Casual dating might finally be losing its grip. Gen Z is saying goodbye to vague “situationships” and hello to something deeper.

In a world where ghosting is easier than texting back, a growing number of young adults are choosing intentionality over ambiguity. They’re craving clarity, not games — and it’s not just a vibe shift, it’s a movement backed by real data.

According to a recent survey, 82% of Gen Z singles have been heartbroken by a situationship, and more than half say it hurts as much as a real breakup.

The Issue: Once praised for their flexibility, situationships are now being called out for what they often become: confusing, emotionally draining, and hard to let go of. Lack of boundaries and mixed expectations leave people investing deeply in relationships that were never defined.

• Even actor Penn Badgley weighed in on a recent episode of Call Her Daddy, asking, “Is it ever casual?” His take: Someone always cares more—and that imbalance is rarely harmless.

The Response: Gen Z is embracing what they’re calling simmer dating—a slower, more deliberate approach that prioritizes real connection over quick sparks.

• It’s about taking the time to build trust, spot red flags, and see if someone’s truly compatible before diving in. The goal isn’t just to date — it’s to connect with purpose.

👉🏼 Read the full post here to see how dating norms are shifting.

Founders Doing Good:

Reshma Saujani has made a career out of challenging systems that hold women back—first in tech, and now in the workplace at large.

She launched Girls Who Code in 2012 to empower young women with the skills and confidence to break into a male-dominated industry. Since then, the nonprofit has reached hundreds of thousands of girls worldwide and helped shift the narrative around who belongs in tech. But Reshma didn’t stop there.

In 2021, she founded Moms First, a movement to secure paid leave, child care support, and economic equity for working mothers. Her message is clear: moms are the backbone of the economy, and it’s time policy and culture reflect that.

From boardrooms to Congress, Reshma is reshaping the future of work—not just for women, but for families everywhere.

Intentional Habit:

Modern life makes it easy to fall out of touch, even with people we care about. But small moments of connection can be everything. 💭

What: Once a month, reach out to someone you haven’t spoken to in a while—a friend, cousin, former coworker. It doesn’t have to be deep or long. A simple “Hey, how are things?” text or phone call goes a long way.

Why: Intentional outreach nurtures relationships without the pressure of a big catch-up. Research shows that even brief check-ins can strengthen bonds and boost well-being. And let’s be honest—we all love hearing we crossed someone’s mind. 🫶🏼

This tiny habit is a reminder: connection doesn’t have to be time-consuming to be meaningful. One thoughtful message can shift someone’s day—and yours.
