Internet users lost it after reading comments by men under a video shared by a content creator on TikTok.

The video posted under @theycallmemasterbruce’s account was directed to men with the question, “What are your rules as a strict boyfriend?”

Master Bruce has dedicated his account to asking these kinds of questions, but this specific one seems to have rubbed ladies the wrong way, as guys shared their rules.

One lady commented, “Bathong he said STRICK boyfriend, not controlling /possessive boyfriend but STRICT. focus gents.”

@theycallmemasterbruce What are your rules as a strict boyfriend? #SAMA28 #theycallmemasterbruce #tiktoksa?? ♬ original sound – MasterBruce

Here are some of the rules shared by the gents:

  1. If you can’t communicate with me and also give me reassurance that you love me, then I’m out. Don’t mind her going out with her friends, as long as she tells me. Always be honest.
  2. He also says, never reply to any compliments and reply to anyone on social media in a disrespectful way. Never post savage WhatsApp statuses, he makes me delete them.
  3. No man is allowed to be near you and if he does, then I’ll leave you to be with him.

Other ladies took it upon themselves to share their boyfriend’s rules who are not on TikTok:

“Lemme speak for his. He says I should never have a male bestie coz he is my best friend too.”

Another one said, “well his not on TikTok but I will tell you…. no male besties, no making moves without letting him know where am going.”
