In fairness, we can see where the trend comes from.

And yes, we know it originates from Marie Kondo's cleaning methods, but it may be good for your love life too. It comes from wanting to get rid of all the things that don't "spark joy," and we all have a few things - or people - that don't bring joy to our lives. You know, the ones that ghost, the ones that stand you up, the ones that cheat and the ones that just don't give you what you're looking for. The trend, which was coined by Plenty of Fish, sees people cutting off love interests if they don't bring them what they need. It's kinda cut-throat as you literally need to cut them out of your life with no contact whatsoever, however it could work. Because, we all want a bit of joy in our lives, right? Meanwhile, another dating trend that comes from a Netflix show is called 'Freeclimbing' and it sounds intense. According to research compiled by Vivastreet, Freeclimbing comes from You and is the act of going deep (and we mean deep) on a person's social media who you plan to potentially date in the future. Going deep on the lurk front may seem like a good idea at the time, but realistically you're going to end up coming across a post or a photo that you don't like. It's in that way that the act can be a tad dodgy or, if you want to get dramatic about it, dangerous. Talkto explains the origin of the trend's namesake, citing Freeclimbing as: “The act of searching through a dating prospect’s social media accounts and going backward in their history. This is characteristically dangerous, just as free climbing is, hence the term.” Makes sense.
