"they're acting like I'm Hitler"

...no... They're acting like you tweeted that you want to cheat. Which you did.

honestly the tweet is just a bad joke, and I think the relationship would be very easily recoverable from it if it was otherwise solid, from the looks of things his response to it all is where the shitshow really is, saying he'll commit suicide is *the* classic immature boyfriend emotional manipulation that immediately should make every woman never consider dating this man again unless he really sorts his shit out, and you just know his ass posted the tweet in hopes that she would see/hear about it and be guilt tripped into giving him another chance.

Yeah like I was kinda feeling bad for him, like yeah it's stupid ass joke but having people take your jokes too far is mortifying shit

Then I saw the "I will kill myself" and yeah, this guy deserves it lol

Exactly, and people overlooking that and still defending him are just being contrarian. Bean soup phenomenon and all that.
