Dating during the pandemic is tough stuff.

How does one kindle something with a crush when we have to stay socially distant, wear masks that cover most of our faces, avoid touching, and remain outdoors during the winter months? It may not even seem worth the trouble for some people.

But one TikToker found a workaround, and the internet is going wild about it.

Wendy Adriaens, of Belgium, rehabilitates ostriches on her farm and often posts videos of her sill, long-necked friends on her TikTok page. As the self-dubbed "Ostrich Whisperer," Adriaens has amassed dozens of the clips, pulling in thousands of views for each.

But Adriaen's recent video showed her on an outdoor date with an ostrich. As the clip showed, she laid out a blanket, sat down with her feathery companion, and even shared a long hug--well, at least a neck rubbing.

Oh, and the whole clip had the theme music from Braveheart playing in the background, which turned out to be a remarkably romantic choice.

The clip, seen by millions, launched Adriaen's TikTok presence from niche animal content into the universal realm of viral internet attention, Daily Dot reported.

Fortunately, Adriaens was there to weigh in and set the record straight.

Because Adriaens could only speak from her own personal experience, we'll never truly know just how romantic that date was for the ostrich.

At least plenty of people watching the clip know exactly how they felt—brightened by some adorable love.

MTG Just Made A Very Telling Observation About MAGA Apparel As Trump Superstore Goes Out Of Business

The bloom is off the rose, so to speak, for the MAGA movement started by reality TV star and bankruptcy-plagued businessman turned political grifter Republican President Donald Trump. While Trump, his family, and his cronies have made billions off his presidencies, most of his MAGA minions saw their bills increase and their assets deplete.

Economic hardship, Trump's longtime friendship with convicted child sex traffickers Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, his broken promise to release the Epstein files, and his war with Iran at the behest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu after promising no new wars if elected, have led all but his most diehard acolytes to ditch their MAGA hats, flags, and banners.

Laura Ingraham Just Mocked Jon Ossoff Over His 'Pancake Bronzer'—And It Backfired Immediately

Fox News host Laura Ingraham was called out for her hypocrisy after she attacked Georgia Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff for wearing what she referred to as "pancake bronzer" despite supporting President Donald Trump, who wears makeup all the time.

People can only speculate what brand of makeup or bronzer Trump uses on a daily basis, but there's a reason why he's been nicknamed "the orange man," "Agent Orange," and even "Mango Mussolini"—the color of his face is really, really hard to miss given he's photographed all the time.

Darline Graham Just Gave Her 'Honest' Answer To A Live TV Debate Question About National Security—And It's Laughably Bad

Darline Graham, the sister of late Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, was widely mocked for a response she gave to a question about national security during Tuesday night's debate.

Senator Graham died on the evening of July 11 after returning from an official visit to Ukraine. According to a preliminary finding from the medical examiner, shared by his office, Senator Graham died after suffering an aortic dissection—a tear in the inner wall of the aorta—linked to hardening of the arteries.
