Amouranth going live amidst her husband screaming threats at her over the phone was clearly a cry for help. For those who have never been in an abusive relationship, it can feel like you’re in a mental prison and sometimes it takes drastic measures to free yourself. Amouranth’s move seems to fall into that category.
We can conclude it was a desperation-fueled move for two reasons. For one, very few people knew Amouranth was married, and two, women in her field of work typically benefit nothing from being in a known committed relationship.
Disgustingly, this event caused a great deal of anger to erupt from within her fanbase. While many were absolutely concerned about her well-being, many others became furious that they had given her money for years only to find out she has a husband.
What makes it worse is that this wasn’t just a small group of people. This was a lot of people. Many, many men felt betrayed upon the revelation that the woman who streamed to thousands of men while sitting around in a bikini actually had a real relationship with another man.
It’s obvious that these people are foolish for thinking they were anything but pay pigs. It’s the equivalent of thinking the stripper is actually into you. The relationship between any streamer and their audience is purely business, even when intimate parts of themselves are what’s being sold as the product.
It begs the question, though. How did so many men get to the point where they’d become convinced that the streamer owed them some sort of romantic attachment? How many men are so desperate that their entire romantic life boils down to gifting $5 to the streamer and hearing them simply read out their screen name?
A fool and his money are soon parted
