    If anyone tells you a soft launch is a foolish idea, just remind them that it鈥檚 actually village people prevention.

    Written By:

    Soft launching a partner on social media is letting people know you鈥檙e not single like the rest of them, without explicitly revealing who you鈥檙e with. You give the people just enough but not too much. 

    Soft launches are great for many reasons, but most importantly because it prevents your village people from doing the most in your relationship. It鈥檒l prevent them from interfering in the following ways.

    Knowing who you鈥檙e with 

    Sometimes, you really don鈥檛 want people to know who you鈥檙e currently in a relationship with. If they do, they start acting weird and moving different to the person. 

    They can鈥檛 cast you if you cheat 

    With a soft launch, you can post multiple people at the same time and people will think it鈥檚 all the same person. When your other partner asks about the image, you can say it鈥檚 a friend or you don鈥檛 know the person.

    Arrow misdirection  

    Any arrow they want to send your partner鈥檚 way won鈥檛 even know where to go because even the village people don鈥檛 know who to send it to. 

    Spreading inaccurate information 

    Because your village people don鈥檛 know who exactly you鈥檙e with, all the gossip they spread about the relationship will be exposed as a lie.

    Denial 

    A soft launch is like a trial period. If the person decides to fuck up during that time, you don鈥檛 have to try too hard to delete the cute pictures you have on your social media. Also, cropping them out will be easier because there鈥檚 barely any part of them in the image. 

    Finding the love of your life
