Internet allows the private to become easily public. Young people have drawn a new line to keep their love lives separate.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">When Danica Manuel ended her\u202ftwo-and-a-half-year\u202frelationship at 23, she thought: What am I going to do now that my relationship\u202fis\u202fover?\u202fShe wanted to get married, but her ex-boyfriend\u202fdidn\u2019t. That was a dealbreaker. Going through a breakup, social media wasn&#8217;t at the front of Danica&#8217;s mind, but it was for her ex. In the middle of their\u202fbreakup,\u202fhe\u202fsaid: \u201cWhat am I going\u202fto do\u202fwith my Instagram now? My Instagram is going to look weird when I\u202fdelete\u202fall the posts that\u202fyou&#8217;re\u202fin.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI definitely think that that struck such a chord with me,\u201d says Danica.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cMoving forward,\u202fI was thinking a lot of different things, but definitely, I don&#8217;t want someone who&#8217;s posting their every move on Instagram.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">Danica, now 25,\u202feventually\u202fmet\u202fher current partner\u202fNico and the couple\u202fgot married last year. The pair run an espresso bar together and her husband maintains an account for the business. Although he has a personal Instagram account, it&#8217;s inactive. She\u202fhard launched\u202ftheir marriage\u202fon Instagram\u202fwith\u202ftheir engagement and wedding photos,\u202fbut\u202fthat was the extent\u202fof\u202fit.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI think\u202fwhy I like hard launching so much, and why so many people choose to do it, is that you can sidestep some of the judgment of your peers and maintain some privacy in an era where people are posting every meal that they have,\u201d Danica says.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/mccs-journalism.gold.ac.uk\/wp\/love-lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2026\/06\/2-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-949\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mccs-journalism.gold.ac.uk\/wp\/love-lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2026\/06\/2-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/mccs-journalism.gold.ac.uk\/wp\/love-lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2026\/06\/2-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/mccs-journalism.gold.ac.uk\/wp\/love-lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2026\/06\/2-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/mccs-journalism.gold.ac.uk\/wp\/love-lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2026\/06\/2-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/mccs-journalism.gold.ac.uk\/wp\/love-lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2026\/06\/2-500x500.png 500w, https:\/\/mccs-journalism.gold.ac.uk\/wp\/love-lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2026\/06\/2-800x800.png 800w, https:\/\/mccs-journalism.gold.ac.uk\/wp\/love-lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/78\/2026\/06\/2.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Danica and her husband Nico. Photo by &nbsp;Krystal Capone \/ Capone and Co. Photography<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">Since hard launching is a\u202frelatively new, internet-specific term, there is no singular definition.\u202fGenerally,\u202fit is\u202fwhen someone publicly reveals their relationship in a clear, unmistakable way. This could be a couple photo, a relationship announcement or a caption confirming the partner&#8217;s identity on social media.\u202fSome people may consider merely posting\u202fa photo with their partner\u2019s face in it, whether it be a boyfriend, girlfriend or even a situationship \u2013 a casual, unofficial form of coupling.\u202fDanica\u202fwas intentional with hers: she\u202fposted her engagement and wedding photos after the\u202ffact, and\u202fhad only posted her husband once before she married him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI also hard launched having a\u202fbaby. I\u202fdidn&#8217;t\u202fpost a single thing that I was pregnant,\u201d she says. \u201cI\u202fdidn&#8217;t\u202fpost any pregnancy pictures\u202funtil the\u202fbaby was already born. So, you know,\u202fI&#8217;ve\u202fhard-launched a lot of things, a lot of big milestones.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">In her viral Vogue article from last year, \u202f\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vogue.co.uk\/article\/is-having-a-boyfriend-embarrassing-now\">Is Having\u202fA\u202fBoyfriend Embarrassing Now?<\/a>,&#8221; Chant\u00e9 Joseph writes that more straight women are shying away from the hard launch, however, and opting for a soft launch of their partners on social media. Some refrain from posting them altogether. some do this because they are worried about being branded as conservative. Others are embarrased or worried they will break up and be stuck with the photos.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">Evidently, not\u202fall straight women are shying away from a\u202fhard launch.\u202fAnd\u202fit\u2019s\u202falso not just straight women engaging with these concepts. Kenneth, a\u202f23-year-old\u202fMA\u202fcandidate at a University of London college,\u202fregularly posts\u202fhis girlfriend on social media, although she was the first to hard-launch their relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cShe unilaterally took a photo and uploaded it,\u201d he says. \u201cIt was something that I would have gotten around to asking, but her doing that made it a lot easier.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">The pair have been together for nine months, and after five months, she decided to\u202ftake the bull by the horns\u202fand hard launch him on social media. \u201cWe&#8217;d been dating for long enough at that point where it was kind of okay,\u201d says Kenneth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">Like Joseph, who classifies a\u202fsoft-launch\u202fas subtle, Kenneth says: \u201cI think a soft launch\u202fleaves some guessing to the viewer. There&#8217;s room for speculation, right?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">He adds: \u201cIt&#8217;s the kind of thing that your friends would crowd around your phone and start asking questions, get a little giddy about,\u202fwhereas\u202fa\u202fhard launch\u202fdoesn&#8217;t have that ambiguity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">As far\u202fas seeing other\u202fpeople\u2019s\u202fsoft or hard launches online, he says: \u201cIn truth, I think\u202fmy reaction as a viewer matters far less,\u202fand\u202fit\u202fdoesn&#8217;t\u202freally mean anything.\u201d\u202fHe\u2019s\u202fhappier for the\u202fperson\u202fbeing comfortable to post the relationship than he is\u202fto react to it.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">Kenneth jokes that\u202fhe\u2019s\u202fbecome the kind of person that he used to hate by posting his partner, though he has warmed to it. \u201cI think it\u202fis\u202fvery sweet\u202fthat someone wants other people to see \u2018look: mine,'&#8221; he says, before adding, &#8220;Not, of course, in a possessive way.\u201d\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">He mentions that in a past relationship, with someone who\u202fdidn\u2019t\u202fhave social media, he once asked her permission to post a photo he took in a museum featuring the back of her head. This fits into the concept of a\u202fsoft launch. Joseph includes this in her list of subtler signs.\u202f\u201cA hand on a steering wheel, clinking glasses at dinner, or the back of someone\u2019s head\u201d all fall under this category according to her Vogue article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI would define a soft launch as something where you don&#8217;t show super defining characteristics of that person, like their face,\u201d says Danica. \u201cI know people like to\u202fsoft launch\u202fby posting pictures of holding hands, or two coffees on the table.\u202fIt&#8217;s\u202fmore subtle, more like innuendo.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI like it.\u202fI think\u202fit&#8217;s\u202fcute, rather\u202fthan the \u2018it&#8217;s official\u2019 post,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">These\u202faren\u2019t\u202fthe only guidelines on the internet, though. On Instagram and TikTok, users can scroll through countless\u202fhow-to videos\u202ftailored to the ways in which they\u202fcan\u202fpost their partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">Influencer Amaya Harvey posted a\u202f<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DRHv0Z9kf4s\/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==\">video<\/a>\u202fof ideas for a\u202fsoft launch. Her main example\u202fis a picture of the person and their partner\u2019s shoes. \u201cPeople are going to be wondering \u2018who is\u202fthat?\u202fIs\u202fthat your man? Is that your friend?\u2019\u202fThey\u2019ll\u202fnever know.\u201d\u202fLike Kenneth said, a\u202fsoft launch\u202fallows room for speculation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">Amaya tells her viewers that many of these ideas are for girls only, and not to tag the person they\u202fsoft-launch\u202fin these posts.\u202fShe also says many of them can only be posted as Instagram stories, or as part of a photo dump, but never alone in the feed.\u202fIt\u2019s\u202fa subtle push to\u202fdecentre\u202fmen\u202fwithout completely\u202fcutting them out of the picture.\u202f<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-block-paragraph\">In the digital era, anyone can be an influencer. Whether a person has 20 or 200,000 followers on social media, the expectation is that every one of them cares about that person\u2019s real life. Whether it be a soft or hard launch, posting a relationship is a surefire way to satisfy followers\u2019 emotional investment. It\u2019s digital PDA, but in this case, everybody <em>does <\/em>want to see it, even if they judge it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-contrast-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-8\" style=\"background-color:#d1dbff\"><strong>How to Soft Launch<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"has-contrast-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color has-gfs-didot-font-family wp-elements-9 wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"background-color:#d1dbff\">1.
