To think people shouldn't be calling Kanye 'romantic'

Kanye West wants Kim back. She is currently with some bloke called Pete, Kanye up until recently was with a woman called Julia, they've just broken up, no surprise because Kanye has been posting pics of Kim and the kids saying he wants his family back together.

He's now on a crusade to get her back. For valentine's Day he sent a truck of red roses to her house, he's made public declarations of his love on Instagram, has enlisted the "help" of celebrity friends and fans, and is telling his followers to shout KIMYE at Kim and Pete when they see them together.
He's also calling Pete names (Skete?) and generally telling his fans that he's an obstacle.

Last night, Kanye posted screenshots of his messages with Kim where she has asked him to stop doing what he's doing as something bad could happen to Pete and it would be his fault. Kanye's reaction to that was to ask his fans not to hurt Pete, as he was going to hurt him himself. Wtf?

Yet his fans, influencers and celebrity friends are calling him a romantic who just wants his ex wife back, using tag lines such as KimyeForever and trolling Pete. People seem to think it's hilarious and adorable.

Kanye is diagnosed with bipolar, it doesn't sound like he's of a sound mind at the moment, and he's also a massive narc. I'm not a fan of Kim or any of the Kardashians, but this must be really unsettling for her, if it was any normal couple then Kanye would be called abusive and Kim would be on the phone to the police/Woman's Aid

Aibu to think that someone needs to intervene before he does something extreme or encourages his fans to do something extreme?

He apparently has a huge... personality (🍆)

He said in a stand-up show that Ariana Grande spread that rumour about him to make sure that every woman who slept with him from that point onwards would be disappointed Hmm

I had an ex like this. The police told me it wasn't stalking when he broke into my house to leave me gifts, roses, love letters etc. It is really hard to explain when societally people seem to think these gestures are romantic and a declaration of love. Not Manipulative and a grasp for control .

Macademiamum · 15/02/2022 15:35

Anyone else who broke into my house would be breaking and entering right? But apparently not if they leave chocolates and heart shaped jewellery and teddy bear and rose petals.
It's still creepy AF it's still stalking and harassment.
Kim is well rid of that narcissistic sack of shit
That isn't bipolar, he might have that too but that's not what is making him behave this way. It's narcissism, misogyny and entitlement.

I think Pete Davidson is pretty hot! He also seems funny and sweet and to ... shock ... actually genuinely like women

I agree! I saw a rude comment somewhere about his sunken eyes but I’m sure that’s down to him having crohns or something (not 100% about that)

I agree, I've always though he was pretty good looking and he is funny which is a huge turn on for lots of women! And the huge 🍆 would be an added bonus. I'd definitely go for Pete over Kanye!

I've been following Pete's career since his debut on SNL, he is incredibly funny. Naturally funny. It's effortless, or at least seems that way.

He has his demons and tbh if I had ADHD to the extent he does I would prob medicate with marijuana too, he is very upfront and honest about his demons, his issues, his medical diagnoses and his marijuana use. Unlike Kanye.

Pressed send too soon. I have friends who are mutual friends of PD (close relation is in the same business). Everyone who meets him loves him. He is kind, attentive, well meaning. His sabotage is generally reserved for himself.

Would I shag him? No. Would I have him over to dinner? Absolutely. And he could meet my kids.

Would I let Kanye meet my kids? Fuck no.

cherrysthename · 15/02/2022 17:17

He's a ticking time bomb.

I'd shag him, atleast twice Grin

Pete that is.

I wouldn't touch Kanye with somebody else's. He's a horrible person.

BudgeUpAnne · 15/02/2022 18:50

Sounds like someone's finally had a word 🙄
It won't be the end though, he can't seem to help himself

I saw all this today and he sounds like a massive stalker. Trying to be kind, he has bi-polar and I've always thought he had some spectrum issues (SN parent here so just relating to my own experiences). I like Pete Davidson. He appears to be a good chap. She's allowed to date 🤷🏻‍♀️

I'd be applying for a restraining order personally.

TheFormidableMrsC · 15/02/2022 20:27

And to add PD has ADHD, as does my son, so maybe I'm a bit more patient. However, I've never seen anybody be anything but complimentary about him. Can't say the same about KW

Wednesdayafternoon · 15/02/2022 20:28

I find it absolutely insane that after the absolute mental breakdown, stalking, tactile threatening behaviour and clear mental instability that he has been allowed anywhere near his children.
I wouldn't be shocked in the slightest if I heard a harrowing storyline about Kanye causing harm to someone....
4 children allowed under the supervision of him. Absolutely crazy and SO disturbing.
I really hope Kim, the children and Pete are all getting the security and support they need right now.
Kanye is a powerful many because of his massive following. His behaviour which is being allowed is SO dangerous. Twitter and Instagram should be closing his accounts.

No way he actually wrote that himself - that’s been written for him. Hopefully, at least one member of his team has finally gained a couple of cells worth of conscience.

He’s obviously got his demons, and he really does need help for them. But that doesn’t excuse/hide his view of women. That side shows itself very clearly every now and then - then gets “pushed down” to be overtaken by his “creative” side for his adoring public.

His treatment of Taylor was gross, he definitely lovebombed Kim (no matter what else you think of her), he controlled Kim (so many examples). And is latest boo hoo of “I’m not performing at coechella unless BE apologises” is arrogance all over again.

This, and more, have taken place over a few years now. His management team are derelict in their duties. He clearly needs help. Yet all anyone around him must see are $ signs.

I don’t really know much about PD - but the posts on here, reducing him to being unattractive, but obviously has been gifted with a large penis. Real nice. Not. It’s not often I stand up for men (really not a fan of NAMALT). But that kind of joking and sniggering is gross. Not right against women, not right to flip it the other way either.

hardboiledeggs · 16/02/2022 09:20

He needs some professional help. He is a very dangerous man. Nothing romantic about this at all. I'm not a fan of either but Kim really needs to protect herself and her kids.

@LizBennet

Either way who cares.

Well I would have said anyone who comments, but you've proved me wrong 👍🏼

Boredom, mild amusement etc can make someone click on a thread without being intensely invested in a topic. I can assure you I don't give a shit.
