Used to know this kid who was pretty chill. We went our own way after some bs he pulled that pissed me off, though.
Two years later I found his blog and he ended up turning into a suicidal tumblrina who brags about his self harm and used the excuse that "past abuse made him this way" and started pretending to have DID and suddenly decided he was a trans guy or whatever. He also decided he was kin with a sadistic angel and the masochist guy from Kiznaiver. Wildest whiplash I had in a long time.
Then his girlfriend got sick of him (who he pressured her to be a trans guy too or something?) and left him and we ended up being really good friends. He found out and went on a rampage and threatened suicide and made posts about going to the hospital. Turns out he didn't even go, though. His ""alter"" messaged her and said really awful things to her and then he was like "they're my alters I can't help it" afterwards.
Still good friends with his girlfriend. She was really messed up over it for a while but it got pretty funny after he made a tag for her that was full of depression posts. Also he's triggered by Twitter, hedgehogs, and pugs now.
This guy's ex girlfriend here to say everything Panda said is true and it's absolutely hilarious.
To elaborate, yeah, he actually really did pressure me into identifying as a trans guy. I had been having issues with pressure from other people and he just kind of fucked with it to the top. We were dating at the time he started IDing as male, and I remember he started calling himself gay even though I'm a girl and we were dating. So I legitimately felt like I needed to be a guy and thus... that. EDIT: He also had like.. gaslit me or something, saying I had talked about being trans when I didn't and was perfectly happy as a girl? LOL
He really fucked me up throughout our entire relationship and took advantage of me and shit. He identified as all these weird, gross characters and stereotypical yanderes and stuff, and was really obsessed with me.
And remember EdgeCult? DespairCult? Yeah, he was mutuals with them and I can't even remember if he participated in that shit or not. I remember he begged them to send him gore (and me, I think, without my consent - IRL gore squicks me if it's timed right), or something.
And his tag for me... His tag for me? Don't even get me started. I went by a name that started with H at the time that I finally left that relationship, and I remember checking his blog a month or so later to see that he had this intense tag that was like... Well, I think he had multiple tags. "#h" "#..." "#_" ? Those may have been them, if I remember correctly.
They were full of THE most pathetic shit I have seen in my entire life. If you search up "depression aesthetic" on Pinterest or even on Google Images, half the things in that tag would come up in that search, I can tell you that. It was sad. Pathetically so.
I remember one time, too, he had messaged me asking if I was asexual. I said no, and I recall him kind of drunkenly typing (he wasn't drunk, but it sure felt like it) "ahhh goood i couldnt stand being with someone asexual im soo hyypersexual lol" or some shit like that. He was really disgusting and said some sexual things to me randomly.
He'd also do this thing people compare to cult practices, where he'd love bomb friends, especially me, then totally cut them off or threaten suicide or something or other. I remember once he was insanely lovey to me one day then a few hours later he pretended one of his weirdass "headmates" came out and harassed me and called me a stupid shit and all that. Looking back on it, it's so funny.
I wish I had some caps of the shit he said -- unfortunately, I deactivated all SM associated with him and he blocked me on Skype.
Also, I love hedgehogs and pugs and I use Twitter on a regular basis.
