Here it is. He says “Cindy and I are breaking up” - then proceeds with the review of Laphroaig 10 Year Single Malt Scotch, which he tells us has been his go-to single malt - it’s a “no compromise” Malt, he assures us.
It’s not a stunt. Some people just make better friends than partners. If there was no animosity during the break up, there’s no reason they can’t remain friends.
Not saying this is the case here because I don’t know, but on the other hand of that abusers are really good at manipulating their way back in to relationships, so unfortunately that’s also an option.
I don’t think it’s particularly helpful or even healthy to speculate about abuse in every conceivable scenario. The guy’s a whisky aficionado who goes on frequent trips to distilleries and has uploaded and average of a whisky related video every other day for several years. You can see by the thumbnails a story of him growing a wall of whisky over the years. That factor alone is difficult to live with if you’re not on the same wavelength as that person. It’s not, however, an issue that would require you to burn bridges after separation.
You’re not making the point you think you are, he clearly has an unhealth relationship with alcohol (and the woman in the video) and calling him an “aficionado” doesn’t change that.
The person I replied to was the one who started speculating, and I added an alternative speculation, which seemed much more realistic to me. all things considered.
You are also speculating.
So fuck off with somehow getting upset over people bringing up the possibility of abuse because it makes you uncomfortable (and the reasons why are for you to examine with yourself).
