the kind of guy who has a girlfriend because guys are supposed to have girlfriends. everything is an obligation/responsibility

According to an interview with him, he literally sees his time with his girlfriend as transactional, that he considers every hour spent with her as being an hour he's lost money because he's not making content

It's honestly astounding to me the level of shit some people will put up with. That poor woman.

i mean she's got a rich boyfriend who has like less than no expectations of her, she might have a real boyfriend on the side and just goes out with mrbeast every now and again for free food and/or gifts

sounds like a good deal to me, i'd do it

Or maybe she actually loves him but will probably never get that same affection back?

well i guess, but that just seems really unlikely to me because how could you even form enough of a connection with such a cynical husk to feel that way? guy barely makes time to go on a date with his girlfriend and he's anxious about it the entire time, i can't imagine he was much better about making time for people who weren't even his girlfriend yet

My main point is that humans are weird and it’s kinda shitty to assume she’s some kind of gold digger or something. Maybe she actually likes the guy? Ultimately we don’t know their dynamic.
