Nope. If you're doing something and someone is intentionally trying to communicate with you, don't just keep telling them that you're busy. Clearly, they don't care. Clearly, they want to talk to you. Don't be a dick and just keep repeating "I'll be out soon".

She was yelling at him before that even happened. She was also throwing things. So yes it was the other way around.

Who cares? He had a chance to be the better person. He didn't. He escalated things by attacking her.

They keep saying that it was all the guys fault. But it wasnt. They are both to blame. Clearly, he doesnt seem like a good person. But she also couldve stop yelling at him. And shouldnt have been throwing things at him. She couldve waited like 5 minutes for him to finish. He would say he would come out soon. Instead of waited, she choose to keep yelling at him. She was the one instigating it. Neither are good people. But I believe they should share the blame instead of trying to stick it all in him...

It's fun watching a testosterone-stunted something and someone else defend an abusive father.

A logical and (mostly) mature adult that tries to look at both sides instead of the one?

You seem to just take the GF sides for the sole reason of her being a woman. And trying to place all the blame on him. Maybe she shouldnt have been a bitch to him. Just because he didnt step up to be the better person as you say doesnt mean all the blame should go to him. He takes his part of the blame and she takes hers. Thats looking at both sides.

I never said it was entirely the guy's fault. She fucked up by not listening to him when he told her to give him some time. He fucked up the situation more by repeating the same shit over and over. If someone's telling you something and they're not listening, you should make the mental connection that maybe you shouldn't wait and talk to her now, instead of pissing her off more by being a human record player. Furthermore, when she throws shit at you, don't fucking attack her - that's escalating the situation.

And I agree. He shouldnt have attacked her. Unless she attacked him. Then its self defense. But why should he have to wait. He was apparently almost done. For all we know, it was how they made a living. Why couldnt she wait 5 minutes. Maybe the reason he kept saying the same thing was because thats what he meant. If he kept telling her he was almost done or coming soon, then she also couldve wait for a few minutes. And if it was important, she shouldve told him. But if she did, and he knew, then he shouldve stopp streaming sooner. Either way, they were both wrong. And probably shouldnt be together.

Imagine this defense in a sexual assault case.

Because clearly simple communication between partners is on the same level as a victim and a rapist.

I don't see how "Be out in a minute." isn't simple communication. If he wasn't replying at all, that would call for repeating whatever was said.

Ah, I misread your post. Thought you were agreeing with Kyuubi.

It was self defense since she was still throwing shit and attacking him when he slapped her.

It was not self defense. Did she have a gun? No. Did she have a knife? No. She threw a sheet of cardboard. CARDBOARD. Cardboard that didn't even hit him after sailing over his head after he deflected it. His life was not in danger. The purpose of self defense is to protect one's self from an attacker, typically through disarming the other person. Not attack.

Now, she shouldn't have escalated things by throwing cardboard at him. She should not have kept badgering him. However, he shouldn't have kept ignoring her request to stop streaming and shouldn't have hit her. He had a moment, after she threw cardboard at him, that he could have realized that the situation is changing, stopped streaming, and talked to her. Instead, he assaulted her. That was not the right choice.

Apparently, he was almost done. He couldve been finishing up because she asked him to stop. Most streamers dont just stop. Most have some kind of outro. Or can at least say bye. So, that was probably the last thing left. Also, to claim self defense, she doesnt need to have a knife or gun. She just has to attack him. For all we knew, she couldve been holding something. Maybe she was about to throw a lamp. Maybe she was stronger than she looked. We dont know. We never saw her. Its very possible it was self defense...

But the main point is we dont know the whole story. We dont know why she was so adamant to get him to stop streaming. We dont know if he was done or not. We only know a little from what we saw...

In all likelihood, he's perpetually almost done.
