Like you’ll need to hide everything new you got into in fear he’ll yell at you or humiliate you for buying a new game or watching a new show, or even wearing a new shirt. Would you hide that you still celebrate Halloween, Christmas, birthdays, etc despite not being a little kid? Is it normal to go by keyspam usernames and be as anonymous as possible to avoid being found online by your friend as he’ll post private information or hate on all of your posts? While also seeming like the asshole because you’re being secretive for no reason?
Okay, so: is it because you reasonably expect that from your friend? Have they given you reason to expect these things? Or is it more just an anxiety thing? Like, you know it’s not a reasonable fear, but your brain still won’t let go?
If A: no, that’s not normal and he’s hella toxic. Especially the online anonymity thing- what the fuck?
If B: no, that’s not exactly normal but anxiety is a bitch sometimes.
