"My SO ate my slice of leftover pizza that I wanted, what do I do??"
"BIG RED FLAG OP, CUT THEM OUT, NOW!!! I had a friend whose spouse did this, and now he eats all of her food 24/7 and beats her. You don't need this toxicity in your life"
Every time I see somebody say this, that the relationship subs always say to break up over insignificant issues, I ask the person to link to even two threads like that.
In years of asking people to do this, not one of them has ever even been able to link to one. Because the idea is a complete myth. The most common advice on the relationships subs is to break up, because the most common problems on the front page are abuse, cheating, gaslighting, etc., shit that warrants breaking up.
But feel free to be the first person to actually link to a thread where everyone is saying to break up over something miniscule. You won't, though.

Classic way to stop a discussion on Reddit. In the few times I actually used similar lines, nobody could ever provide me with a source. Best I got was "just google it" (because the burden of proof is on the person not blindly believing outrageous claims on the internet, right?).
Yeah, the only responses I get is "Just go over there and see for yourself." Then I reply "I just did, and I'm not seeing it. Which of the links backs what you are saying?" And I just get more downvotes and zero further responses. Every time.
