𝘉𝘺 𝘙𝘪𝘢𝘯 𝘠𝘻𝘢𝘣𝘦𝘭𝘭𝘦 𝘊𝘶𝘯𝘢𝘯𝘢𝘯

What even are we? Did I fumble? Was my rizz a W or an L? That was such a red flag.

Terms and conditions do apply. In the Generation Z (Gen Z) dating sphere, everything has evolved into a complex vocabulary of notions that try to define relationships. Such reasons are rooted in interpersonal issues such as the lack of commitment, standards, and the mindset of “right place, right time.” All these require comprehension amid the complexities of love since it branches out after all. But, can’t we stay with the old school “on or off” labels instead?

Past generations had linear definitions of dating—it was between being in the relationship or out of it. It was easier to comprehend like a simple yes or no which made it direct to the point, sometimes being complicated is the middle ground. You wouldn’t think twice about the label unlike nowadays.

Despite this former dating format, Gen Zs have embraced the new way which they created. And, it is more creative. Analogies or literary touches have been added to each term. Breadcrumbing, or the act of keeping one interested without clear intentions, for example, is seen as giving people crumbs of an imparted whole.

The month of love has detonated more emerging terms in the dating scene, some we are yet to fully understand. What is meant by being in a situationship? Or, being ghosted after being lovebombed?

Scrolling through social media, I come across terms that are new to me. Pocketing and Orbiting were the words. After researching the terms, I discovered it meant keeping a relationship a secret and stalking your ex-partner after a break-up respectively. How would I know?

Moreover, the modern dating narrative is a nuanced vocabulary to describe every instance experienced within a relationship. It can start simply in the talking stage whose name explains itself, then a no-label relationship also known as mutual understanding, and hopefully end up as a slow-burn romance, the act in which you take time to discover each other and connect.

On a positive note, these new prevailing methods have set higher standards. People start looking for greener pastures in “green flags” and slowly burn a passionate flame in love. Also, raising self-awareness in the cases of delusionships or “delulu” mindsets. Love is not blind as these new methods promote exploration and self-discovery; raising the bar higher in terms of emotional intelligence.

Subsequently, people are introduced to new dating mechanisms through the emergence of these words. Soft launching and hard launching, whatever works in that applicable moment. Lovers find a way to express themselves in ways that they seem comfortable in and get to show their love.

However, love is not always an open door.

Having a wider vocabulary on modern dating can make it easier to navigate relationships, but it also comes with its challenges. With terms like "ghosting," "situationship," and "breadcrumbing" becoming part of everyday conversations, people have more ways to define their experiences—yet, these labels can sometimes create confusion rather than clarity.

Therefore, overanalyzing every interaction through the lens of internet slang can lead to misunderstandings, unnecessary overthinking, and even rifts between partners. Instead of fostering genuine communication, the pressure to categorize relationships into "W" or "L" moments may cause emotional strain, making it harder to build meaningful connections.

Furthermore, rather than dwelling on the hurdles of Gen Z dating, it is necessary to be educated on the terms. Aside from engaging in informed dating, individuals can avoid making a fool of themselves and navigate relationships with flying colors. They can spot the red flags and set a standard for themselves, it is essential to see the multi-dimensional hues of the relationship.

Dating and relationships are complicated by nature, and in these liberated times, it is a must to date responsibly. As a generation not clueless, we have advanced even in relationship advocacies such as healing eras, embracing solitude, respecting individuality, and living the soft life. More importantly, pushing towards an informed society through s*x education, reproductive health education, consent, and inclusive healthy connections.

Words alone don’t define a relationship. One thing is clear—dating in the Gen Z era is a whole new world. But, at the end of the day, no matter the era, real love isn’t about the vocabulary—it encompasses all uncertainties no matter the definition, with consistency and determination.

Marking the beginning of the most awaited celebration of the year, the Lyceum of the Philippines University – Davao (LPU Davao) officially launched Palaestrica 2025 with an opening ceremony on February 10, 2025, uniting all clusters and setting the stage for the grand festivities of Foundation Week 6.

Kicking off the morning event with high energy was an electrifying drumbeat performance, with students from different colleges in their signature colors and battle-ready banners assembling with their respective clusters to prepare for the institutional parade beginning at the Lycean Way, passing through LPU Drive, around the LPU Davao Showroom, to the Pavilion, and back to Laurel Field.

Commencing the parade, the procession was led by the Davao Merchant Marine Academy College of Southern Philippines (DMMA) Marching Band and the LPU Davao’s Reserve Officers Training Corps (ROTC), followed by LPU Davao’s administrators, faculty, and staff.

Showcasing school pride, College of International Tourism and Hospitality Management and International Culinary Institute (CITHM-ICI) Abnegation Jaguars, College of Engineering (COE) Amity Tigers, College of Arts and Sciences (CAS) Dauntless Warriors, College of Health and Sciences (CHS) Erudite Vipers, Junior College (JC) Divergent Phoenix, and College of Accountancy, Business, and Management (CABM) Candor Dragons proudly marched with their battle cries before gathering in the Laurel Field to welcome the event.

Building on the enthusiasm, the DMMA marching band captivated the audience with a special number, and the opening program officially commenced with Coach Emmanuel “Noli” Ayo, LPU Davao’s Assistant to the President for Sports and Development, delivering his inspiring remark, reinforcing the values of sportsmanship, unity, and excellence that Palaestrica embodies.

Subsequently, the ROTC Silent Drill followed, leaving spectators in awe with a display of discipline and precision. A standout performance by Mr. Tyrone Rosal from the CITHM-ICI Abnegation Jaguars preceded the much-anticipated Saludo competition, a ceremonial performance where representatives from various colleges demonstrated synchronized movements, salutes, and formations as a sign of respect and unity.

Building on the momentum, the ceremonial Oath of Sportsmanship was led by a Davao City Athletic Association (DCAA) Women’s Tennis qualifier, Ms. Sharlene Vega, ensuring that all participants uphold integrity and fairness throughout the competitions. Additionally, Dr. Kenny James P. Merin, the Vice President for Academic Affairs, administered the Oath of Technicals and Coaches, emphasizing the importance of proper officiation in the games.

Highlighting the event, a ritual dance was performed by the LPU Davao Dance Company and Danza Piratas, followed by the torch-lighting ceremony, marking the official commencement of Palaestrica 2025.

With great anticipation, Dr. Jayson Barlan, Chief Operations Officer and Vice President for Institutional Affairs, declared the formal opening of the event, ushering in a week of festivities that continued with a Community Dance, where participants celebrated camaraderie and unity.

Following the Community Dance, anticipation built as the winners of the Saludo Competition were announced. Securing the Champion title, the JC Divergent Phoenix impressed the judges with an outstanding performance, while CABM Candor Dragons earned 1st Runner-Up and the CITHM-ICI Abnegation Jaguars took 2nd Runner-Up.

Concluding the event, the colleges engaged in Larong Pinoy, fostering camaraderie through traditional Filipino games. With an electrifying start, Palaestrica 2025 promises to be a thrilling and unforgettable celebration of athleticism, teamwork, and school spirit at LPU Davao.
