Cuckolding refers to the act of being deprived of one's partner or lover, often due to infidelity. In the context of childhood friendships, cuckolding can take on a different meaning. It may refer to the feeling of being replaced or supplanted by someone else, often a romantic partner or a new friend. This sense of cuckolding can be particularly poignant during summer, when social interactions and friendships are more pronounced.
The rise of social media has significantly altered the way we experience and share summer memories. Platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and Snapchat allow users to curate highlight reels of their summer adventures, often creating unrealistic expectations and promoting feelings of FOMO (fear of missing out). For cucked childhood friends, social media can serve as a painful reminder of their friends' happiness and seemingly perfect relationships.
