Get out and stay out

A surprise gesture can mean the world to someone. If you're having a rough time, you might think that no one knows what you're going through, let alone cares. You might feel isolated and alone like the only person who truly has your back is you. But if a friend suddenly comes through in an unexpected way, it can flip that whole perspective. This is why we should always check in on each other. You can never be sure how much a nice gesture can mean to someone. But what happens when that person ta…

She's just being nice

You're allowed to wear whatever you want to your wedding. I've been on Reddit long enough to hear some pretty kooky wedding stories. Some folks want to get married in a Halloween costume. Some want to wear hunting gear. Some couples just want to elope and not tell anyone. Ultimately all valid ways to tie the knot. All that matters is that you're tying it after all, right? But some families don't feel that way and want their children to have the kind of wedding they envision for them. Whether th…

He couldn't do it himself?

Having a roommate can be a difficult situation to navigate, especially if one of you is third-wheeling. I know plenty of couples who live with one other person, and it can work if you're conscious about it. As the couple, you have to make sure you're not PDA-ing too hard in front of your roommate. And as the roommate, you have to assert yourself as an equal third. This balance can be tricky, though, as it can quickly feel like its two against one. But what happens when the couple is just doing…

Cooking is an act of love like anything else . I'm always so touched when someone cooks for me, even if it's just my roommate making a weeknight dinner. Cooking is an art form, so when someone is brave enough to share it with you, then you should treat it with the utmost respect. Unless they expressly invite criticism, I don't think you should comment on it in a negative way. This even holds true in a marriage. It might be even more important in the context of a marriage. Since nobody has to co…

Having children over at your house is no simple task . If you're used to existing in the adult world, having kids suddenly enter your space can be jarring. You realize quickly how much breakable stuff you own, how many sharp edges there are, how many possibly dangerous items you have lying around, and how kids have no regard for that kind of thing. It then becomes the job of the parents, or whoever is in charge, to make sure that the kids stay in their lane, as it were. That's just called good…

Living with someone rent-free always comes with strings attached. Maybe it's a family member doing you a favor, and if so, you should be expected to contribute more of your fair share of chores, if you're able. When you're not someone's child, you don't get the privilege of being completely taken care of. This is one of the tricky things about living with family. You have to strike the right balance of being respectful and out-of-the-way. One man didn't quite have that balance nailed and ran in…
