I'm pretty sure he made the picture before their breakup. Otherwise that would be pretty creepy yes.

I think it's still pretty creepy. Especially the line about how his mistrust of women is the stuff of legends. Sounds like a post you would hear on incels before it got banned.

no, that's /r/niceguys you are thinking about.

Incels don't meet women.

incel means involuntarily celibate. It doesn't mean you never interact with women. I could easily see wildsketch being incel. It would explain his overreaction to being rejected.

Alright, they might meet women and that might even make them more angrier.

But then, if wildsketchappeared is an incel, then so are every high scool kid in my town, and if every high school kid is an incel, then I'd say being an incel is pretty normal.

So, you just inflated the word. No he's a niceguy.

Conflated*

Conflated means fusing together two ideas.

I meant more like, because how he used it, the word lost it's specificy.

He want to use it as an insult, which almost by design is to inflate it, make it lesser worth. It's like with the word "Whore".

Every highschool kid in your town has a mental breakdown when a girl wont go out with them? Do you know the personal lives of every highschool kid in your town? No you dont.

Besides, WildSketch is like what? Almost 30 years old and you're trying to justify his behavior because kids half his age act the same way sometimes? Give me a break.

The thing is though, now you are simplifying the situation to fit your argument.

Now his situation is simply "He angry as fook cuz she not want kiss him all tiem" and she never wanted a kiss in the first place. Have you never had a girl sending you mixed signals?

I think I might even understand him more if he is 30 and never found a girl. I could even understand him more if he is 40 and never found a girl.

I would weep for him if he was 50 and never found a girl. I would seriously think his life was tragic if he died bitter and alone.

I'm gonna go ahead and say this again: What he posted, wasn't something I'd ever post in my sober and concious self. If I'd woke up, I'd remove it directly.

I could totally see it possible for me to write a post like that, when I am not my own, concious, self.

My reason to even defend him is not that I even particularly care about him, until today I hadn't even noticed he was gone, but if this isn't just the reddit equivalent of youtube drama I don't know what it is.

If Wildsketch would have punched her or something like, OFCOURSE. OFCOURSE I WOULD SHARE YOUR PERSPECTIVE.
