As Valentine's Day 2024 approaches, a number of TikTok couples challenges are popping up on the internet. While many of these viral videos gave way to adorable and wholesome interactions between partners, some didn't. From some ketchup challenge videos that end in goodbyes to other orange peel theory tests that sometimes lead to heartwarming results, the new year is full of these trending Tiktoks.
Below are four of these challenges that have taken social media by storm and garnered millions of views within days.
Trending TikTok Couple Challenge 2024
ketchup challenge
It's a crazy viral TikTok challenge where women spray ketchup on kitchen counters and tables. In response to an unexpected outburst, they wait for their male partners to clean up the mess. The results were unprecedented and dire.
Although wiping the table is as simple a task as possible. A TikTok video reveals that the man keeps circling and struggles to get a clean result. Many people frequently took out paper napkins to help themselves. But the dirty display somehow escalated into an even messier scene with the men spreading table condiments in all directions.
You can tell from the comments what kind of results women are expecting. If the man can clean up the mess without further messing up the scene, people will consider him the “right choice.” However, when things go wrong, user comments often lightheartedly criticize the situation, demanding that women who don't even know how to deal with spilled ketchup dump their partners.

orange peel theory
This is another simple viral TikTok challenge for couples, but it aims to determine if your love is real (all with good humor). According to the rules of his TikTok theory, if your partner peels the fruit before giving it to you, it symbolizes their commitment to you. While many scoff at the idea that oranges define the strength of a relationship, others believe this fairly simple task indicates the importance of “the little things.”
As many people often say, “actions speak louder than words”, this simple action can also be seen as revealing your partner's attitude towards you. Small acts of service go a long way in expressing the true depth of someone's heart.
However, not having high expectations also plays a big role in the process of asking for an orange as a way to test whether your partner will give you a peeled orange. Kind note: Testing remains a healthy indicator of affection as long as you leave it alone.
Moon Phase Soulmate Trend
In addition to the previous addition as one of several newly introduced TikTok couple theories, the moonphase soulmate trend is another popular trend. It is sought after by many TikTok users to determine your compatibility with that special someone.
This takes into account the astrological concept that the phase of the moon at the time of birth influences a person's personality. Therefore, it also affects your compatibility with others. In order to be classified as a “moon phase soulmate,” each individual's moon phases must match.
So how does the TikTok trend work? People rely on online apps to find out what happens when their natal moon phase matches that of their partner or crush. I am. The majority work on the assumption that the resulting combination should create a full moon. On the contrary, some believe that both moon phases should be the same.
The result is multiple interpretations of the same thing, and no firm solution is promised. (Again, remember to discount these trends by subtracting your rigid expectations.)
Challenge to name a woman
This trend has led to women suddenly asking their male partners for the woman's name. The name of the challenge is self-explanatory, but what comes next in response is all a combination of hilarious comedy. As you might expect, there is no right or wrong answer to this question. But the nature of this challenge reveals the only answer the woman is looking for: her own name.
A popular argument holds that the only correct way to answer this is for the man to reveal his lover's name. Therefore, it means that they are the “first woman” that comes to mind. Nevertheless, when asked about this out of the blue, men often end up speaking random names and sending their partner into interrogation mode.
