Cobwebbing, a new dating term, involves clearing away reminders of past relationships to make space for new connections. Unlike ghosting or breadcrumbing, it’s a healing practice of removing emotional ‘cobwebs’ like old photos and keepsakes. This intentional process helps individuals move forward by setting emotional boundaries and taking small, consistent steps towards healing. In our fast-paced swipe-and-scroll dating world, trends come and go faster than the relationships themselves. But cobwebbing stands out because it’s not a game or a tactic— it’s a healing practice.
