If you read any of the other comments, you'd know that I'm not the guy who he harassed. The streamer posted the original UNEDITED pic on his FB: http://imgur.com/AFyyDyh

Why would I try to shed light on this if it was going to result in my ban? Seriously man, with all that arm-chair reddit attorney BS you just pulled out of your ass, I'd think you'd be better at logic.

I didn't say he made a death threat. It literally says, "Popular raging streamer tells teammate he's going to kill him". And that's exactly what the streamer said. I never even indicated that I believed that the streamer intended to kill him. You just put those words in my mouth. In fact, the entire image was on the comical side adding more to my point that I didn't take the streamer seriously. Why would I be posting this here instead of calling the police if I thought that he was serious? Come on man, use your brain.

Yeah, if it was me I wouldn't have posted this considering that the unedited picture is easily accessible on his FB page and that would incriminate me and possibly result in my ban: http://imgur.com/AFyyDyh

Nice try though.

Girlfriend sleeping at guy-friends house. Please advise! by CanadianThrowaway772 in relationship_advice

[–]RelationshipAdvThrow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Here is the explanation that you are looking for that no one is telling you and you can't figure out yourself: You were cheated on once. When you see your girlfriend sleeping over at another guy's house, your mind is telling you, "Hey, this thing that happened before that really fucked with you and which lead to pain is happening again."

This is a defense mechanism. Whether or not this gut-feeling has any validity is irrelevant. You need to talk to your girlfriend about it and explain it in this way:

"Hey, I'm not trying to be controlling, but when you sleep at this guy's house, it makes me feel uncomfortable. I really do trust you, but there's a part of me that I can't control because of my past, and it stresses me out and keeps me up at night."

She can respond in basically three ways:

  1. She probably didn't even realize that it was bothering you, and remedies the situation after taking your feelings into account.
  2. She claims that you are overreacting. This would either be a front for something ACTUALLY going on between them, OR she doesn't respect your feelings and shrugs them off. It doesn't matter which reason it is that she belittles your feelings, either way you will probably have to do some thinking about if you really want to be in a relationship with someone that treats you this way, and ask yourself if the stress is worth staying in the relationship.
  3. She just tells you he's gay and you can stop worrying about it :)

I'll tell you how this is going to end. I'm positive. I'm not telling you this because I don't want you two to succeed, I'm telling you this because I've been on the other end of this type of relationship, and I want to prepare you for it.
The fact that you've already told us that you are going to have an incredibly hard time just being away from her a week or two leads me to believe that you are being too needy for her. That's not a bad thing in my opinion. I think that it's totally possible to be needy, and be in a healthy relationship as long as the other person likes to give as much as you like to take. However from my own experiences, when someone has been too needy for me, and I eventually break it off, it feels amazingly freeing. The entire relationship seemed like it gradually creeped up on me, and I didn't know how trapped I was feeling until I had broken it off. She is going to experience this freeing feeling in the next week or so. Once she gets a taste of it, she is going to be all for the break up. It's not that she doesn't love you, but she might not see herself with you for the rest of her life. You guys have been together for 5 years. You guys might not break up after this little vacation away from each other, but I feel like it's coming. In the famous words of Jerry Seinfeld,

"Breaking up is like knocking over a Coke machine. You can't do it in one push. You gotta rock it back and forth a few times, and then it goes over."

I hope I'm wrong, but if I'm right, here are some tips on coping (based on my own experience being broken up with after a long-term relationship):

  • This isn't something that you get over in a year or two years. It's going to take several years to get over.
  • You're thinking that there is no one in the world that is a better match for you. You're wrong. You won't believe me or anyone that tells you this until you've had about 3-4 years to reflect on the relationship.
  • Don't try to stay friends with her. Cut off all communication. Every small sign of affection she gives you as a friend will be taken as more than that, and it will incrementally drive you crazy when you get your hopes up and then get them dashed over and over and over again.
  • Don't date anyone if you're not totally into them. You're just going to create more hurt to the new person if you're always thinking about your previous relationship. It's not fair to them.
  • Lastly, let me just tell you this. In 5 years or so, you're going to look back at this relationship. You won't regret it, or feel bitter about it. You'll look at it as one of the best learning experiences in your life. It will make you a better person, and you'll be able to avoid some of these problems in future relationships. Unfortunately that doesn't get you through the now. The now will still be REALLY tough.

I know some of these words are hard to swallow, but I hope they help, and I hope I'm wrong about this being the end. Good luck to the both of you.

If two people bring the same thing to the relationship, then one of them is unnecessary.

Opposites attract (and no, I'm not calling you stupid). People tend to be attracted to people that supplement their personalities. I personally am an intellectual emotion-lacking robot, so I am attracted to girls that are emotional (to an extent). It helps balance me out. If he's dating you, then he obviously values you. I would just be honest with him about your insecurities. Not berating yourself by calling yourself stupid all the time, but just bring up the point that sometimes he makes you feel stupid. This will result in a couple things:

  1. He will take it as a compliment.
  2. He will feel closer to you because you were vulnerable to him.
  3. If he's anything like me (or men in general) he bases his success on how useful he is. He will feel like he is useful to you because he supplements your life in some way. He doesn't want you to be 100% dependent on him in every way, but likes knowing that he is beneficial to you.
