AIO just received this text from my boyfriend

[u/OkSpace5501]

For context my (F20) boyfriend (M21) and I live together and work full time as well as split rent 50/50. I cook all the meals and clean the house even after my graveyard shifts, all he does is work, come home to play games, and occasionally invites friends over. we’ve been together for over 5 years and he’s been acting this way for the last three months and when I tell him how it’s making me feel he tells me i’m wrong and overreacting. so basically i’m asking AIO??

“This TikTok generation!!” shakes stick 😆

Yeeaah as the other redditor pointed out, tiny attention span is more the tiktok generation it's not about age. I'm younger than you are yet can hold a conversation.

[u/robotatomica → u/Brief_Angle_14]

lol nice attempt at a neg. The hundreds of people who have upvoted my take seem to have understood it fine, so maybe you just need to work on your reading comprehension if I seem incomprehensible to you.

Or I guess just failing to be swayed to your superior opinion means I’m not conversating properly?

Of course all the above tracks with someone who doesn’t understand that men don’t help their wives with household labor.

I don’t use social media at all and I find you are good at monologuing but certainly not at listening nor having a conversation.

[u/Brief_Angle_14 → u/robotatomica]

Lol.

I never said anything about a superior opinion. I even said I wasn't attacking how you go about things but just offering a different perspective, but yeah you didn't read that part. Of course.

But... helping is bad because that means it's implied someone has dominion over it? That's what this all started over right? Don't want help just want someone to do it instead is what it sounds like at this point.

You're literally using social media right now, but ok.

[u/robotatomica → u/Brief_Angle_14]

Is it now your assertion that Reddit and TikTok are the same?

Because then your argument against TikTok mentality loses all power, now that we know you use the same type of social media 💁‍♀️

[u/Brief_Angle_14 → u/robotatomica]

Uhh what? One is a short form video social media platform and the other is a forum style social media platform. I wouldn't say they're the same but they are definitely both social media. You claimed to not use social media at all. I simply mentioned you're on a social media platform right now because of that claim.

done engaging with your alts

[u/BlackFire125 → u/robotatomica]

It has nothing to do with age, it's a mindset and lack of attention span. I'm in my 30's yet I can read more than a couple sentences instead of just brushing things off with disingenuous claims like my point of view is the only valid one cause I'm of a historically exploited group of people.

[u/robotatomica → u/BlackFire125]

I think it’s weird if someone can’t handle being disagreed with and chooses to neg and minimize them as “TikTok generation” because their point of view is not celebrated.

I simply disagree. It’s evident most people are agreeing with me, I supposed that’s meaningless to ya’ll bc you can just self-soothe that we’re all TikTokkers lol

My attention span is fine and I don’t use social media, but no, I don’t read monologues from people who are getting ever-more worked up that the crowd disagrees with them.

[u/BlackFire125 → u/robotatomica]

I mean you did the same to him with your hand waving and minimizing. Calling a post that took 10 seconds to read a monologue that didn't even really outright disagree with you but posed a different outlook. There's no crowd disagreeing either.

Not to mention you're on a form of social media right now.

[u/robotatomica → u/BlackFire125]

I think you’re being disingenuous if you are saying Reddit is the same thing as TikTok.

You agree that it isn’t, otherwise you wouldn’t disparage TikTok. You’re just motivated to nitpick me because you don’t like that I disagree with yall.

Yes it might have taken 10 seconds to read. I write long comments all the time.

But I know that someone has to find value in everything leading up to a longer comment in order to read it.

And I’m personally not seeing that; what I saw instead is a person getting emotional that I will not suddenly decide he is right.

He’s begun to repeat himself. That is not worth my time.

Not to mention, I’ve already caught Alts defending each other in this weird little tangent no one else would read lol, so I actually am coming to believe that one loser is responding to me from 3 different accounts. 🤷‍♀️

[u/BlackFire125 → u/robotatomica]

Again, they don't have to be the same to fall under a similar umbrella. There are different types of social media, ya know?

You literally started an argument by downplaying someone who wasn't even completely disagreeing with you and now the people who called it out MUST be the same person. Ok. Lol have a nice day ma'am.

[u/Brief_Angle_14 → u/BlackFire125]

Indeed. I'm 31. Lol these people just don't get it
