That’s Your Boyfriend: The Guy Who Prank Confessed To Cheating On You For Your Anniversary
“It’s so difficult to judge relationships from the outside. Sometimes you’ll hear about a fight your friend is having with his or her boyfriend and you immediately want to take your friend’s side, but you don’t know what led up to it. Even if you heard the other side of the story, you wouldn’t be able to completely understand the context without having been in that relationship for however long it’s lasted. It’s difficult. So, I know when people see the video of my Internet prankster boyfriend pranking me on our anniversary by telling me that he cheated on me, and then losing his shit when I prank him back by telling him that I cheated on him too, they’re probably going to think, ‘hmm, this is a strange relationship.'” But they don’t know. They don’t know how wonderful it is to be there by his side, during his other Internet pranks. They don’t know how exhilarating it is to be in a relationship where you have to be constantly on your toes because you never know when your partner is going to set up a hidden camera and attempt to publicly humiliate you for the rush of a few hours of minor Internet fame, in an attempt to stave off the feeling that one day he will die and, eventually, his existence will be forgotten. They don’t even know if the stunt is real or staged! (Though, they could probably bet easily enough!) There is just so much people don’t know. But I know that I love him. He is mine and I am his, forever and — fingers crossed — ever.” – You (If you are the girl in this video.)
Yuck. Everyone go back to bed. (Thanks for the tip, Summer Estherson and Paul!)
