It’s all got to do with people (= us) not believing the big epic love story between her and Joel. Plus, even though he pays for presents and trips and loves the attention they get, her fans and us just aren’t in love with him the way she needs us to be. And of course, there’s the fact that she married a man after 8 months of dating him. In her more lucid moments, the reality of that must dawn on her.
I think this is spot on. She's never complained about the criticism she gets online THIS much and quite so often before, which I don't think is because she suddenly feels it's much more of a threat.
I think it's because she's pissed off that she got married, and got her wedding photos printed in a magazine, but she hasn't gotten as much fawning over her relationship as she would like. That she's gotten more negative feedback on her relationship with her husband than any of her relationships with her exes. It's not "fictional" to say that she loves to use her relationship for content, making a "we're moving in together" video with Pete, turning her Adam's Family vlog series into a vlog series about Mr. Oliver Ormson, the allthingsmontague account... That content is out there, I didn't make it up.
So it's clearly just a big ego wound for her that so many people are mocking her relationship, when she really wants to be seen as goals and inspirational when it comes to this stuff. Especially because she's getting this negative feedback off tattle too.
Except that's probably just me projecting because my nonexistent wedding pictures that I didn't sell to a magazine didn't get as much positive attention as I would like from the big following that I don't and wouldn't like to have.
All of this projecting stuff is just her reaching as well. Like sure, in a broad sense, you can recognize things in other people if you possess them yourself. So some of the people calling her relationship unhealthy may theoretically recognize that because they are in unhealthy relationships themselves. But that doesn't mean it can't still be true, nor does it have to be that complicated. Her bizarre relationship just ticks so many boxes for an unhealthy relationship, which reminds people of their own experiences with toxic relationships, and they're obviously going to talk about that. It did for me- and when I talk about how fucked up her relationship seems and how worrying that seems, I don't mean I'm writing on tattle because I want to save her- it's because I'm pointing out that I see signs of a toxic relationship.
And it's also definitely that people enjoy cringe content, and she's providing a
tit ton of that lately.
Which again, is clearly what's pissing her off. She doesn't want to be the girl in the embarrassing weird relationship, she wants to be in an inspirational Disney marriage. If she hated getting comments on her relationship so much she could just enjoy her marriage in private and post about something else. But she's not doing that, because she needs people to tell her that she has the best relationship, that's so superior to everyone else's, because that makes it worth it for her. And she's going to keep yelling at people on the internet until they do that for her.
