TikTok has brought endless iconic and quirky trends this year, such as \u2018Teenage Dirtbag,\u2019 \u2018One Thing About Me,\u2019 \u2018I get guys,\u2019 and many more. The latest one sweeping the short-form app is the \u2018I never meant to break your heart\u2019 trend, which has already evolved into something quite bizarre.

They would then lock eyes with their \u2018love interest,\u2019 as they start moving in slow motion. The slow-mo portion is timed to the lyrics of \u2018Up\u2019, \u201cI never meant to break your heart.\u201d However, the trend has now turned into parodies of the sexy moments, as people are sharing videos of themselves acting like an animal, such as a wolf or worm, marching along when they eventually encounter their love interest. TikTok trend evolves into parodies In a viral video with over 12.7 million views, TikToker stinkyasher played a wolf during a hunt when he looked into the camera as if the viewer is the other wolf that caught his eye. \u201cPOV: we\u2019re wolves and I make contact with you while on a hunt,\u201d he captioned the video. Other versions include earthworms, sloths, snakes, and even head lice.
