This isn't about the woman or her husband, more about Reddit and its users.
In this part she has a genuine concern about what her husband is up to.
In this part she finds out the girl is the daughter of the husband from when he was younger.
Clearly everyone has different advice to give depending upon what they know of the situation.
I only bring this up to illustrate the madness of crowds/groupthink/peer pressure and how it influences acceptable choices at any given moment via upvotes and comments.
This is applied to modern journalism regularly to get clicks and increase advertising revenue, which in turn can be funnelled via corporate and political motivations.
Easy example of something more sinister.
We did it Reddit! We manipulated a young woman into destroying her marriage for our own amusement!
Granted, it was all very murky on the part of her husband, but if only she had bothered to talk to him instead of running to the internet for attention and validation.
She didn't need to be manipulated into doing that, but she's certainly not going to turn down the validation of having a bunch of clapping retards encourage her bad behavior.
If she had not gone to Reddit, would she have taken the actions she did?
To be charitable, I am going to say maybe as I do not know her personally and this is a single instance of viewing her behavior, though her ability to jump to conclusions and not communicate with her "perfect" husband do not bode well. She is also young which is also not helpful for making wise or measured decisions.
I do believe that people can be led to stupid choices with enough social pressure, and Reddit is nothing if not a bastion of conformity. Throw in the Reddit penchant for drama and you get the "OMG ur hubby is pedo, divorce and run kween!" response rather than "that seems bad, you should talk to him but let someone know where you are just in case".
She probably would have confronted him sooner, and not tried all that smoothbrained Reddit subterfuge bullshit, if she didn't have the clapping seals to distract her.
Which would have been better as they could have cleaned it up sooner and the husband wouldn't have so much cause to worry she's a schizo psychopath.
I swear Reddit drama whores are only feigning safety concerns when they're always like "don't confront them!", they just hate having their little front row true crime fantasy ruined by people explaining themselves and de-escalating.
On the other hand, hiding your secret long lost lovechild from your wife for half a year because you didn't think they could handle it because of "wedding planning stress" is borderline retarded. Tell her before you get married ya dumbass, if she loses her shit because she's stressed over something pointless, then congratulations you just dodged a bullet at the last second. Don't wait until it's too late to back out cleanly to find out she's a goddamn loon.
I like the part where she immediately jumps to a conclusion and everything about her relationship starts to fall apart so she decides to go to reddit.
I'm no expert on relationships but couldn't she just ask him ? Isn't communication a valuable part of a relationship ?
Then again it is the same kind of annoyance I have when I'm working with women so I guess it's expected.
Also those comments jumping to DANGER!!! Typical reddit I suppose.
With that kind of age gap she's probably in it to steal his resources. Getting him on a felony greatly simplifies that process. It's likely wishful thinking combined with the typical bullshit modern women subject men to.
They would be totally fine with him grooming her into chopping her breasts off though.
Pretty much every sitcom I watched growing up had that problem. It's the reason why I make sure my wife tells me, or understands I am not psychic.
My favorite time was in Home Improvement when Jill is starting to work on her Masters thesis, and take a lot more control of her life. She gets angry at people, and has to learn to calm down. At one point she realizes she is angry because she never actually told Tim about her plans, and he asked for forgiveness because that's how it usually happened. It took a few episodes, but she started to apologize and view her husband in a new light afterwards. The show that was basically the creator of "Men are Dumb" the Comedy, also had the answer to it.
Furthermore, this is prolly fake.
Why do we keep fucking falling for these here? Embarrassingly fake!!
Imagine your marriage is at risk so you update the sub that ruined it in like real time?! Moreso you share the update in the fashion of a dramatic narrative. Come on, fellas.
Because the validity of the story isn't the point, it's how unhinged Reddit gets as per the sheer insanity in the comments that were archived.
My theory is there's an element of this forum that irrationally hates women as much as reddit irrationally hates men so logic sometimes goes out the window.
Ok but what if I rationally hate women?
When you live in strange lands, you never know if someone is faking the strangeness. I knew a guy whose girlfriend dumped him, and broke all contact with him because he wrote a story about his own rape and how people seemed fine with it. Crazy like that makes made up bullshit seem believable and even common.
It is hard to tell what is fake and what isn't nowadays. The internet and media amplify problems to be much bigger than they actually are. I know people with actually healthy marriages. I also know people who don't have healthy marriages, people who are perpetually single, and people who have disappeared off the face of the earth.
He's not here tho.
It goes beyond Imp.
You don't need to make theories as if its some unaware secret. We'll own up to it.
LMFAO that's the first thing she typed! HOLY FUCKING SHIT she started her blogging with an actual meme! This is going to be fucking gold to read I'll need to get a drink to enjoy this properly.
Some people really can't handle social media and should be banned from it for their own protection
Add it to the list which includes the disastrous attempts at finding the Boston Bomber.
This is why you don't go straight to reddit. And "don't confront" only applies if this guy is like a serial killer or something. Even if he was dating a 16 yr old, there's no reason to believe he's dangerous. If you're not for sure, which this lady wasn't having seen only a brief glimpse of his phone, you don't squeal. Since false charges like that are very bad.
If you think your husband is cheating on you with a teenage hussy, you should confront him. People are retards/
I like this guy's style lmao
The comments in the update are even better as they just keep doubling down.
That's rough for the guy though.
If It's a true story then sure, it's rough for both of them.
But whether the story is true or not a good number of Redditors have to sit the hell down and look in the mirror with their compassionate advice for strangers on the Internet.
am I the only one who finds archive.is never loads on IOS?
I don't use Apple, but sorry if it doesn't.
No worries
