Tik tok tiggers

Okay, so, obviously I'm not going to be able to make you stop having those obsessions, but what I CAN do is tell you that the absolute LAST PERSON you should trust with relationship "advice" or "insights" is someone on TikTok. When someone tries to make broad stroking claims like that, there's a few things to keep in mind: 1: Is this person a therapist or psychologist? No? Then they can't just make definitive statements like that. They're literally not educated enough on the topic to do so. Professionals with REAL education on the topic would NEVER say "if anyone does x, it means they all are actually y." That'd be extremely irresponsible to claim that it's something EVERYONE does. Literally nothing that you could think, feel, or do is something that EVERY SINGLE PERSON does. Nope. Not how that works in the slightest. 2: What's the context in which this person said that? Were they on a podcast? Immediately discredit it. People make crazy claims like that on purpose to draw people in to listen to their podcast. Was it someone who had just had a bad experience with a man? They're angry and upset, so they want to say something that hurts towards men. Was it someone who just went through a breakup? IMMEDIATELY discredit ANYTHING that person says about relationships. They are the most biased people with the most distorted views and opinions about attraction. Was it one of those people who makes the fact that they hate men their entire personality? Do I even need to explain myself there? 3: Honestly? That phrasing sounds kinda like the person who made that TikTok was HARDCORE projecting. To me, it sounds like they've had bad experiences when it comes to attraction, and are just trying to cope their way out of taking any real responsibility for any of their personal mistakes or wrongdoings. 4: It might just straight up be rage bait. They might have just said that to make people mad enough to comment on their TikTok and get engagement. In a similar vein, it might just be that they want attention, so they'll just say something they know will make people want to interact with them, even in a negative way. 5: Are they trying to sell you something? Then they're literally just making up a problem for you so that they can sell you a solution you don't even need. This is why I hate 75% of the content on TikTok. People tend to immediately want to trust people who sound confident about what they're saying, so a lot of content creators and influencers will just say things like that and a lot of people believe them. I don't know you and I don't know your past relationships, so I can't make any definitive statements. But I can tell you with absolute confidence that TikTok is unreliable at best when it comes to relationship advice.

Tik tok is awful for my ocd
