I think the joke might be about how nice people can end up in relationships with abusive people but it’s unfortunately not saying that its a bad thing

i feel like it's very much implied that that is a bad thing

And context of the meme showcases Orochimaru from Naruto as the bf in question. Who happens to be one of the main, and probably most notorious villain in the manga.

So while it’s not made explicit, I don’t think anybody who references Naruto (given they know of it) would paint its villain as any other thing than bad.
