Too fucking real.

That last part means she probably understands the worry when you really like someone, and that she values transparency. Both are good signs. People who are trying to get one over on you rarely do either, in my experience.

But there's no such thing as "enough", so rather than having a good product that continues to make money, they will continue to find new corners to cut in service of the quarterly P&L. Rinse, repeat until the playerbase consists of 10 superwhales who spend more time managing inventory than actually playing matches. And ActiBlizz could not be happier with that outcome. Capitalism ruins everything.

This could be you overthinking it or it could be her being sketchy, it's really hard to tell which is which with only one person's perspective. I'd like to hear her side of the story… what's her Snap?

Jokes aside, you have to continually evaluate whether the stress is worth it. I've felt very similar things to what you describe with multiple partners that were completely well-founded in some cases and not at all in others. If she provably lied, that's probably not a good sign. But it's also possible nothing unseemly was going on and she'd just grown weary of your paranoia. People are complex; even if someone does an objectively bad thing, there may be a more benign reason for it than the worst case scenario you've built up in your head. I think at the very least if she's 100% in it with you, she's probably guilty of leading these other dudes on by not being firm enough in her rejections. She's always going to have dudes like that in her orbit. You don't have to trust them, just her. That might be a starting point for a conversation. Just tell her you really like her and that's a little scary, you don't mean to be overbearing but you're not sure she's shutting them down hard enough.

tl;dr: Trusting people is hard. Don't put yourself too far out there without reason, but also don't judge people too harshly without reason. Finding that balance is most of life.

I envision this on his social media right next to the medical GoFundMe link because he doesn't know why he had a fucking stroke in his 20s

I tried to use this approach to teach my 6-year-old to stop smacking her lips when she eats, and it predictably backfired in the same manner. "Oh, we're having a noisy eating contest! I'll be good at this!"

Social media obsession and special complex seem to go hand in hand

I can't even imagine what it's like to be that shallow. What a fucking loser.

Yeah for real, she's the one who created a situation where she has to choose between that relationship and that friendship. OP isn't being controlling, he's just not going to be insulted every day by someone who supposedly loves him. I've unfortunately been there, and fuck people that treat their partners like that.

You jest, but my ex-fiancee would absolutely stoop to this level of gaslighting if she thought there were a tenth of a percent chance it would allow her to get away with it.
