Soft Launch

Posting subtle hints of a new partner on social media before officially announcing.

Definition

A soft launch is the deliberate, ambiguous reveal of a new relationship on social media — a partner's hand in a brunch photo, a shadow on a date — without saying who they are or that you're together. It's a contained way to acknowledge the relationship publicly without full commitment to a 'hard launch' (the official, identifying post).

Want better photos so soft launch doesn't happen to you?
