Scrooging
Ah Scooge. I’m sure we all know a few. If you’re not familiar with the story, Ebenezer Scrooge is the main character from the Charles Dickens’ novella, A Christmas Carol. He notoriously starts the story hating Christmas and his tale has become a holiday staple. Now, he’s also inspired one of the Christmas dating terms. Scrooging is basically when someone dumps you before Christmas, simply so they don’t have to get you a gift. Yup, a merry time indeed! You can usually see the signs of this happening, if they start to distance themselves before the holidays. Fun. If you want to see how someone feels about Christmas when dating, check out CLiKD!

Snowglobing
Let’s be honest. There are some pretty common dating terms out there. There’s ghosting, breadcrumbing and benching, to name a few. However, snowglobing is a whole other level, even for a Christmas dating term! So, what exactly is it? Well, this is when the person you’ve been dating uses the holiday season to trick you into thinking things are more serious between you than they actually are. As if that isn’t bad enough, they take it a step further by giving you the perfect fairy-tale romance for all of December and come January, they’re giving you the boot. Outrageous!

How can a snowman inspire a Christmas dating term?! Well, you’d be surprised. Snowmanning refers to a Christmas fling that just fizzles out once the season is over, like snow melting. This is actually a pretty common occurrence. People get swept up in the magic of the season or they look for someone purely for this time of year, so they won’t feel alone. With the way things have been going this year, there may be more snowmanning than usual…
So, there you have it! 3 Christmas dating terms that’ll make you feel festive. Did it work? Are you readier for the holidays now? Regardless, take care of yourselves this Christmas and we hope that you’re able to connect with family and friends in the way that’s safest for you all.
