Is this every modern couple?

This meme uses the classic 'couple lying in bed facing away from each other' stock photo template. A woman on the left looks pensive toward her male partner on the right, who is also looking away with a confused, thoughtful expression. Text over the woman shows her internal monologue: first she thinks 'I wonder what he's thinking?', then reveals her solution is to 'ask random strangers on the internet' instead of talking to him directly. Text over the man shows his internal monologue: he first wonders 'Why does she stare at me in bed?', then says he 'is going to ask people I've never met before for their opinions' instead of asking her directly. The joke humorously highlights a common modern relationship trope where partners avoid direct communication with each other, and instead seek input from anonymous internet strangers about their relationship concerns, aligning with the original title asking if this is relatable to all modern couples.

I wonder what he's thinking? I should ask random strangers on the internet
