So my bf started to do twitch not too long ago ago and I’m supporting him in every way he’s a bit weird when I go on the chat as he texts me and is like chat to me here or message.
He also called me a stranger when I came on which I thought was weird like I said he is my bf and then called me childish as he was live playing his game. I do say many twitch streamers talk about their partners when I was on the chat then he blocked me from speaking. I thought it was rather odd.
So a while ago I bought a tripod and a ring light as I wanted to showcase some speed drawing on my business/art page again and get back to doing art again. I was going to do it on instagram but I thought about doing some things live on twitch. I feel he’s gonna say something as I’m not doing it out of spite if anything im doing it cause he inspired me to get into it as it looks fun but instead of games I’d be doing art 🤔.
AITAH? Does it sound like I’m taking away from what he’s doing as ind support him in just thinking about what’s good for my business to be exposed as well 🙂
NTA but he sounds toxic
NTA, from the limited info here it does not sound like your bf likes you. How he’s treating you with his twitch is strange and mean, and him seeing you trying to share your art as a dig at him only adds to that impression
Yeah like he doesn’t acknowledge me on his stream as his gf and is like text me on my phone rather on the chat which I get if I’m saying personal stuff but I’m just saying silly things and he has a problem with that as he’s like “your always weird when you go on my chat”
Nta. Hes being weird. He kinda is ah
Do your thing. I would say twitch prob not the best start. Do tiktok. Youtube. Instagram. First to gain some traction before twitch.
Although if he wants you to stay out of his chat. Stop pushing it?
Yeah like I don’t come in the chat that much but it was weird he also said a girl came onto his chat when I wasn’t on it and was like “if you didn’t have a girlfriend then I’d be all over you” and it made me jealouse
you dont want to hear this but he wants to keep his options open. either for personal reasons or for his twitch gaining momentum

He doesn’t get to gatekeep an entire platform. And any guy who gets upset at you for trying new things just wants to tear you down and put you in a box.
From the way he is already behaving, Throw the whole man out.
NTA but your bf is weird how he interact with you on his stream, feels likes he want to pretend to be single…
Do what makes you happy and if he loves you, he will support you.
whats your twitch?
He can’t gate keep Twitch, seems sus he blocked you in his chat as well jsut for being your self. IMO He is the asshole
NTA
Playing video games on Twitch is not a job. It’s not a thing. You practicing your art is a thing. He’s providing absolutely nothing, you are doing the complete opposite.
Kinda sounds like he wants to use Twitch to talk to other girls. I see no reason why he would block you otherwise.

But I will say there must be more to this whole story considering he hides the fact that he has a girlfriend to his online audience. And the comment you mentioned that he received from another girl on his stream just adds to the theory that he is potentially keeping his options open. Keeping your personal details away from your online life is understandable, but when you get people approaching you with such a direct offer as that girl did to your boyfriend it is important to shut it down before it happens. Be it by disclosing the info that he’s not single or otherwise.
And if he feels uncomfortable with you starting your own stream only cements this theory more. Very often cheaters will have a problem with you doing the exact same thing that they’re already doing and blame it on your lack of trust. I’d say you need to keep doing your streams and don’t allow yourself being treated for a fool. I’d suggest keeping an eye on his behaviour outside of the stream as if he did cheat, there would be signs.
