Emma Chamberlain critiques modern dating advice found online, addressing the potential harm of popular trends. She begins by dismissing manifestation techniques focused on specific individuals, advocating instead for manifesting general qualities in a partner to avoid disappointment. Chamberlain strongly opposes playing games in relationships, such as waiting to respond to texts or "breadcrumbing," which she views as manipulative and unethical. She also argues against hiding one's feelings to remain mysterious, suggesting that vulnerability is essential for genuine connection. Chamberlain further denounces "shreking," or dating someone considered below one's standards, and advises against prolonging relationships to build resentment or "monkey branching" into new relationships before ending old ones. Finally, she challenges the notion that love should always be easy, emphasizing the importance of growth through conflict, and cautions against conducting "cheating tests" or invading a partner's privacy by checking their phone.
