Let's say her partner's addicted to porn.
And there was one example in the book where her partner had said to her that he was addicted to porn and he watches girls that look like her to try and reassure her.
So don't worry.
It's fine.
But I think he was saying even worse that like I watch people with average bodies like yours.
Like I also watch normal women.
But anyway, she wrote this heartbreaking post on Reddit to say, how do I deal with this?
And she kept saying in it constantly, I know that I need to get over this, but it's upsetting me.
I can't stop crying about it.
I can't have a conversation with him.
Literally every single comment was, you are the problem.
I think you have an anxiety disorder.
I think you have an attachment issue because this is completely normal.
And so I think there's sort of two things going on.
I do think there's also, when there's legitimate problems, that sort of inward spiral of Reddit can make you...
overthink it and go too far.
Well, as you've said before, the people who don't need that advice will take it.
Yeah.
And so you have, if you're a girl that's self-critical and likely to go inward and someone tells you, you are the problem, you're going to take that seriously.
Yeah.
