AFN Commercial - Caring or Controlling Boyfriends

[x3LikeASkyscraperx3]

This is exactly what my best friend does... 

[wingsofhope2]

This commercial just made me remember that my cell phone has been dead this whole time.

[TheBrothersMachado]

well id be wondering where my gf isto. i didnt see her hang out with him once, just a giant ass phone version of him

[devilshomie]

He seems more obsessive than controlling

[Truemaztermind]

Leave it to immature little brats who haven't got a clue to get the highest comment ratings. (referring to the two supposed "top comments"). The two who posted the comments and everyone that "liked" those comments have no respect for themselves or others and/or have no life experience from which to draw from.

[DiggityDoglikeDogg]

damn texting. whatever happened to calling people?

[OhMyGhoshProductions]

this is why i dot text

As an advocate for victims of relationship abuse, I would like to thank you for posting. Most people do not recognize when a "close" mutually consensual relationship crosses over to more a master/server one. Teenage males who treat girlfriends like this, without anyone calling them on it, often, (not always) grow into full fledged grown up batterers. Let us all CHOOSE RESPECT for one another. Peace to ALL.

@mjcamck71 what about the ladies? i have seen way more girls then guys do it ;) just sayin

[mjcamck71]

@hemptrue - Yes, HEMPTRUE, you are right. Both genders practice emotional abuse & it's not any more acceptable when females are the perpetrators. I'm an Abuse Counselor & I wish this behavior was noticed & stopped right in its early tracks. The other problem is that some teens don't know what a Healthy Relationship even looks like; something which could be remedied with education. Thank you for your respectful post.  Peace to All.

True story...LOL

[unityofchoas]

holla back. holla back. nude pics. send me some. OMG I LOVE THIS

[axeshredstorm69]

That's one of my weak points when it comes to me and girls - the fine line between care and control. Thumbs up + fav.

[axeshredstorm69]

I don't intend to be like the guy in the cell phone costume, but I'm always nervous that I may end up like him. It happened to me before... a long time ago.

[TheFlyingAtheist]

nude pics ,send me some.

[20kcritsyo]

send him the pics bitch

[bigwigs88]

@20kcritsyo LOL!!

[mjcamck71]

@bigwigs88 - Hello. I've been busy, just got a chance to screen this again. Found your "lol" note under my comment. No adversarial intent here: what are you "laughing out loud" about, exactly? Just trying to understand. Just asking, gently. Peace to ALL.

[bigwigs88]

@mjcamck71 Sorry for the confusion. I guess youtube just placed my comment under your comment. But my "LOL" mine wasnt directed at you though.

[mjcamck71]

@bigwigs88 - Good morning. Thank you for your courteous reply. It's unclear to me, also, how these comments get placed in the order they do. Anyway, Have A Good Day. Peace to You and ALL.

[rgoubin1]

This is a real wakeup call

[dessyROKZ]

I hate it when people do that.

[lancerooke]

This hits close to home for me. I know I've been guilty of being a text monster, but it definitely goes both ways. That's what makes this video an offense against men. It would be better if they showed a female doing that to a male too. Make it fair. And what about the girl in the video. She NEVER responds to him? Most people don't act like that arbitrarily. I do agree that there is a line that borders harassment... But I don't think that this video gives a fair impression.

[yennu03]

sounds like this guy we're not even boyfriend and girlfriend, we just date once. it's so annoying.

[krazyandy17]

i'm gonna tell you about my situation. I met this one girl off of a school buddy on myspace and she said she wanted to date me so i figured a date can't be a crime so we decided to go on a date and she kept texting me like the giant cellphone did and she still does, and we aren't even boyfriend girlfriend yet.

[AzureSkyzz]

This is like..exactly what I went through. It's practically word for word.

[CherPassion]

Wow. This reminds me of my BF now..Ever since i started college..he constantly text me. I kno he loves me but I also have a life for me to live, and he gets mad some nights wen i'm not able to talk. Any advice?

[Nicetry75]

nude pics. send him some.

[peethus]

@CherPassion Send him the nude pics!

[socialcode]

oh my god. my ex does this all the time. He is driving me insane. We aren't even dating!!

[sonottiny38]

arent the girlfriends usually the ones sending the never ending annoying stream of moronic texts?

[ProJanitor]

Yes

[sasuke1243]

@sonottiny38 not really? Havent you sent your Gf an annoying ass amout of messages before? It's annoying.... -n-

[thesilvernymph]

I have lived this. Despite repeated assertions to stop. It's not fun.

It's a warning sign of behavior that often leads to abuse of one kind or another. A normal person will stop when asked. An abusive person will not respect boundaries and continue.

[UniversalWaterfall]

it's good but it fails to mention one necessary element, a lot of times people wont have the intention to bother someone, they simply wont know that they are doing somthing too much or obsessively, so the victim needs to respond and say directly that it is bothering them one example is "dial it down, I know you care but this is just too much", if they do not do this, the person being obsessive may think that what they are doing is okay, since they don't think they are bothering someone.

[UniversalWaterfall]

though this is not always true, one should still tell someone, BEFORE they go to an authority figure or end a relationship.
