Tiktok Trend - I’M May, He Is ... - April 2025

The “I’m May, he is...” trend started gaining traction in April 2025 and has quickly become a favorite on TikTok and Instagram Reels.

It’s poetic, emotional, and incredibly visual — using the months of the year to tell personal stories in a way that feels both mysterious and deeply relatable.

If you love storytelling or sharing key moments from your life in a creative way, this trend is perfect for you.

What’s this trend all about?

The trend is called the "I’m May, he is..." trend. It uses months as symbolic representations of people and life phases. The videos usually follow this sequence:

  • “I’m [a month]” — showing yourself
  • “He’s/She’s [another month]” — introducing someone important (often a partner)
  • “Together we’re [a third month]” — symbolizing the relationship
  • Sometimes a fourth line appears: “& we have our [month]” or “and we end [month]” — to show a major life outcome like a baby, wedding, or breakup

The music behind most videos is the emotional original sound by its.glory30, adding depth and mood to every clip.

What kind of videos people are making

  • Example 1: A couple meets, and the girl ends up pregnant — a story of how love turned into family.
  • Example 2: A city view video, sharing a more abstract version of the trend — perhaps reflecting on where a relationship began or ended.
  • Example 3: A girl gets married and has a child — following the story of love, marriage, and family growth.

Want to try it? Here's how

  • Think of a personal story you want to tell — love story, a breakup, family moment, etc.
  • Pick 3 or 4 symbolic “months” for each part of the story. These don’t need to match real dates — go with what feels right or sounds good.
  • Choose 3–4 photos or short clips that match the stages of your story.
  • Use the original sound by its.glory30 — it’s what gives the trend its emotional power.
  • Add text overlays for each part: “I’m [Month]”, “He’s [Month]”, “Together we’re [Month]”, “And now we have our [Month]” or “And we end [Month]”.
  • Keep the text clear and readable, and time it to match the music beats.
  • Post with relevant hashtags like #MayTrend #ImMayHeIs #MonthTrend #LoveStory #fyp #trending

Why this trend works

This trend is successful because it combines simplicity with emotion. Here’s why people love it:

  • Symbolic storytelling: The use of months makes the story feel like a riddle or a poem.
  • Quick emotional impact: Viewers feel something almost instantly — especially with the music.
  • Personal but artistic: Everyone follows the same format, but each video tells a unique life story.
  • Easy to create: You just need a few photos or clips and text — no complex editing.

Tips to make yours stand out

  • Use high-quality images or videos that show real moments.
  • Pick months that have personal meaning (but don’t worry if others don’t “get” it).
  • Don’t over-explain in your caption — let people feel it and wonder a bit.
  • Keep it short, tight, and well-timed with the audio for maximum impact.
  • If the trend gets saturated, try a creative twist — use it for friendship, a pet, or even a personal transformation story.

Final thoughts

Whether you're celebrating love, reflecting on change, or simply sharing your journey, the “I’m May, he is...” trend is a beautiful way to do it. Simple. Poetic. Emotional. Just grab the right clips and press play.
