Let’s talk about shipping – the act of rooting for a romantic relationship between two people, whether fictional characters or real-life celebrities. According to a survey by YouGov, 22% of Americans have “shipped” real-life people, and the number is even higher among younger generations. That’s a lot of people who are invested in other people’s love lives!
But let’s be real, shipping real-life people can get a little awkward – especially when you’re bombarding their social media with comments about how perfect they would be together. It’s enough to make you wonder if people need more excitement in their love lives. Either way, it’s a strange hobby, for sure!
