From RomComs to RomCons
Why we used to laugh at love… and now we’re scared of it.
For decades, Hollywood taught us that love was quirky, hopeful, clumsy, magical.
But our culture has shifted. True crime replaced romance.
Investigation replaced infatuation.
RomComs were about falling in love.
RomCons are about protecting yourself from it.
Today, people don’t ask: “Do they like me?”
They ask: “Are they real?”
Instead of butterflies, we feel background checks.
Instead of meet-cute, we get meet-catfish
RomConned exists because modern dating changed.
Real love still exists — but we need tools, not fairy tales, to find it safely.
We’re not killing romance — we’re rescuing it from predators.
#iTrusted
Every con begins with one thing: trust.
Not stupidity.
Not weakness.
Not greed.
Trust.
We are wired to trust.
Human connection depends on it.
Predators exploit it.
Victims don’t lose because they were careless.
They lose because they did the most human thing:
they trusted someone who chose to harm them.
When victims say #iTrusted, they are not confessing guilt — they are reclaiming dignity.
It reframes the narrative:
• from “I fell for it” → to “I trusted like any human would.”
• from “I should have known better” → to “They should not have lied.”
Trust is not a flaw.
Exploitation is a crime.
