What’s this here orange peel theory ?

And yes peel an orange for his other half was a real proof of love? This is the principle of “orange peel theory”, a phenomenon that has grown quite a bit on social networks recently and on TikTok in particular! Users of this social network explain that achieving small everyday gestures (like peeling an orange for your partner spontaneously, without the partner having asked) would be signs of affection. It’s simple, these little gestures should make life easier or a little brighter. Most important ? Do something for someone else simply out of desire and not out of duty!

Is peeling an orange a proof of love?

In short, the orange peel theory undoubtedly refers to the theory of the 5 love languages, formulated by Gary Chapman, who says that there are 5 ways to ‘prove’ one’s love: rewarding words, quality moments, gifts, services rendered and physical contact. It is the concept of services rendered that echoes the orange peel theory. The idea is that it is through small gestures, daily actions that appear basic and simple but are truly useful that love is shown. Instead of waiting to be asked, we meet the other’s needs without them even having to express them. Preparing coffee for each person, making the other’s favorite meal, helping them with their work… these are services provided that are also considered proof of love by followers of the orange peel theory.

Orange peel theory: it also works for family and friends

Mostly used in romantic relationships, in reality, the orange fluff theory also works for family and friends. Most often, Internet users will share touching anecdotes concerning gestures and attention that their loved ones have shown towards them, some examples:

• Giving the largest piece of a cake (and therefore the most coveted) to a parent, brother or sister may seem trivial but is actually a gesture of affection.
• This also applies to parents towards their children: carrying your son’s backpack home from school is a seemingly innocuous gesture, but nevertheless reveals a deep affection…
• Send a postcard to your friends when you’re traveling or bring back little souvenirs… A way to show your loved ones that you’re thinking of them, no matter the place or the distance.

The Peeled Orange Theory: A Trend That Breaks Relationships

A theory that has become very trendy on TikTok, orange peels have experienced some abuse… Some have started to share their sadness because they feel unloved in their friendly or romantic relationships. Worse ? Others decided to break up with their partner because he had not responded adequately to the test of orange peel theory… Beware of haste: the lack of attention within a couple or a friendship is not necessarily proof of non-existent or missing feelings… We may think that the other does not like enough while simply, it expresses his affection in a different way.
