Sunset Clause Trend Emerges in Indian Dating to Define Relationship Timelines

A new dating trend called the 'sunset clause' is gaining popularity among young urban Indians, where couples set a predetermined expiration date for their relationship to avoid prolonged uncertainty. Surveys by dating app QuackQuack indicate that around 37% of metro and suburban daters adopt this approach to maintain emotional clarity and prevent heartbreak. While some view it as a practical way to manage expectations, others find it overly clinical or emotionally detached, reflecting evolving attitudes toward commitment and situationships in modern dating.
