Imane Anys, better known by her internet alias Pokimane, is one of the most successful streamers on Twitch with over a fan-following of 9.3 million. When someone is as popular as Pokimane, it is natural for her followers to be curious about her personal life, particularly the person she is dating.

Pokimane’s fans have long been curious about who their favorite Twitch streamer is dating. The internet is full of assumptions about her probable relationships, which she never confirmed or rejected. She addressed this issue in her most recent YouTube video, “People have wrongfully assumed that I’ve either dated or been involved with people that I just haven’t.

The Twitch Queen further claimed that fans assume that every single guy she meets is her boyfriend, which is annoying. So, she further shared on the video, “The reason I never address those things — two parts.” 

The two reasons for Pokimane not addressing the assumptions

Pokimane is known for her loving nature, and she has even claimed to apologize or praise inanimate objects such as a lift. So it’s natural for her to be concerned about what another person might think of her response.

The 26-year-old explained, “One: If you are so adamant about not being involved with someone, my concern was that it’s gonna sound so rude if you’re like, ‘No, I’m definitely not dating this person! Yuck!’ You know? I’m always worried about making the guy feel bad.” It’s a good reason for her not confirming the assumptions, since it might hurt someone’s feelings.

The other reason for her actions is that she wants to keep her love life private, and the easiest way to do so is to never narrow down the list of fans’ guesses. “Two: If I start clarifying certain assumptions involving me and other people, it kind of narrows down who I might see or might not. So, you’ll never know because I will never confirm or deny anything.”
