A more charitable interpretation is that people have gotten into situations bad enough where they've ended up seeking advice from strangers on the internet. (Not every relationship squabble ends up in a reddit post.)
- StavrosK 7y agoI'm not sure how that relates. I'm saying that it's obvious that reddit is full of teenagers because the standard advice to any sort of relationship problem is "break up". "My boyfriend is wonderful but his feet smell" "oh my God dump that stinky-ass clown".
- tildedave 7y agoAh, just making the point that the questions don't occur in a vacuum. By the time something's bad enough to consult random strangers on Reddit the problem has sometimes escalated beyond the point. Often the "dump him" answers come with people also sharing their own life experience. (I've seen my share of the silly questions/answers too of course.)
- StavrosK 7y agoOh, I see what you mean. No, I've seen perfectly normal problems ("my girlfriend has different preferences in bed") elicit those same responses. Basically, instead of "communicate with your partner", everyone defaults to "get a new one".
