Guy Edits His Girl’s Forehead To Look Bigger In Pics When She Makes Him Mad And It Goes Viral

ADVERTISEMENT

All’s fair in love and war – we all have different techniques that get us through fights with our significant others and for one Twitter user his is photo editing. Instead of shouting, storming out or saying mean things user @Tgflx1 takes a more humorous approach when he gets mad. He Photoshops either a big forehead or a huge one on his girlfriend depending on the level of mad she’s in. It’s also a good thing that she herself finds these funny pictures with her huge forehead even more hilarious.

In a thread, he shared multiple before and after photos, he had edited and uploaded when he was mad at his partner – and the results are truly hilarious jokes (hopefully to her as well). Renowned relationship psychologist John Gottman says that couples who use humor during a conflict are often more successful in the long run than couples who don’t. Judging on this funny boyfriend’s fighting tactics we think they might be able to stand the test of time.

    Researchers found that those couples who tease each other and make good-natured funny jokes about each other have the strongest relationships. It was discovered over the course of 39 studies that involved over 15,000 people and lasted for more than 30 years. But there are two things to keep in mind when applying this strategy, or else miscommunication could occur. The first is that it is important that the couple has a shared sense of humor. One of the researchers, Hall, noted that humor is a wide concept, so not everyone has the same idea of what is funny.

    Couples with a shared sense of humor have stronger relationships. The second thing is that humor should “provide life to a relationship, inspire laughter, and lighten problems.” Going too far to the point of mean jokes about one another using sarcasm, repetition, or mocking, is unhealthy. “Having an aggressive sense of humor is a bad sign for the relationship,” stated Hall.

    Anyone imagines the analogy to doing this in the pre-Web era? Printing manipulated photos and handing them to strangers in a mall. Then drive top the next mall and repeat. Sounds stupid? Yes, it is stupid to ridicule a loved one in front of the whole world, even if the joke is innocent.

    I don't think this qulifies as a couple using humour to deal with relationship issues. The dude is publicly humiliating his girlfriend every time he's mad at her, he's just punishing her. Using humour in a conflict is more like using jokes to softly deliver constructive critisism to your partner without hurting their feelings (at least it is for me and my husband). There's no harm in laughing at each other, as long as you're not intentionally hitting sore spots. It wouldn't be as much of an issue if this was a private joke and he wasn't uploading the pics, but what this guy is doing doesn't seem healthy to me at all.

    My dad had a desktop background picture of 'seven of nine' from voyager (Jeri Ryan), and i would hide the original image file and leave a photoshopped one in its place, and each time he found the original id just do it again lol. But that was an image of a person in character, and not broadcast to the world. I like the premise of the humour, but if my so didn't find it funny I wouldn't post it.

    Does she, and ultimately, all of you others that have posted replies, have such a delicate self esteem, and are so superficially sensitive that after explanation, still see this as 'public humiliation'? I mean, humiliation is a strong word, and the fact that it's so loosely being used by so many in this thread tells me that all of you are used to this type of behavior by your significant others... That, if this is true, then all of you need to reconsider being with someone that behaves this way. Otherwise, this thread is being dominated by responders that are so superficially sensitive, have self esteems so delicate that attempts at silly banter result in accusations of emotional abuse (that's what public humiliation is).... I would never be with a woman that behaves so adversarial, and lacks confidence and a sense of humor.

    The moment he posted it online is where it became unfunny and a way to publicly make fun of her. If it makes you feel better making these photoshop images, by all means do it, print it out and give it to her to show, in a childish way, that you're upset, but don't share it with the world. It's just cruel.

    I have to say, I don't understand this. It seems like such a minor thing. On the woman's side he only slightly changed the pic. On the man's side, he only made a slight effort. It just seems so minor that it doesn't make sense to even do it.

    Now that's the first reply on this thread that makes sense. I prefer a woman that has the self esteem, confidence, and sense of humor that equals or exceeds my own. The girl that got away, for me, was all these and more, and I still haven't found another one that compares... It's sad, really, that so many jerks out there have behaves so selfishly that all these otherwise sweet girls are now regularly assuming the role of the victim and are on the defensive right from the start. Please ladies, drop the grudge, fight back, and try to take us at face value, unless proven otherwise that he can't be trusted. And, if bellitling you is common, drop his a*s already!

    Sometimes you ladies throw around words like 'stalker', 'rapist ', and 'pedophile', as if they don't carry any real weight. I mean, these words aren't just adjectives and they have real world meanings that are more than just calling someone a 'jerk'. They carry legal connotations and it always offends me when I see people use them so cavelierly. It's bad enough that all these replies about this guy's silly attempt to diffuse a tense situation assume he was passive agressively trying to take shot at her after the fact, and that he was victimising her, but you are all over looking the fact that in context, she isn't upset about it! In order to really make sense of this, we need to consider her side of the story, and she's not presenting herself as a victim, so that tells me, in addition to taking his word at face value that he was trying to be funny, her response should solidify all our opinions that he was being silly... Damn, you girls are just too accusatory.

He may have been a little ignorant that without explanation, she may have been a little ego hurt since it wasn't just between the two of them, but after he explained himself by showing the before and afters, and stating his true intent to lighten a tense situation, clearly this wasn't malicious. For all of you that assume his intent was humiliation, and jump straight to passive agressiveness on his part, I feel sorry for you. After all, the only reason you sweet ladies would automatically feel offense must be because in the past, or even presently, you have been victims of belittling behavior by your trusted partners yourselves... Cavelierly throwing around accusations of emotional abuse is not something most men feel is acceptable an honestly, it offends me. If you can't take a man's word at face value, then you may need to take stock of your own delicate self esteem... Rather than placing blame so needlessly.

    I've never been treated like that by any man and my husband is a fabulous person who wouldn't dream of doing something like this to anyone, so your assumption is wrong. This does make me think that this man has an unhealthy idea of what's okay to do to 'lighten' things with someone you supposedly love. It IS passive aggressive. Or just plain and simply an unpleasant thing to even consider if you love someone and she's taking it on the chin rather than remonstate and make things worse between them. My husband has taken the odd photo of me where I'm pulling some weird face and I've found it hilarious but that was by accident. If you can't see this as passive aggression then maybe you don't understand what that actually means or maybe you thinking this is okay is a failure on your part - or are you too arrogant to consider that possibility? No, must be ALL the WOMEN responding here... Are they ALL women?
