BOYFRIEND AIR

There’s a thing trending on TikTok called “boyfriend air.” The term “boyfriend air” refers to when you’re with your boyfriend or significant other for an extended period of time and start to feel dirty, like your hair doesn‘t feel as clean, or your makeup suddenly isn‘t right, or you just feel all-around less put-together.
– Says one TikTokker: “I am so happy people are now talking about boyfriend air, because I actually thought I was going crazy. I spent a lot of time at my boyfriend’s apartment, and I remember taking a shower every night, but wake up thinking, ‘I feel so dirty.’”
– Another: “My hair was getting greasy like crazy. My skin was looking different, my makeup wasn’t staying on right. I was like, ‘What is going on?’ But as soon as I heard about boyfriend air, I totally get it .”
Some responder that maybe it has to do with the unclean way men keep their apartments, and that they don’t wash their sheets, but plenty of people claim the phenomenon also happens during regular hangouts.
* I feel that way when I walk out of a Denny’s.
* How is it the boyfriend’s fault when the girl gets all skanky?
* Good god, how did we ever survive the Middle Ages?
* I’ve also experienced “My Wife’s Friend Suzanne Air,” where Suzanne is in the house for 10 minutes and for an entire week everything smells like her body wash.
