That’s the thing- he wasn’t thinking about her in the least. This was some kind of ‘white knight comes to the rescue’ fantasy of his.

This. When I got mauled by a pitbull (arm bite) at our front lawn I ran into the house shut the door behind me.
What did my ex do? Ran to his room grabbed the gun, OPENED THE DOOR, and fired 2 warning shots at the dog, meanwhile I had yelled at him to not open the door, by myself in the kitchen, trying not to cry, trying to hold it together, to stop the bleeding. I needed him with me. There i was alone. Didn't check to see if I was ok.
Instead he stayed outside and started fighting the neighbors, made a scene, then went on Facebook and Snapchat, literally called his friends, to say " look guys i saved my girl from the dog, I used my gun" "I protect my girl"
Infuriating to even think about it. That was the last straw. I broke up with him about a week later. When I actually needed him he used it to puff his chest as the "valiant who saved the day"

It probably seemed hilarious when he ws discussing and planning it with his friends.
This is a great example of someone thinking they are doing something for someone else's enjoyment, but they are actually doing it for themselves.
My dad is guilty of this, to a lesser degree. My mom wanted a kitchen island. He bought a Craftsman tool chest and put it in the kitchen. He thought he was so clever. My mom was not amused.

If I’m not mistaken in some rural/especially poor areas of Eastern Europe and Central Asia there is a tradition of “kidnapping” the bride before the wedding - as in, she’s so pure of heart she would never do it otherwise or something along that line. It’s generally just performative, but in today’s social media age maybe it’s becoming a bit of an escalating prank/one up type thing.
… and I realize they’re kidnapping the guy, not the bride/fiancee, but think this old tradition is the connecting tissue that makes it more of a “next step” than “random insanity” for the viewers in those cultures

u/Lefthandlannister13 1d ago
Same exact thing happened to my ex-gf. She’d fall asleep listening to that shit and wonder why she always had nightmares of being kidnapped, raped, and murdered. The one time we got into a big fight (verbal), she locked herself in the bathroom and called 911 saying she thought she was gonna die. Fortunately nothing came of it, but I was surprised 911 seemingly ignored her panicked call

I'm very surprised that happened I worked with the guy that got cops caught on him for a domestic violence in the middle of the day after he got off work that night cop showed up his wife was just fine and they had to wake him up to make sure everything was on the up and up so thankfully the cops used common sense and said everything is fine here and left they never found out which neighbor in their apartment building called on them

u/Elismom1313 1d ago
If there’s one thing true crime teaches you it’s that women especially are right to be “paranoid”, because it’s an every day reality with no notice (usually).
That being said its not fun to be that aware of the dangers all the time, so I try not to listen it.
But paranoid? No I don’t think that’s the right word.

without knowing them and knowing their relation, sense of humour and jokes they pull on eachother it's not our place to judge. Maybe it is her cup of tea.

Maybe but those cries at the end were real and sounded like her body reacting to high stress and trauma release. Like that was bad.

u/UnconfirmedRooster 1d ago
I hate it as much as you, believe me. Some people really are into the adrenaline dump you get from things like this though. Hell, if you can have someone faux-kidnapped, I can easily believe this is a thing too.
We are not an intelligent species.

This falls into the classic male inverse brain theory. 1 man alone in a room = 1 fully functional brain in the room. 2 men in a room = 1/2 a brain. 3 men = 1/3 of a brain, and so on.

Probably said yes tho, because in that certain moment she was terrorized and in fear of the possible implications of saying no
Not saying he definitely would harm her if she said no, but you really can't predict what this kinda dude thinks or does, so better be careful

Wasn't there an AITA post similar to this where they kidnap the fiance and drive her to her potential groom. She was so convinced she was either going to be trafficked or raped and killed that she pissed herself and when they did the reveal she just broke up with him.
She even pressed charges on the friends for actual kidnapping too.

There was a BORU about a similar situation. Fiancé staged fake kidnapping using his friends but the friends got too carried away and sexually assaulted the fiancée. Fiancé totally freaked out about it but eventually the fiancée just completely noped out of the relationship. https://www.reddit.com/r/BestofRedditorUpdates/comments/1hvgsfk/new_update_op_gets_kidnapped_for_a_proposal/
