Streisand effect edit what he said should be top comment on every sub instead of that be nice to each other bot comment , in my opinion . what uspez said Hey Everyone , Yep . I messed with the fuck uspez comments , replacing spez with rthedonald mods for about an hour . It ' s been a long week here trying to unwind the rpizzagate stuff . As much as we try to maintain a good relationship with you all , it does get old getting called a pedophile constantly . As the CEO , I shouldn ' t play such games , and it ' s all fixed now . Our community team is pretty pissed at me , so I most assuredly won ' t do this again . Fuck uspez . <| sep |> Well said . I ' d say tell her all this if you haven ' t already . I ' d think she ' d appreciate your honesty and your concerns . As for being protective , it ' s an instinct I think most us guys have and even many nonbipolar women probably get annoyed with us over it , but with bipolar disorder , it ' s probably that feeling like you think she ' s too delicate to handle things herself . She ' s probably had people in the past who ' ve acted like they had to walk on eggshells around her because of her mental illness , and nobody likes feeling like there ' s something wrong with them . It probably feels kind of patronizing sometimes . Like because we ' re bipolar we ' re all just sad pathetic people , but we ' re not . And I ' m sure you already know that , it ' s just likely how it can feel sometimes when we ' re treated differently from other people . I kind of have a bit of a unique perspective because I only developed symptoms a year ago , so that part ' s new to me , however I have dated bipolar women once before and again starting two months ago .
