I (24M) am happy to introduce: relationship_advice to Lemmy!
The Relationship_advice community is got the goal of helping people with their relationships, no matter the kind. Join in to ask for advice or provide your insights to help other users!
I’m excited to see a bunch of 16 year old with no relationship experience tell everyone the obvious choice is to break up
Lol maybe in a smaller, more moderated space we can see a difference?
I'll indeed try to come up with some strategies to reduce the number of uninspired "just break up" comments. Though our goal isn't silencing users, even if naive or young. We shall see how it goes :D
I know communities like these can get a little silly and they’re easy to make fun of, but they really do serve an important purpose, IMO. The number of people who have to be told that it’s not normal for your partner to scream at you, or that no, your partner actually isn’t a great person if they do fill in the blank is really sad to me. And for every person asking, there are certainly more lurking that can also benefit from reading that. They might have to wade through a bunch of nonsense and AI-generated stories to find it, but I’m glad there’s a place for it.
That's not fair.
Wait, my bad, I was thinking about something else.
That's definitely fair, and accurate.
I'm 34 have a shitload of experience and I also advise that most of the times.
Now I can eat popcorn while watching some couple's life burn to the ground around them, but without the icky feeling (from supporting Spez's empire, that is).
All posts must be a request for advice.
Hope this rule gets applied to posts that pretend to be looking for advice but are really just seeking validation. People complain about the advice always being to break up, but IMO this is the bigger issue which keeps me away from all of the advice subreddits.
Great! Though I do admit on the previous relationship_advice sub the only thing I did was to try and guess if something was a legit question for advice or just a creative / drama writing exercise ...
may this be better than the one on reddit, where half the posts are "you gotta break up now"!
