">If [wife] leaves him he gets an instant hotter replacement"

As someone happily married, I am rather offended at how incredibly shallow this statement is. My wife is nothing short of an incredible human being, and someone assuming I would immediately get over losing her if someone "hotter" instantly replaced her is a horrible statement.

And you just know that there are people IRL who think like this.

They're people who have no idea what an emotional attachment is, they've never had one. To them, women are for sex, decoration and menial labour.

While I do agree with your sentiment, Truman's wife was a bitch.

[-] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 9 points 2 months ago

True. It's been a while since I've seen the movie.

It is a 4chan post, don’t take it too seriously

[-] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

Don't worry - sober me will have a chat with drunk me later about greentexts.

That's because this is written by somebody with the emotional maturity of a 6-year-old, the body of an overweight 40-year-old, and the age of a 16 year old.

Beautifully said. I'm stealing this.

It is a 4chan post, so it is written by an incel.

[-] blockheadjt@sh.itjust.works 14 points 2 months ago

What you're saying makes sense if you have a genuine connection with her

Truman's marriage was not genuine

[-] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 11 points 2 months ago

Of course.

Something to know though - I was very much not sober when I wrote that comment 😅

[-] zr0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 2 months ago

Imagine getting offended by a greentext lmao

[-] lka1988@sh.itjust.works 5 points 2 months ago

It's not the greentext - its the entire mindset of "woman for sex and housework only" that offends me.

Drunk me apparently decided to say something about it last night.

A friend of mine broke up with his girlfriend after almost 3 years. 2 weeks later after that, he already had a new 'love ❣️' saves on his phone. No idea how the fuck he does it, but onestly it made me angry.

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 15 points 2 months ago

People are often over a relationship long before it's actually over, especially if one party is abusive or the relationship is toxic (with or without someone's fault).

I could've well been that friend, because nobody knew that I took my breaking up back and stayed in the relationship until my ex broke up with me because he was threatening suicide if I broke up with him.

[-] Wild_Mastic@lemmy.world 6 points 2 months ago

You're right, there are complex cases, and often as externals we know nothing.

I was thinking more of the 'playboy' guy who keep changing girls because they get boring.

[-] Droggelbecher@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

If it keeps happening from the same person, it becomes increasingly unlikely that their situation is like mine, yeah

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
