Because abuse fucks you up and makes decision making really damn hard. Case in point - being able to write that letter and still ask the question at the end. It’s blindingly obvious from our perspective that the situation is FUBAR, but it’s a lot harder to see that when it’s happening to you.

My opinion is best summed with a gif.

Part of how emotional (and physical) abusers get away with what they do is mind-fucking their victims and their emotions so hard they start to wonder if maybe they’re crazy for thinking there’s a problem.

You have a beef with my cats, you get the fuck out of my house.

I can’t get enough Dr. NerdLove.

To be fair, I think what he means is that he’d like to be able to translate his confidence online into just general confidence. Which is understandable! Who DOESN’T want to just feel comfortable in their own skin?

dump her right the hell now.

Long Live The League!

She didn’t ‘betray’ you because you weren’t actually together.

I’m not sure why AWF is mad that she is meeting people “without telling [him]”. She’s a grown woman, and I don’t see why she needs to tell her boyfriend everything she does.

Big streamers/youtubers have fan meet-ups outside of conventions all the damn time. This guy is freaking out without having any proof at all. Hell, she trusted her bf enough to tell him about the creepy underwear guy (and her declining him) in the first place. She doesn’t need to tell him about every time she meets a…

I think she is more worried about her career then just craving attention. How can you be a celebrity if you treat your fans like shit and won’t ever do meet and greets? So she probably figured it would be okay to meet the guy so long as she rejected overly romantic gestures like the lingerie. I do think she should…

For all you know, her declining his proposition was met with, “okay, cool”, and he’s going to a scheduled fan meet-up. You’re going to implode a whole relationship off her being a normal professional twitch streamer?

Meeting fans IS her professional life, if she’s looking to make it big on Twitch. It’s perfectly normal.

Lingerie guy is completely out of line, and she shouldn’t have met with him. But her boyfriend seriously needs to get over himself and be happy for his partner. Like meeting with her fans as a minor celebrity is not showcasing a lack of integrity, that’s part of the jobs. Celebrities need to interact with fans, it’s…

Siiiick illustration. Kudos Ms. Jacoby.
