According to a viral post on X by Teeniiola, a lady revealed how her talking stage is now using “style” to get her attention, sparking reactions over modern dating behaviour and emotional games.
Let’s keep it real — this thing people call “style” in talking stage is just unnecessary stress. You’re not even in a relationship yet, but someone is already acting strategic, forming busy, acting unavailable, just to make you chase them. Instead of simple communication, everything becomes a mind game. You start asking yourself questions you shouldn’t even be asking at that stage.
The truth is, it’s not style — it’s fear. Fear of being open, fear of showing genuine interest, fear of being rejected. So people hide behind tactics instead of being real. But what ends up happening is both people start acting, nobody is honest anymore, and something that could have been natural turns into a competition of who cares less.
And that’s where the problem is. Because sometimes the person actually likes you, but instead of showing it clearly, they’re busy trying to “win” you with behaviour that only creates confusion. At the end of the day, you can’t build anything meaningful when everything feels like a performance.
That tweet may sound funny, but it reflects a deeper issue — we’ve normalised emotional games in a stage that is supposed to be simple. And if we’re being honest, no matter how sweet the vibe looks on the surface, anything built on “style” instead of sincerity will always feel incomplete.
