‘Does the claw machine, speak to the heart & spark joy ?’ Yes ‘Does your boyfriend, speak to the heart & spark joy ?’ No. Bye bye boyfriend.

You can apply the KonMari method to humans as well !

Ugh I don’t understand the motivation for this type of behavior. I remember this one post where this girl liked to make infused water in mason jars and then her boyfriend threw out all her mason jars because he thought that was stupid . Like bruh why do you care

spinsterchachkies · 2021-03-07T15:34:07+00:00

When you provide less value than a claw machine and some stuffed animals. Lmao 😂 BoooM

PossibleCook · 2021-03-07T15:51:07+00:00

Am I the only one wondering where she bought a whole claw machine? And how much would that cost???

Charlotte_Cinnabar · 2021-03-07T14:05:19+00:00

I'm pretty sure there's gonna be men that'll galight her for dumping him "so hard and so fast". Crybabies the bunch of them.

superderpina_ · 2021-03-07T14:53:46+00:00

The claaaaaaaaww! She sounds rad.

Geocities_SEO_Expert · 2021-03-07T16:48:45+00:00

If the toys all fit into a claw machine, it wasn't an unreasonable amount of stuff at all. I'm reminded of all the horror stories of men who hoarded up necessary living spaces full of plastic "collectibles" and toys, and then had existential meltdowns when their partners got tired of living in a dirty cramped warehouse and asked them to get it under control.

A woman is expected to get rid of her cute nostalgic toys, but somehow it's reasonable to dodge a sealed retail case of 2019 plastic whatevers 50 times a day.

lhatw · 2021-03-07T14:44:24+00:00

Yea don’t you just love when they want to strip you of everything that brings you joy, but expect you to accept all their interests? 🙄 I’m glad she is leaving him.

whydenny · 2021-03-07T16:07:24+00:00

Dumped over a claw machine..oh boy, that's definitely a hit to his confidence 😂

SearchLightsInc · 2021-03-07T14:24:10+00:00

When you cant compete with a Claw Machine, what hope is there for you?

Edit: No wait! the meme is -

You: Boyfriend.

The machine she told you not to worry about: Claw machine full of cute stuffed toys & sentimental value.

Summerisle7 · 2021-03-07T17:57:21+00:00

Men accuse women of being “boring” and “basic.” Men also try everything they can to change what makes a woman unique, to make her give up her enthusiasms, her possessions, her harmless quirks.

SpecificPatience8 · 2021-03-07T15:27:34+00:00

She is smart😌

TagTrog · 2021-03-07T17:33:29+00:00

Imagine if the genders were reversed, and a woman wanted a man to get rid of his claw machine, or his PS5, because it is keeping him from being ambitious in life and she knows better. The scrotes of Reddit woukd have her head on a plate for even thinking she had the authority to get rid ofhis gamez.

There was a tiktok here at one point where creator said “if he does not spark the joy, then you must yeet the boy!”

uptownxthot · 2021-03-07T16:21:55+00:00

i hope she never loses her love for stuffed animals. i still have a collection as well.

Equal-Ear2312 · 2021-03-07T17:08:01+00:00

girl: buys claw machine with her money

boy: when you're moving in with me, ~~we're~~ I'm going to sell all your toys and claw machine (because I hate that you demonstrated your ability to buy property like a person with full legal capacity and that frightens me so I'm going to get rid of the reminders: toys that you won through your own skills & claw machine that you bought with your money and stored in your basement)

am I reading too much into this?

favoritesound · 2021-03-07T17:34:35+00:00

Guy tries to be controlling and see how far he can push her before she pushes back, probably in hopes she'll just submit like some kind of doormat pick-me. But it didn't work this time! Now he's back on the prowl for the next victim with low confidence that he can capture with easy meaningless attention/validation. Maybe if he can whittle down her spirit after a few years of love bombing, negging, and unfair demands, he can eventually tie her down with kids for that sweet sweet free therapy + additional breadwinner bangmaid all in one - this time, without all that pesky shit that makes her a normal, happy, healthy human with reasonable hobbies like collecting stuffed animals.

Yeah, don't be that next victim.

KateJ1982 · 2021-03-07T16:39:09+00:00

“He hasn’t been notified yet.” I’m not into stuffed animals or arcade games but I am really loving that update.

Imagine having an ego so large you think you can tell another grown person what to do like that. The scrotacity!!

2021-03-07T16:23:03+00:00

the obvious great choice of hers aside, i really love the idea with the claw machine. sooo creative and cute!

Astral_weaver · 2021-03-07T14:21:47+00:00

That felt so good.

seraphinelysion · 2021-03-07T15:16:15+00:00

I too would choose my stuffed animals over a man any day.

_mooness · 2021-03-07T19:37:41+00:00

Who wants to bet this guy would throw a whole tantrum if she tried to throw out his lego’s

thinktwiceorelse · 2021-03-07T17:04:09+00:00

How exactly would he deal with it in the future? He would have to pick a few animals, otherwise he's not eating that day? I kinda like the idea haha.

reallyuglypuppies · 2021-03-07T20:51:23+00:00

Pretty much every guy I know would be STOKED to have a claw machine. It blows my mind that she managed to find one who didn't. There must have been so much about that match that was bad.

justforfds · 2021-03-07T14:06:09+00:00

🤣🎉🎉🎉

FDSfollower1 · 2021-03-07T19:12:13+00:00

The boyfriend sounds horrible. I hope she finds FDS so she doesn't waste any more of her life on guys like this.

_queeeen_ · 2021-03-07T19:35:33+00:00

Huge respect for her commitment to her own passion. 💕

pitiful_cherry · 2021-03-07T20:30:56+00:00

Thanks, now I want a claw machine 😂

_boring_daven_ · 2021-03-07T22:50:19+00:00

Dump any men who disrespect your hobbies or items of sentimental value

dutchie19 · 2021-03-07T16:28:02+00:00

Amazing update!

brylm92 · 2021-03-08T00:04:02+00:00

Whenever a bf feels the need to tell me he doesn't like something that brings me great joy I just bluntly and truthfully say "I'd rather have __ than a boyfriend."

Wtf should I care, dude. And no, I don't want to replace all of my interests with your unbelievably tedious and generic ones, thanks

Wildestrose1988 · 2021-03-07T22:57:10+00:00

Great news, everyone! Lol

Consistent-Ask-7291 · 2021-03-08T04:28:33+00:00

Duh! Ain’t no stinky ass boy worth a stuffed you claw machine 😉

Boy, go wipe dat stinky ass then we talk.

Consistent-Ask-7291 · 2021-03-08T04:30:25+00:00

Can someone write some fiction where the boy ends up IN the claw machine? 🤡

XxShykatxX · 2021-03-08T05:52:55+00:00

A boy trying to tell me what to do with my things is out, heck any person who decides what happens to my belongings gets the boot!

ENFP_Canadian · 2021-03-07T15:39:33+00:00

Loving the update.

assdistroyer · 2021-03-08T14:16:26+00:00

Ok, so girls are persuated to stay with their crusty babydaddy who doesn't want to grow up and sell his videogames but a woman HAS to sell her toys to continue a relationship. Hell no.

honeybeeroll · 2021-03-08T18:23:48+00:00

NEVER accept anyone who tried to make you part with your stuffed animals!!! Or any cute collectibles. Outrageous. I hope she went through w/ notifying him that he'd been fired as a bf!

girl-from-everywhere · 2021-03-09T04:41:48+00:00

Queen energy right here ☝️

KevlarSweetheart · 2021-03-14T06:25:56+00:00

I was waiting for the update where he gets rid of the claw machine. I'm glad she beat him to it and decided to keep it and get ride of him first.
