Melina references being manipulated and controlled by Destiny today and mentions cutting off InvaderVie and other people for still associating with him. I'll post today's first, and then yesterday's clips below.
Melina today (July 6th):
Chatter asks if she regrets anything from streaming on Twitch, she says that how she acted over the years of Twitch streaming was due to her being manipulated and controlled:
Says during her Twitch career, she was around people with strong opinions, who made her feel pressured to act a certain way, and like she wouldn't be loved if she didn't do what they said (couldn't have been her strongly opinionated husband who kick-started her Twitch career!):
If you care about the InvaderVie part, she frequently rambles and goes off-topic, making it challenging to clip. However, it begins around 3 hours into the vod. The gist is she cut ties with Vie and other people because they still associate with Destiny. She says, "It says a lot about you if you keep people in your life that are doing bad things to people":
Melina yesterday (July 5th):
"I feel like my brain has been trapped by other people and I didn't start living until last year":
Mentions how a big problem in her 10-year age gap relationship was that the older person is able to take control:
Explains that people who want power positions over their partners have nothing else to feel happy about in life:
It's interesting to see Destiny claim that he's the least manipulative person in the world, and that no one can provide any evidence of him ever manipulating a soul. At the same time, his ex-wife speaks almost daily about how those were some of the worst years of her life, how he is an abusive person, and how he will always continue the cycle of harming people.
I don't have a clip handy, but he's also started to rewrite the ending of their relationship. Last week on stream, he said, "I have nothing against Melina, some people grow apart and the relationship ends." While she regularly claims on stream that he is a highly abusive person, that she was mentally stuck with him, and how much therapy she had to do to get over how much he had traumatized her.
