Misc on suicide watch....dey want that GOLDEN RETRIEVER if you wanna get up in those sugar guts
Golden retriever men are the new heartthrobs: Women are obsessing over soft, excitable and friendly men like Sam Thompson and Tom Holland after Taylor Swift started dating Travis Kelce
The global trend has women longing for men with a golden retriever personality
The latest global dating trend has singles seeking out a golden retriever boyfriend - fun-loving, doting, and eager to please.
The reign of bad boys and alpha males is apparently over. Instead, women long for a warm and affectionate partner that's emotionally available and loving- otherwise known as a golden retriever boyfriend.
Brits only have to turn on I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here to see golden retriever energy radiating out of Sam Thompson, 31, who bounces around the camp, and presumably continues to do so back home with girlfriend Zara McDermott, 26.
Across the pond, pop sensation Taylor Swift, 33, ditched small-breed type Matty Healy for the softer golden retriever, Travis Kelce, 34.
With a passion for home comforts while still loving their mums, the Golden Retriever boyfriend is on the rise among non-celebrities too.
A golden retriever boyfriend is defined as 'a significant other that is easy going and makes it fairly simple to maintain a happy and fulfilling relationship,' according to Gen Z language bible, Urban Dictionary.
Though the dating trend has recently taken over pop culture, it's nothing new.
Tom Holland's longstanding relationship with Zendaya, 27, prove just that.
American actress Zendaya has been in a relationship with the British sweetheart for some three years.
Tom isn't alone though, there's a whole raft of gentler, sweeter souls capturing hearts.
And in more recent times, Sam Thompson, who originally found fame on Channel 4's Made in Chelsea, has propelled the trend into the spotlight.
Social media users have flocked to X, formerly called Twitter, to associate Sam with the trend- and use it to block out any hate directed his way.
One said: 'Sam Thompson is such a golden retriever, I swear. #ImACeleb.'
A second added: 'How are people disliking Sam Thompson? He's such a fun golden retriever energy. #ImACelebrity'
A third wrote: 'Sam Thompson is just a golden retriever puppy isn't he...#ImACeleb'
A fourth said: 'Is that Sam Thompson really like that? He's like a Golden Retriever in human form.'
Another wrote: 'Sam Thompson resembles a giddy golden retriever #somuchlovetogive'
London-based dating coach Hayley Quinn said the traits associated with 'bad boys' wear off quickly.
Speaking to HuffPost, she explained: 'It's not difficult to see the appeal of a golden retriever boyfriend,' she told HuffPost, describing the type as 'caring, reliable and emotionally available.'
'The truth is that whilst certain traits we'd associate with 'bad boys' such as confidence and assertiveness can be viewed as attractive, long-run good partnership qualities of being caring and considerate win out,'
'There's often a gap between what makes us attracted to someone enough to go on a first date with them, to what makes us choose them as a long-term partner,' she added.
Elsewhere, Travis Kelce's public adoration for his mother, Donna, made social media fans liken him to a golden retriever.

Gen Z has to be the most brain-dead, retarded generation ever. They keep making these nonsensical terms over trivial stuff. Just date whoever the fuk you want. You don't have to make a name for everything.
RIP Pedro Suarez Vertiz. Te queremos Hermano
If your right leg is Thanksgiving and your left leg is Christmas, can I come and visit you between the holidays?
