What is the viral orange peel TikTok theory?

You know how sometimes, simply because they stopped by the store on their way home, your partner gets your favourite ice cream without your having to ask? Or when you ran out of beans and they shared their morning cup of coffee with you? all those minor details that don't appear to matter. These, then, form the cornerstone of the popular orange peel theory on TikTok. According to the orange peeling theory, doing little deeds of kindness and having a partner who is prepared to help are signs of a happy relationship. "If someone asks you to peel their orange, you might think, 'They're perfectly capable of doing that themselves; that's not a big deal,'" noted TikToker @neanotmia in a breakdown of the trend. Peeling the orange may not be the literal task at hand. They are requesting a modest favour from you in order to see how you respond and determine whether to ask for more in the future. It will be clear from your response to this seemingly insignificant request how you will handle larger demands down the road. In a post on the trend, TikTok user Anna Birmingham underlined that responding to such requests involves more than just peeling an orange. "Even something so tiny like that reveals so much about their attitude towards you and your relationship," the speaker said.  Birmingham emphasised the idea that service projects, no matter how big or little, are acts of compassion that come with no strings attached. According to her, "[It's about] wanting to do things for people to see them happy, even if it annoys you or if it benefits you in any way." In the end, that is real, unadulterated, and unconditional love.In reality, the "Orange Peel Theory" is a "test" to determine if your relationship is a keeper.

Here's how the exam operates: Give an orange to your companion. However, do not ask them to peel it for you. It's an indication that your lover is genuinely in love with you if they do it all by themselves.
