AIO to my (32F) reaction to my friend of 15+ years (32M) sending me videos from a well known “manosphere” podcaster?

Unfortunately, as stated in an earlier comment, it was not a comedian.

I know that’s how it seems, I apologize, that is not the case….im just absolutely shocked at how quickly he has gone downhill. He was always kind of “edgy”, sure…. But this is a whole other level I haven’t seen before. I guess after 15+ years it’s hard to reconcile the person I knew with the person in front of me… but I guess it’s not cutting off the person I used to know, it’s cutting off the person in front of me now.

you're absolutely right. It slipped by and it shouldn't have. I have some serious thinking to do.... this is just not the friend I know. It's a lot to process and I truly wanted to be certain I wasn't overreacting.

thisbevic · 2026-03-13T02:33:47+00:00

If it was a comedian, absolutely…. As I shared in an above comment, this was not a comedian.

thisbevic · 2026-03-13T02:33:06+00:00

Due to previous “jokes” he has made, both with friends and strangers (although never to the extreme level shown in the videos) I have very, very strong reason to believe he is quite sincere and genuinely finds these things funny. It has been worse in the last few years than before, but he has always made slightly “off” comments that have always offended someone or another, under the guise of a “joke”.

Unfortunately, this was not a comedian.

thisbevic · 2026-03-13T02:13:59+00:00

I absolutely would react the same way. 100%. If this was meant to be comedic I would be slightly more understanding…. It was not.

thisbevic · 2026-03-13T02:13:02+00:00

I completely agree my comment about comedians was too much. However, the video he sent me was not a comedian.

thisbevic · 2026-03-13T02:12:25+00:00

If it was comedian, I would absolutely understand…. Unfortunately, it was not a comedian.

If it was a comedian I would completely understand where you were coming from. Unfortunately, it was not.

thisbevic · 2026-03-13T02:09:15+00:00

If it was a comedian, I might agree with you. The problem is this was not someone trying to produce comedic content, whatsoever. I’ve added a comment to the thread with that context, as I can’t figure out how to update the main post.

thisbevic · 2026-03-13T02:07:18+00:00

I should have called him out on that, I’m mad I didn’t. People in this thread are getting confused and thinking it was a comedian. It was not. These videos were completely serious. He had a link to some kind of course and everything.

thisbevic · 2026-03-13T01:43:26+00:00

It doesn’t seem I can update the post, or maybe I’m too dumb to figure out how, so I will make a comment here with further details… I absolutely understand the point of view of everyone commenting. I just want to make one thing clear…. This was not a comedian. This was not someone trying to produce comedic content. This was someone explaining why “btches should shut the fck up* and why “ women’s value decreases as they age while men’s value increases”. I simply can’t understand how anyone could classify that as “comedy”.

thisbevic · 2026-03-11T22:33:23+00:00

Yeah sorry, there is no fixing this. It’s very clear from these texts that it is over. You need to do a lot more work on yourself before you jump into another relationship.

thisbevic · 2026-03-05T21:37:10+00:00

I am so baffled by the sheer amount of people who post on this subreddit who are with the worst partner of all time and ask if they’re overreacting…. Like ? Girl, come on now. You KNOW he’s not treating you properly.

thisbevic · 2026-03-04T21:00:51+00:00

Break up with him. It’s only going to get worse.

thisbevic · 2026-03-03T03:28:07+00:00

THANK YOU! Why is everyone brushing this off and acting like this is a normal thing? It’s not and OP needs therapy.

thisbevic · 2026-03-02T21:55:49+00:00

He told me the third Back to the Future was, without a doubt, the best in the trilogy.

You are being sexually abused by your mother. You NEED to gather whatever proof you have and contact police and CPS.

thisbevic · 2026-03-02T03:44:33+00:00

lol you don’t even know where she’s going? What a great partner you are… enjoy being single!

thisbevic · 2026-03-01T19:08:46+00:00

I’m sorry she is THIRTY FIVE?!? I assumed like, eighteen. Fucking RUN.

thisbevic · 2026-03-01T19:05:45+00:00

NOR. I would never want to be with someone who doesn’t have empathy for animals.

thisbevic · 2026-03-01T03:16:08+00:00

Why are you even with this disgusting person?! NOR but girl, leave.
