love

Life can suck. It can feel pointless, monotonous, and draining. Every now and then we need something to remind us that there's good in this world. While we're not claiming that the internet makes everything better, these sweet, happy, and heartwarming posts are a great reminder that sometimes, just sometimes, the world doesn't suck. 

This selection of tweets, memes, and pics is for anyone who is having a bad day or needs a little pick-me-up. Sometimes when you can't see the light at the end of the tunnel you need a little bit of warmth and perspective.

All relationships have their ups and downs. While your partner may provide you with unending emotional support, they may also provide you with constant roasting or eat all your leftovers. That's why it's important to laugh about the idiosyncrasies of being committed. It's not always a walk in the park, but hopefully your relationship isn't ever boring. 

We really didn't think we'd be seeing a meme from Cloudy With A Chance Of Meatballs 2 in 2019, but hey, anything is possible. This particular meme is actually incredibly wholesome. The image is character Earl Devereaux saying "It's enough to make a grown man cry," and memers are combining the image with incredibly wholesome content that, well, makes you want to cry. They're fantastic memes, but a bit dangerous while pmsing, so proceed with caution. 

Anyone who is married - or even just knows people who are wedded - knows that the institution comes with its ups and downs. Every person has their tics and when you're in a committed relationship, sometimes it feels like they're held under a lens. But for all the grief and annoyance, marriage, more than anything, has the power to make us laugh. These tweets are a great example of the hilarity that comes with saying "I do."

As the days get shorter and we see less and less sunlight, we need to take better care of ourselves. This existence can get very dark and very depressing very quickly. Especially if you suffer from seasonal depression. When things get rough and our mood turns to glum, we like to scroll through some happier content as opposed to the saucy, spicy, and horrifying stuff we usually gravitate towards. It may be a misguided attempt to harvest some serotonin, but damn, we are gonna try anyway.

We know our readers hail from all corners of the globe, so we can't speak for all of your weather woes. But here in New York, things are looking pretty glum. It's been grey, rainy, and downright bone-chilling - a reminder of the difficult and depressing months ahead. To help combat your seasonal affective disorder, we're bringing you these sweet and scroll-worthy tweets and posts. They may seem cheesy but every now and then a little cheese is good.

Listen, we know the friend zone isn't real, but these woeful accounts of unrequited love are pretty damn entertaining. We just hope it didn't hurt too much.

Want to feel like absolute shit about love in a digital world? Well, cartoonist Tommy Siegel has some cartoons for you! He's taken Necco's (RIP) classic conversation hearts and put a seriously dark spin on the Valentine's confection. Instead of cutesy messages, he uses the hearts as to convey some seriously depression truths about dating, relationships, and marriage. And somehow, we can't get enough of his dark work. If you like what you see here, give the dude a follow on Instagram. He deserves it. 

As we mourn the demise of our summer (and possibly, summer flings) we're also gearing up for cuffing season. What'scuffing season, you ask? It's a period - usually from about October to March - when people want to lock a partner down for the cold, boring winter. Having someone to binge watch television with, or cook time-consuming stews with is one of the best parts of winter. These comics from Bright Side manage to embody what arelationship looks like when going into cuffing season, and how it looks as it's ending. 

We're all more than aware that Mondays are difficult for most everyone. While we don't have an official antidote for that beginning of the week gloom, these happy tweets might help you to remember that kindness still exists in this dark world. 

Whether you're having a really bad day, or going through something a little deeper, looking at happy photos sure as hell won't hurt when you're feeling down. These uplifting tweets and happy memes may not solve your problems, but they will probably make you feel a teeny bit better.

These memes will be pretty damn relatable to anyone who has a ball and chain. Sure, marriage can be an absolute joy, but as with any relationship there are highs & lows - and tons of reasons to complain.

If you can't stand to feel all the feels today, then you should stop reading now. This greentext story may be longer than most, but the payoff is real, and it's really freaking wholesome. Our "hero" ends up warming our hearts with a story of how he went from being an orphaned ten-year-old, to nerdy loner, to happy husband in the span of a little more than a decade. With all the bad news in the world, this tale sure does feel like a palate cleanser. If you find yourself needing more wholesome greentext after this heartwarming story, we've got 'em right here.
