A new viral trend on TikTok is claiming that small acts of service from your partner, such as peeling an orange for you, are signs of true love. The trend was sparked by a video from popular TikTok baker Jenna (@jennaskates), who broke down in tears when her boyfriend pre-separated egg whites for her without being asked. Many are now trying the 'orange peel theory' to see if their partners truly care for them.
The "invisible string" theory has taken over TikTok, with millions of users subscribing to the belief that people are constantly connected until they meet their soulmate. While some find it entertaining, experts warn against using these theories for relationship guidance as they can be harmful. Even Taylor Swift's song "Invisible String" has been linked to the trend, with some suggesting that she and her boyfriend are connected by invisible strings. With Gen Z being the majority of TikTok users, these theories have the potential to impact how they perceive romantic relationships.
