marriage

Love and dating may not be all romance and roses, but it's definitely nice to have someone special in your life - especially during the crazy times we're experiencing right now. These relatable relationship memes for the committed cover all the bases: sappiness, the occasional neediness, and wholesome shout outs to people who are unafraid to express their feelings. 

Listen. We get it. Things are pretty tough right now. We've all got cabin fever and are extremely tired of seeing everyone and their mom share pictures of the sourdough starters and banana bread. But. Looking at Twitter, and all its wonderfully relatable self-deprecating gems, we're definitely not alone. We're sure there's a tweet or two in here that you relate to. And if not? Well, you just occupied yourself for about five minutes. Congratulations.

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.

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. 

It's hard enough to keep one person alive and happy, yet here we humans are, pledging to help keep another poor soul happy in sickness and in health. While marriage supposedly has its romantic perks, there are a whole lot of un-sexy aspects to holy matrimony. That's what these memes are all about.

Relationships and marriages certainly have their ups and downs. Along with the intimacy and friendship come stupid fights and a lot of sass. There's also some hilarious inside jokes and those stereotypes we all pretend aren't true. These tweets definitely paint a pretty accurate picture of the glamour.

Dear God (no pun intended), this story is a hoot if we ever saw one. When this girl didn't get invited to her friend's bachelorette party in Vegas, she made a scene until the bride decided to invite her. It doesn't stop there though: she then sent out an email with a list of very Christian-influenced "rules" for the bride and her friends, and let's just say they're quite tame for a bachelorette getaway in Sin City...

Married life isn't always what it's cracked up to be. These memes really say it all.

Some people idealize their significant others. They put their lovers on a pedestal, convince themselves that their beloved can do no wrong. These anecdotes come from people who can no longer do that. These anecdotes are from people who were given irrefutable proof that their partner's might have a screw loose or very little common sense - but they love 'em anyway. Brace yourself: stupidity is coming. 

There's something of an art to the perfect tweet. Whether it's a painstakingly and perfectly worded gem from weird twitter, or a 10 word relatable tidbit, chances are the tweeter has some kind of skill. We've rounded up this mix of bizarro comedy and #itme content to keep you from losing your sh*t, whether you're at work or just sitting on the toilet.

You thought the sappy content was over because Valentine's Day has come and gone? You were wrong. But there's more than saccharine relationship memes in this gallery. This gallery is a shout out to the good, the bad, and the ugly sides of being coupled up. It's not always (and sometimes never) rose petals and chocolates. It's more like, minor grudges, eating dinner in silence on the couch, juggling two families worth of plans and sometimes just being happy to get a few minutes alone. These memes represent that real kind of love that is kind of hard to convey in a pink card.

Holy mother of entitled a-holes, y'all! 

We don't like stereotyping people, but we all know the classic trope of the "bridezilla" who has to have everything her way and will stop at absolutely nothing to get it. To an extent, we sort of understand that behavior - planning a wedding is an incredibly stressful thing after all. However, this insane bride took the whole "entitled" thing waaay too far. It's really no surprise that she's on her third marriage!

The clock seems to tick so slowly when you have nothing to do. To prevent yourself from staring at it anxiously, indulge in some of these memes, tweets, and comics to keep you busy. They may not speed up time, but they'll make everything seem a little less agonizing.
