...for about 3 months. I never go on there anymore, but still have the app on my phone.

Ignore the social media implications, which of course is important and a vital element to the story, but it's a story as old as time.

Man meets beautiful woman. Man become jealous of beautiful woman. Woman gets accused of infidelity. Man abuses and eventually kills the woman and sometimes himself. Nowhere in the scenario does the man ever realize that his behavior and jealousy and subsequent abuse is what has turned the woman away - not another man.

Been there. Lived that. This guy has zero talent, but apparently young people found him entertaining and a couple of Internet follows and likes from total strangers made him think he WAS special.

He was not. He was as boring and corny and as mundane as any abuser is and has always been.

She, of course, did what a lot of victims do - ignored the concerns of others, think that they are special and won't be treated poorly, have kids with their abusers, and then find themselves trapped. They protect their abuser because they think that somehow this is going to spare them, spare the abuser, and in some twisted way, spare the children - all the while ignoring the fact that the children are getting to witness their mother being abused and their dad being the abuser - a relationship not worth saving for all involved.

Rinse and repeat.

The worth of this documentary is for people to see how DV starts and ends and also to see that internet fame is really not fame, but creates a delusional mindset that somehow, you're special.

Narcissists don't really need to have a platform to think that they're special and above the rules, but it certainly helps!

As true crime documentaries go, this one is very well produced. We get a very clear picture of the main protagonists and what makes them tick. This is a sad story that has been told far too many countless times, but with the addition of actual eyewitness visuals to make the picture even clearer. That is, of course, thanks to our modern phenomenon of online videos found on social media platforms. In this case we can clearly see the inevitable and painful progression of an abusive relationship that ends in a horrific way which affects countless lives. I must add that I appreciate the fact that they did not end the doc until we get to see the end results.

Meaning won't be seen by those that need to see it.

Calling this murderer a "star" is laughable. Call him what he is. This would have been better titled "The Tik Tok Murderer". It would've garnered more attention.

I'm old enough to know that persons who feel the need to document every single second of their lives online are mentally ill. Plain and simple. Then throw on top of that those who post their lives actually believing the fake persona. Then, in this case they start to be believe their actor material. Then the narcissistic mental illness and ideation increases min by min.

I feel for Ana but domestic abuse victims need to recognize that they are. They also need to visualize themselves lying on the floor with several bullets. They need to visualize never seeing family members or if they have children ever seeing their children again. To solve that becoming a distinct possibility they need to get out and distance themselves as far away from these sick individuals as possible. There are so many resources. Free resources at that to assist. But this is an age old story of those who protect their abusers by believing an internal lie that the abuser will get better. Well, they will. Better at manipulating and better at killing them.

I simply cannot understand why a mother would want to demonstrate to their children the picture of abuse and allowing it to happen. In other words teaching them that if this happens to them, they just need to take it. A better lesson would be to demonstrate leaving the abuser.
