Am I just more charitable to anon, or is it just me? I thought that he just wants to hear these words once in a while occasionally, while being wanted by another person, just like he would want the same person.
Nah, I agree with you. While it definitely has a “teen romance drama” vibe, anon’s list just boils down to “I want to be loved” (and who doesn’t?). Sure, it might not be realistic, and it could be unhealthy if those are the expectations they hold for a real partner 24/7. But as a daydream? We’ve all had those dramatic, impractical fantasies. Entire media franchises are built on this kind of wish fulfillment, and plenty of people who enjoy them still have perfectly healthy relationships.
You mean the only thing in the post resembling a red flag?
Being 4Chan, I was keeping an eye on the vibes of the post, and apart from that nothing sticks out as particularly off. And even then, being a bit jealous is understandable so long as it’s not acted on or causes mental issues
Well yeah, this is basically describing an obcessively jealous girlfriend with a complete lack of self confidence and no life of her own.
I’m sure if the post continued further we’d find that his mommy/child bride/servant is also terrified to ever leave the house without him.

You mean like “when you talk to strangers it makes me jealous”?
