(Excuse my English, I hope my message is clear enough) I would like to make a comment on something I think I discovered, and I wanted to know if anyone else has proof of the same or it’s just me. I went through a break up recently, and my relationship with my (now ex) partner had already been complicated for years. The content I was consuming through reels and posts on social media were most generally related to the women perspective and their unmet emotional needs when being with certain type of men. I felt identified with that and everything, I learned a lot and even left that relationship. My mom’s feed was and is also full of content related to narcissism and relationship problems too, how men don’t care about our emotional needs and now she’s divorced from my father I had to explain to her that dad was not a narcissist. The thing is, I recently helped a someone who is a man to make a social media account and he showed me what the content of his reels were the same as ours but from the man’s perspective, how woman don’t value the good in men and how it’s better to just leave and move on etc etc. He wasn’t looking for any of that content. Aren’t we being a little manipulated by content on social media? Gosh. Anyways I still agree with most of my content and still thinks my ex needs to take accountability for his actions, but I wonder, if he’s being showed the kind of content that says ‘Value yourself, just leave and move on’ change is impossible to happen. We are all becoming self-centered. And chatting with AI about relationships… that’s confirmation bias 100%. submitted by /u/VanillaMuffin96
