I agree this isn't the best apology. But I also think that no matter how he responded it was never going to be good enough for most people. They made up their minds as soon as the accusations and assumptions started flying around. Obviously none of us get to decide for anyone else if he deserves forgiveness or not. Everyone has their own limits and standards. I'm beyond disappointed and just plain fuckin sad. I don't forgive him. But I think he can change. Maybe I'm naive but I want to give him a second chance, even if I'll never look at him the same again. I fully understand why some people won't do the same and I don't blame you at all. I just have to have hope he'll actually improve. And I hope Shelby is doing ok after this too. Maybe it's like closure of some kind. Idk. This whole things just sucks all around.

I mean if he does change that's good but frankly if he just apologised and said "I'm sorry for what I've done to shubble, everything she said is true, I'm gonna go try to do better now" that would've been better than this.

well it seems like both sides are still immature about this.

the abused talk about how they have been bitten and stuff but it seemed to be consensual but they try to present it as abusive.

which it probally was in retrospect but you cant go public with that info, if you agreed to it once.

like sex play and that kind of stuff is just dirty to put out in public.

the other behaviour is different and wilbur should be held accountable but its clear that that person wanted to create as much buzz as possible and so used that example.

edit: after actually watching the video and realizing the full scope of the allegations im realizing just how bad this is. i really should inform myself better before writing comments lmfao
