Do you really know? What is bae-realing, the new dating trend?
Ever since social media came along, dating trends have evolved constantly. They tend to reflect changes in society too. In previous episodes of Do You Really Know, we’ve talked about dawn dating, sneating and ghosting for example.
There are so many different terms out there, and not all of them are positive. Here’s another one you may have heard of recently, in particular if you’re single and use dating apps; bae-realing. You might have started to feel like all these manufactured dates aren’t natural, that they’re unwholesome. If that’s the case, you may well be seduced by the authenticity and even radicalism of bae-realing. It’s been called “a breath of fresh air” by Stylist magazine.
Where does the name come from? Why has bae-realing become a trend now? How can I take part in the trend? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
