How social media rewired our idea of modern romance!

This week on That Digital Take, Torri opens up about 10 years of love in the era of soft launches, hard launches, aesthetic romance, and algorithm-approved relationships. We’re diving deep into how social media has completely reshaped modern love, and what a decade-long partnership really looks like when your career lives online.

From the pressure to curate picture-perfect moments to the rise of relationship comparison culture, this episode breaks down the realities behind the aesthetics—and the unexpected ways content culture can strengthen (or strain) your connection.

• The Aesthetic of Love: Why “aesthetic romance” isn’t the same as actual romance, and the reality behind those cinematic-looking moments we all double-tap.
• The Performance Trap: How performing your relationship for the internet can kill intimacy—and why some people post their partners while others stay private.
• Relationship Comparison Culture: Engagement by 28, baby by 30, house by 32… why social media makes everyone feel behind, even when they’re not.
• When the Algorithm Becomes the Third Partner: Digital jealousy, parasocial threats, and how your likes/saves/watch history quietly shape your relationship dynamics.
• Money & Love in 2025: The “aesthetic tax,” luxury date-night pressure, curated gifting, and the truth about who pays for the lifestyle we see online.
• What Social Media Actually Gets Right: Representation, therapy talk, diverse love stories, and permission to build a relationship model that works for you.
• Surviving 10 Years While Building a Public Career: Boundaries, private rituals, respecting each other’s “brand,” and choosing steady over cinematic.

Plus, Torri answers YOUR messages, including:

1. “My partner doesn’t post me — is that a red flag?”

2. “Do aesthetic dates matter, or is that social pressure?”

3. “How do you keep the romance alive after the honeymoon phase?”

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by relationship timelines, aesthetic pressure, or the myth of the perfect couple online, this is your episode.
