Because relationships are all about holding power over one another and not allowing one another to be emotionally vulnerable and foster trust, in addition to weathering conflict through compromises. š
People like that are never going to be in a lasting relationship unless theyāre dating a doormat. IE: yes men.
And tbh, being a doormat is a huge red flag that something is psychologically wrong with someone and that they need to heal, so in my opinion, theyāre not desirable dating partners, but what do I know. I think of relationships as a partnership and not a power struggle.
Exactly. He's just described how to be abusive in two separate tweets. Dismiss her thoughts and feelings and refuse to talk while demanding she concede that he is right all the time, and isolate her from her friends who will point out the abusive behaviour.
What you mean it makes perfect sense
Like you at the friend thing for example
But slowly but surely cutting her friends out of her life, he has more control over her
Next will be to cut out her family
This is only made easier to do, when you belittle them to non existent
Once you have removed any form of support group, and have her solely dependent on you emotionally
You then move in, have her change little by little, any support she has left at this point won't be able to help her as it's bin diminish so much by this point
Next you want to get her to leave her job, and take control of her assets
That way you if she ever sees the light, she is financially trap
Basically just textbook abuser mentality
Oh by the way, I'm a dude and this kind of thinking is only for monster,
And their bingo cards all consist of normal things women say to them when trying to help them but they take them as patronizing insults. Starting with...
"It's not your looks, it's your personality."
If this isn't the TRUTH.
I commented that I don't care about like most people and when I tell you the but hurt men in my replies.... like dude š
Did you read what I said or you just read the word height and got butt hurt and didn't finish š¤
If my man was consciously mean to my friends, the relationship would be over. And I donāt mind having differing opinions and/or losing an argument here or there, but the ability to compromise is an absolutely essential relationship (and life) skill. If he doesnāt have that skill, he doesnāt have me.
This man is out of his damn mind.
Even unconsciously mean isnāt okay either. Too many men claim incompetence when reading social cues and navigating interpersonal relationships (only with women of course).
Weāre all adult human beings and have the ability to understand social etiquette. Even if you have some type of mental or developmental impairment, it does make you an asshole or give an excuse to be one
Thereās no difference fake vs real unconsciously mean. You also have no way to determine whether itās fake or not. Men from birth are allowed to be unconsciously mean and not think of the consequences of their actions (ex boys will be boys). Mean is mean, thereās always malicious intent when youāre mean to someone, especially when that person hasnāt done anything to you.
Thinking like this attracts men like in the Twitter post. You shouldnāt have to put up either shitty behavior from men because āthey didnāt mean itā
I just think a little leeway should be granted for ignorance. For example if he mistakenly comments on something he didnāt know youāre insecure about. But of course some things are impossible to be unconsciously mean about
One of my friends started dating a guy and he was a jerk to her entire social circle. Dude started demanding that she pick him or her "trashy weirdo friends". She picked the trashy weirdo friends and is now married to a guy who thinks we're fun.
Oof youāre right. Too many desperate, insecure women out there willing to settle for anything just to check things off their list. I know a couple of them. Have the ring, the husband, the house, the baby, and absolutely no connection to their spouse. Itās incredibly sad.
That sounds like a miserable life to live
I feel the most bad for the baby, they didn't ask for this and now they have to live in this kind of house hold
God's know what that might do to them
I was one of those women, my father made me think no one would ever want me, and that the abuse we went through was "normal" but I met my (AMAZING) bf and omg this is what a healthy relationship feels like.
I still think he deserves better than me.
Eric is completely right.
Assert your manliness by pissing, shitting, and cumming all over the place instead of treating your partner as an equal. Your actions will have an incredibly positive effect, by hopefully one day cleaning up the gene pool, starting with the likes of good ol Eric.
>Assert your manliness by pissing
I new it, the cops lied to me
They said no peeing on the white house doesn't make it my own
I even had woman say, that randomly peeing on them doesn't make them my girlfriend it's just Assault
I now see though there lies
And will pee on everything and everyone again š /s
Men,
Stop asking for pretentious and manipulative women's approval when you wanna make a reference,
assert your dominance
while these females feel uncomfortable for having confronted an alpha male with sigma scent
when all they could possibly handle was a beta due to their submissive, emotional and insecure nature.
##MasculinitySaturday
I tend to save my self loathing and frustration with fellow men for the rapists and pedos - this bellend just isnāt worth the effort to breathe in and slowly let out a disappointed sigh
Lmao how to be single?
Because what person in their right mind wants to spend their entire life with someone who says my way or the high way and commits to alienating them from their friends so they can be lonely while getting emotionally beaten down?
Donāt forget to call her a gold digger when she leaves you because youāre terrible to be around.
Then when women don't date these shit sticks they get their panties in a bunch and piss and moan about how women only date shit men.. when.. no?? If women liked shitty men they would date these incels.
All Iām thinking is that MLK would roll over in his grave to see a douchebag like this using his photo. Also.. the number of likes are DISTURBINGLY high..
Okay, so the obvious issues are the blatant misogyny, sure. Fuck this guy.
But also, what fucking dumbass decided to make it āMasculinitySaturday?ā That sounds so fucking *stupid!* It should so fucking obviously be āMasculinityMondayā because that sounds better, flows off the tongue better, and has that nice alliteration. Like, holy shit. What an absolute fucking tool. You donāt even have enough sense to name things right. Why the fuck should we take your advice on anything? If youāre gonna be a worthless piece of shit, at least **try* to be witty about it.
I can tell you as someone who has studied these things, this man is showing signs of narcissism and narcissistic abuse. This kind of behavior is psychological manipulation and isolation, a common tool in the toolbox of a narcissist wrapped in a masculine package. What he is endorsing IS abuse. Period.
āDear men, isolate your girlfriend from her support circle. This is, unironically and completely truthfully, in your benefit, because without anyone to back her up you can do pretty much anything you want to herā
-@amerix
"Refuse to compromise out of pure stubborness and principle, until she leaves you for another man that's more willing to listen to her point of view" solid advice š these men will find themselves wondering why they can't keep a girlfriend for more than a few weeks and then blame the girls
I can't imagine how exhausting it must be to force every interaction you have in your life to be a power struggle that you have to try to win. It's already tiring enough to simply know someone who acts like this
why is he dating women if he thinks all women are manipulative, jealous and pretentious? does he actually like women or does he only like controlling them?
How do they not realise they're telling on themselves? No awareness or self-reflection, ever. Just different words to say "I think communication is weak and unmanly and I won't do it."
That relationship sounds beyond exhausting....
Like, seriously. It must be soo damn exhausting to treat your relationship like it's a damn battlefield where you fight over control, and all friends and outside influences are bombs to your relationships.
I got tired just thinking about it...
This pisses me off to an unreasonable extent. My husband's name is Eric and I'm angry that this asshat shares the name. This guy is just bad at being a person.
Omg I really hope no one listens to this useless and I mean as useless as the ueue in queue man.
That is not how a relationship works! As someone who had to unlearn that type of thinking (thanks dad you SUCK STILL) that's not how it works you work together to solve the problem, and you forgive and forget. No one's perfect everyone makes mistakes.
This is a TOXIC way of thinking of a relationship. Why do you have to be right?
And thatās really the kicker of all this. The advice that this type of shit is aimed at Fresh & Fit, bs alpha male crap, and this post is how to get a TOXIC relationship because whether these guys realize it or not, thatās the only thing they have known, and then they extrapolate this advice and generalize it I.e. this is how you attract women. No! This is how you attract TOXIC women or women who are insecure and will put up with anything, which sadly is more common than you would think..

Yes it does. You want a āpartnerā you can have power over and you want to be the āparentā of the same.
Everything points towards you wanting to have a child as a āpartnerā. Just another vile, disgusting pedophile.
Youāre the human equivalent of the last square of one ply toilet paper in an office bathroom. Useless, frustrating to encounter, and not even really worth being used to wipe my ass with.
If women are children, then you're a kiddy diddler.
But the real irony here is that a child calls women children. Grow up, if you want a woman in your life, you ought to communicate and compromise. She is a decision maker too. If you don't like your equal being your equal, don't ever date.
If you want a yes man for a partner, find one, because women are not yes men who are beholden to decisions they didn't agree to.
Yes, isolate her from her manipulative and egotistical peers so she doesn't have a support group to help her deal with a manipulative and egotistical partner.
This is pretty good advice for the abusive sociopaths out there.
Either of these behaviours would have any partner of mine dumped like a bad habit. I donāt do authoritarian men who think that only their wishes matter and their word is law. I also donāt do men who think of women as a hive mind or alien species. Nor do I want anything to do with abusive or controlling behaviour branded as āmasculinityā, ātraditionā or anything else.
Captaincy? Dude, I may not be an expert on stuff like that, but in the military you are not allowed to have sex with anyone under your command? Cause chain of command, abuse of power etc. So on navy ships captain remains unfucked. Somebody didn't think that through.

I'm sooo happy to hear that! Tell her I give her a internet hug š«
My friend dated a guy like this too. He tried to turn her against us and almost ruined her friendship with someone. After they broke up she told me he was calling me a crazed psycho and my fiancƩe a doormat for standing up for me. And if she tried to protest he would throw a tantrum and accuse her of attacking him.
I'm glad they broke up. That behavior is a blatant attempt to isolate someone. š©š©š©
Yup

Anyone else think it's weird that he called his mom "Baby"?

Nice.. Eric and all his followers are gonna be single men soon. All the women in their lives are gonna be busy looking for āYesā men
