Honestly, it’s more than just a relationship thing, even though what you mentioned is definitely a problem. Social media is basically a nonstop confirmation‑bias loop you only see stuff that matches whaat you already think. Folks who think the earth is flat, or that pizza places are child‑trafficking rings, get their bias reinforced by a steady stream of articles that just echo their beliefs.
When it comes to relationships, it seems like men get lots of “how‑to‑fix‑your‑relationship” pieces, while women get articles that frame them as victims and push the idea that they need to heal, get away, and put themselves first. I don’t think the platforms are doing it on purpose; it’s just how AI and machine learning end up working, unfortunately.
Personally, I finally noticed that my wife got really good at manipulating me just by calling me manipulative. It took me a while to catch on.
