "Dating"!

Matchmaking and Dating terms for the modern dater.
Matchmakers and daters alike have tons of new dating terms to make dating even more
difficult. Our professional matchmaker Mallory Love breaks them down for you.


If you think attorneys speak a funny language ("Legalese") then wait till you see the terms that professional Matchmakers deal with.

Welcome to the wild world of modern dating, where finding the perfect love match means mastering a whole new language. So, whether you're back on the market or just keeping up with the times, here’s your cheat sheet to the top 10 dating terms that are as fun as they are confusing. Buckle up, it's going to be a snarky ride!

1. Cuffing

Ah, cuffing season. That magical time of year when singles suddenly want to become doubles. As the leaves fall and the temperatures drop, so do people’s standards. It’s all about finding someone to cuddle with through the winter months—even if they're more of a temporary shelter than a forever home.

2. Breadcrumbing

This one’s for the Hansel and Gretels of the dating world. Breadcrumbing is when your potential boo leaves a trail of digital crumbs (texts, DMs, likes) just enough to keep you hungry for more but never enough to lead to a real feast. It’s the carb diet of dating!

3. Ghosting

Boo! Did you get scared? Because that’s how fast ghosters disappear. One day, you're planning your dream vacation, and the next, they've vanished faster than free samples at a cheese shop. No calls, no texts, just the eerie silence of the ghosts of relationships past.
