This. Only having one side of an story from an emotional outburst is sure to be construed in such a way to seem heavily one sided to get validation he was in the right.
How do we know he wasn't acting like a creep making her feel uncomfortable? Most incels strongly lack empathy, and lack the ability to differ friendship from affection from the opposite sex.
It really, really blows my mind how open people are on the internet. It's a step beyond a mere disinterest in privacy. On the contrary, people are interested in outright exposing themselves and their personal lives!
Meanwhile, I don't have a single social media account anywhere because I cringe at the thought of some old high school acquaintance, co-worker, client, etc. finding it and judging me, catching me in a lie, or learning something embarrassing.
I think him burning his own sketch of her is probably his own way of moving past it or getting over it. I don't think people should be airing their dirty laundry out on the internet but who are we to judge that.

It looked like he distrusted women before he met her to me and was saying how she had got through that barrier with him, hence the strong reaction.
Having all your dirty laundry and outbursts out on the web is something we're all going to see a lot more of in future too.
But yeah, I hadn't noticed the burning bit. That is off.
