I think there’s a difference between “bare minimum” twitter and “I really ain’t had nobody treat me like this before, so I’m sharing my awe with social media” twitter

My thoughts are from a heteronormative POV because I haven’t had any other type of experience.
I understand where people on here are coming from, in reference to posts about “bare minimum” things guys have done for their girls.
I.e. https://twitter.com/coreykeyz/status/948388451384283136">https://twitter.com/coreykeyz...
I get it. Things like listening to a person and giving a massage to a S.O. should just be a given.
But let’s also take time to review the fact that many of us grew up without seeing our mothers catered to like that. Subsequently, we didn’t expect that a lot of the time from our own partners.
I include myself in this because I was “bare minimum” Twitter before twitter lol.
There have been times where I was legitimately surprised that a man wanted to do something simple and nice for me.
Now, we have social media where everyone shares everything. So those times that something nice was done for me could easily be reflected in some of the posts we see on here.
Not to sound like a pick me, but some ladies literally have never had nice things. Y’all dragging some of them for celebrating the little stuff. Like it’s normal for them, when it’s really not.
Some of it is jokes, I understand, but a lot of it is disdain for people y’all feel don’t “love themselves” simply because what they feel is amazing, seems like it’s setting a low bar to you.
Mannn I say all this to say, there are some people still learning to love themselves and accept more than what they’ve been taught they should expect from romantic partners. Give em some slack, we all trying to raise the bar out here.
