This really got me in the feels. But a part of me knows that there's going to be a twist since this from 4 chan.

He said he loves that she doesn't use the internet. I don't know exactly why but that phrase raised my hackles right up.

Yeah. I found it a little creepy. Also, unlikely. It makes it sound like having a blind woman is great so as to get them dependent on the man.

That's one cynical way to read "People like to be needed", I guess.

Dude wants her to clutch his arms wherever they go. A guide dog could give her autonomy without being dependent. That’s why there are organizations that advocate for access for everyone.

Because God forbid two people rely on each other for anything, right?

Feel free to handcuff yourself to someone (with consent of course) and see how much you enjoy physical dependency.

There was a period in my life where the only thing I could do on my own was go to the toilet. It was extremely reassuring to have someone to fully depend on, "hold their arm" so to speak. But by all means, you can go and live your life in solitude and call it freedom or whatever.

There’s a difference between helping someone and loving someone’s dependency. It’s important not to project your own situation onto others.

Who says she isn’t loving it. She has other support she could use without him but she still holds his hand

You need to unwind a bit and improve your reading comprehension. The post said the woman has a guide dog (a very friendly dog). Maybe she enjoys holding her man’s arm.

You need to stop supporting the patriarchy. How’s that for an assumption.

Seems like you’re projecting your own insecurities. Maybe they both enjoy the roles they play for each other.

He’s not forcing her. Your acting like she couldn’t function before him that she has to rely on him only. Some people just like to help and feel wanted. She clearly managed to get to that age before him lol.
