This is every thread asking for relationship advice on Reddit. Every last one of them is effectively structured as "My BF was unimaginably cruel to me, and I had a totally natural reaction to it, am I in the wrong here??" If it hits the top of r/relationshipadvice, there has to be a 50% chance it's either real or a total fabrication. They all know to go to r/relationshipadvice to ask their question, but they ask as if they've never even seen regular top content on the subreddit, which likely would align directly with their situation, and yield them the same advice. Any of these "ask reddit" subreddits has to be an exercise in creative writing, I swear. Edit: Also, most of them never actually reply to anyone in the comments, which really signals to me that these stories are just made the fuck-up half the time.

Apparently quite a lot of them lately are literally just fabrications from ai bots that have been fed other askreddit type posts so it’s even worse of a thing these days

It's to generate content for TikTok reddit reader videos. I'm pretty convinced
