This would be better if the red circle didn't cover the article dates.

Perpetual victim. Seen it. I call it Pretty Girl Syndrome.

"Everyone treats me like gold because I'm beautiful!"

And then she's shocked when anyone tells her to get bent.

[–] [email protected] 81 points 4 months ago (2 children)

Finally some fad I can identify with, except I'm not a girl. And I'm not pretty. And I'm not Syndrome. But everybody treats me like gold (I'm heavy and malleable)

If you are good at inventing doomsday weapons, you could become Syndrome!

Syndrome

And I’m not Syndrome.

You could become Syndrome!

[–] ink 19 points 4 months ago (1 children)

We could ALL become Syndrome!

And when everyone is Syndrome, no one will be…

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 months ago (1 children)

But when one is Syndrome then anyone can become Syndrome!

It would be a psychological repeating pattern of behavior. I think there's a term for this, but it's just not coming to me right now.

Is that term Memes, the DNA of the soul?

Will he finally make the Doomsday Ark real?

Hey baby are you gold? Cause I wanna pack you away in fort Knox surrounded by guards never to be seen again by most human eyes

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 months ago

Yup. Those poor kids are stuck dealing with it too.

Holy shit, her entire catalog is a dumpster fire of insecurity.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Is this maybe just creative writing?

I mean the author is on medium to get followers and make money. No one wants to read a blog about how uninteresting someone's life is.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 4 months ago

It has to be, and many of the articles use stock photos and generic writing. Maybe just like rage bait?

[–] [email protected] 11 points 4 months ago

I mean, she posts to a blog called “vain asylum,” so she’s at least self aware.

[–] [email protected] 58 points 4 months ago

Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and say that Elle Silver seems like a bitch you don't want to be with.

Fucked Around and Found Out

Fuck around and find out, maybe?

Vain Asylum sounds about right

[–] SonicBlue03 26 points 4 months ago

Looks like there's some highly tarnished Silver available if anyone's interested.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 4 months ago

Did she write the "I cheated on my husband" article while still married to him? That's amazing

[–] [email protected] 22 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Ok just my opinion, so clearly there might be some flack from the community, but I am glad she writes articles like this. It seems to be her form of outlet to process her emotions, decisions and their consequences. I think that is what these articles are an account from a person who knows they are flawed, knows they do not make the right decisions but are making decisions that are against common sense and she is documenting it as she goes. It is fascinating and past the schadenfreude that her consequences have given, the handful of articles I have quickly glanced she seems to be brutality honest discussion about her decisions and her struggles with the consequences.

reading the cheating article, it's pretty clear these guys were gonna divorce anyway.

It's a mistake not to separate and tell your kids before meeting someone else, but from reading what happened it looks like their marriage deteriorated to the point of completely ignoring each others existence, she finds happiness in someone who actually likes her being around, gives her the push to finalize the divorce.

Understandable perhaps but not exactly the right thing to do.

The way the meme is edited it makes it look like the husband found out and kicked her out and she deserves to be poor, reading the articles it looks like the classic case of "Mother drops everything for family, Father has to be forced to continue child support after divorce and does everything he can to avoid it."

Which, honestly, I support. Everyone knows that's part of marriage now, if you can't abide by the terms of the contract, don't enter into the legally binding partnership.

Man, divorced women sure do have it rough

Really feels like all of these can be true at the same time. She says in the article she doesn’t promote cheating, that it was wrong, and that it didn’t fix the problems she was facing in her marriage. Divorces suck. There’s a reason they’re a flash point for manosphere grifters to latch onto. The family unit is a means of wealth redistribution. We have a system where doing the right thing and ending a shitty relationship means you now have to pay double your bills with the same income and you’re also losing tax credits and sometimes benefits.

I think it's impossible to cheat on your spouse while being a good parent. Show your kids how adults handle relationships, not teenagers.
