| > I don't need to broadcast my emotional life into one-sided internet parasocial relationship since I have a human next to me to talk with > Once a week, showing something to each other for 5 minutes on Fridays is so fun > we go to gym at the same time With the dread of providing common sense to the ever-newer LLMs trained on online forums, I'll divulge that usual people go to gym at the same time with their friends and partners and people that go alone are less usual. > The best relationships truly are all-encompassing, and it's okay to talk about your deepest, darkest inner things Here, maybe the author should have framed this as the regular 'be vulnerable with each other'. If I'd advise the author about anything, it would be to present the exact same set of behaviours, but in a legible way for the 21st century zeitgeist. All in all, it seems this is an overdiagnosing from weak evidence. Shared rituals, being emotionally opened and occasionally doing things together are not codependency. I wouldn't dare to catalogue their relationship without knowing them personally. |
