    >he’s controlling and jealous

    >had no respect for their partner’s privacy.

    It boggles my mind how we can reach these conclusions just from someone hiding in their lover's closet once and then posting about it on reddit. Universe brain thinking, holy fucking shit. This a huge problem with the internet, we only see these snippets of a random person's life and then feel as if we have enough knowledge to armchair-psychology our way into the fundamental nature of their mind and relationships. This is not fucking right at all. We don't know all of the fights they've had, or the loving moments they've shared, or the experiences they've had before this. So who the hell are we to judge the entire character of this random man based solely on this harmless misadventure? The consequences have already been dealt, the girlfriend will leave him, so whats the big deal??

    >At the end of the day posting and sharing this has no effect on OP at all

    Nobody gives a shit about what this will do to OP. The problem is that we're creating an environment of making fun of random people in such an anti-human and thoughtless way.

    >he is again planning to disregard this lady’s wishes and corner her unexpectedly at a family function.

    Unimportant drama and gossip.

    I should read more books.

        >ignores the entire point

        >"muh closet"

        :internet-delenda-est:

        Ok tell me why its damming evidence that a person is a uniquely horrible despicable piece of shit who should go to hell just because of a single isolated incident of hiding in a closet due to an irrational fear?

        This thread is damming evidence that I need reading lessons.

            Of course you didnt say that because im being hyperbolic due to frustration. Lets just leave it at "agree to disagree" since we have vastly different fundamental presuppositions about human life and how to act on the internet.

            I still think its totally wrong to ridicule vulnerable people based on private interpersonal failings because its human to fuck up like this and not necessarily something related to chuddery/nurgle worship.

            In my opinion, it is also ridiculous to draw such drastic, sweeping conclusions about a person's moral character solely based on information given to us on normie level reddit posts. Hiding in a closet is fucking cringe and violates privacy, but we dont know enough about the life context to determine with certainty whether it is part of a pattern of abuse or a one time incident spurred on by extraneous factors not mentioned in the post leading to a declining mental health. Whether the man is a respectful, good partner is up to his girlfriend to decide because she has the context. We dont. Thus it is absolutely none of our business to make any vast moral judgements of character within a person's harmless interpersonal struggles.

            The person who made that post on reddit is a son of nurgle and literally should be prosecuted for home invasion.
