When did unhealthy relationships ever go away?

I mean, it can be an unhealthy relationship even if the people involved aren't actually murderers

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't say they went away. They'll never go away, and thank goodness because I love them! Unlike the majority of this community, most women love them. That's why they keep getting portrayed over and over and over again and making lots of money.

I meant we had come full circle from "girl saves bad boy" to "girl helps bad boy do bad things" in terms of types of unhealthy relationships. The latter was a popular type of unhealthy relationship in the 90s, when I came of age.

Not that there haven't been some of the latter in the past decade (e.g. Harley Quinn), but the former has been more prevalent.

IDK, I just think it's fun to observe how women's fantasies evolve with the general zeitgeist. Saving, changing, fixing have been a major theme of the past decade. As a new generation grows up, maybe themes will be more geared towards pairing up as renegades in a broken system. Which, as a 90s teen appeals to me in a way the saving thing didn't.

NAYRT - I feel the need to ask if you are into Lana Del Rey. Seems like she'd be right up your alley.

[(Anonymous)]

Hell yeah, her lyrics, her vintage look, everything. YUM.

Have you heard Live Or Die? It's basically an unreleased demo, so it's kinda rough. But if you're into that whole "unhealthy couple being bad together" thing, Live Or Die is that, that, and more that. (I mean, a lot of her songs have elements of that - Million Dollar Man, Blue Jeans, and Off To The Races spring immediately to mind - but they paint her as more passive; in Live Or Die she's his partner in crime.)

UGHHH WOWW. No, I haven't delved too deeply into her music, so this one was new to me. Love it.

She seems like such an aberration in the 2010s. Very much outside the zeitgeist. Perhaps her popularity actually has something to do with that.

Nothing like being brainwashed from a young age and then acting like your interest is a thing that came about organically and saying "most women love them" like you speak for all of us. Not to mention acting like these things don't have negative real world effects.

Pretty sure my own personal interest came from being sexually abused circa age 3. Not sure why all those other women like it. But it does sell a lot of books, doesn't it? I was speaking for all those women who buy them. Not all women. Perhaps you misread that. :)

It's cool if you don't like it. No need to be so condescending and contemptuous about it.

[(Anonymous)]

...And here we go. The everyone is a brainwashed moron but me shitposting.

[(Anonymous)]

Unlike anon above, (my sympathies for your past) I don't have any trauma or brainwashing, I just love troubled people and relationships, so I agree with their tastes. But I like dark stuff in general.

I was abused and I like unrealistically good mature gentlemen, soooooooooo........
