But one woman has sparked a heated debate after she revealed she sets her boyfriend eight rules which he must abide by.
SNIP
Some people praised her for being reasonable, whereas others believed they were controlling and showed that she has trust issues.
Explaining her rules in the video, she said: “Today, we’re doing controversial rules I make my boyfriend follow, Instagram edition because I was telling my guy friends and they called me a psycho bitch.

OMG, how many had I’m in a coercive relationship with...
the GOVERNMENT - ACK ! ! !
Me too Laz but I’m a neo-virgin bc I do have 1 child...
that I know of,
Need proof of a coercive government?
Signs of coercive control in a relationship.
Isolating you from friends and family.
Depriving you of basic needs, such as food.
Monitoring your time.
Monitoring you via online communication tools or spyware.
Just imagine in the 1950s getting out the phone-book and dialing people at random
A buddy did that back in the 1970s on a business trip, been married to that lady for over 50 years now - 2 kids and a few grand children, living up in wine country and the redwoods.
I’m still looking for my Donna Reed. The role of girlfriend / wife she played in “It’s a Wonderful Life”... has always been my dream girl. Cute, fun, sexy, and totally committed to her man.
I’m afraid they stopped making that model years ago, though.
"I'm like telling you to, like, don't click on women so, like, if you do it I will, like, find out and dump you".
If we didn’t have social media, a partner might still be trawling bars and other places looking for prospects behind your back, but they would have to expend more time and effort to do so.
Now Laz
There are lies, and then there are damn lies......
lol
Yikes!
Rule #1. Don’t give me a list of rules.
A-MEN!
You are going to have to expound on which actual comment I made.
Think of it as responding on a thread to a post someone made.
I shows that you are interested in the discussion of the topic or, more importantly, the person.
On social media someone might post a picture or a “story” and by replying you are showing interest in them. They have tracking software to see how much interest is generated; Did they view the post for x ammount of time? Did they swipe forward and “skip” your entry or maybe reviewed it multiple times?
A business with a social media account would like to use this to see what’s resonating with the viewer and on personal posts they get validation from page views and replies.
The psycho itch is well qualified for a job at the new DGB.
“.....I make my boyfriend follow.”
Let’s start right there.
I’d go back any day! You can be replaced in one minute online. Thousands of useless old desperate women lined up to date any man.
They're extinct. Heard they might make them in Lancester, PA and in a couple of towns in Utah. Might be a myth, though.
Flip the script and apply the rules to her.
Many of us from an older generation were.
But almost every social issue in America can be solved by setting aside these types of shortcuts and simply treating people we meet as individuals.
The practice of group identity politics (and men placing women as a group on pedestals is simply an older form) always leads to big problems.
No group automatically qualifies for special treatment - nor do they automatically deserve negative discrimination.
I’m so out of sync with the pro war crowd I stay busy here lol
But I respect u
That’s two compliments
I know old posters I respect
The pro war crowd is awash with folks I simply have never seen here before if if some have old sign up dates
