There were easier ways to deal with this

It's fitting

In this day and age, women in the Western world have the freedom to pursue almost anything they want. Unfortunately, there are some people who feel the need to broadcast their regressive views from the 1950s over social media. We're totally all for women doing whatever they want - housewifery included - but this Twitter user made her husband sound like a straight-up manchild who can't take care of himself. With the cost of living constantly skyrocketing, being a housewife without a full-time jo…

A sense of humor is necessary when parenting

Please don't destroy your family because you felt an attraction to a stranger.

The biggest blessing of all

It's pretty hard to top the excitement and romance of J. Lo and Ben Affleck's Las Vegas nuptials, but that's not stopping famous people from getting engaged or married. The latest couple to announce their life-long commitment is Dane Cook and his girlfriend of 5 years, 23-year-old Kelsi Taylor. Yes, you read that right. Dane Cook is 50 years old and has been dating a 23-year-old for five years. Cook is the subject of a lot of contempt on and off the internet - mostly due to accusations of the r…

A wise man once said "Mawwiage. Mawwiage is what bwings us togethew today." And while he's not completely wrong, the merging of two souls in holy matrimony - or the celebration that follows - is also very capable of tearing people apart. The r/WeddingShaming subreddit is absolutely filled with tacky , petty, and altogether shameful moments that have either ruined or tainted the sanctity of romantic unions. There are Mother-in-laws who insist on wearing a white dress to their son's wedding. Ther…

Kermit and Miss Piggy they ain't

What do you do when you witness your a-hole in-law treating your sibling like crap? Do you keep your head down and stay out of their business, or do you intervene? One redditor decided on the latter after witnessing his exhausted sister get crap from her husband for not serving him dinner even though she'd cooked everything. Angry on his sister's behalf, OP taught his brother-in-law a lesson—a petty move that might have done more harm than good, but satisfying nonetheless.

“I though she was mad because her dessert was a little cube of Jell-O…”

Unchecked insecurity can ruin relationships and transform otherwise rational people into jealous monsters. When redditor u/abarbiegirl2021 changed her phone's background and home screen wallpaper to an image of Willem Dafoe as Klaus Daimler from The Life Aquatic, she didn't expect her husband to feel strongly about it. On the contrary, he was pretty upset. When taking her story at face value, u/abarbiegirl2021's husband seems totally unreasonable, but let's be honest—don't most of us have the p…

Every couple has their mundane problems, but what does it say about your relationship when you start to suspect your partner of conspiring against you? Either some underlying trust issues have always been lurking just under the surface of your otherwise healthy relationship, or maybe you really have been living with a duplicitous psychopath all along. Redditor u/ThrowRAissuesRA turned to Reddit for advice after a series of seemingly harmless games with their husband took an unsettling turn.

It is my belief that parenting is kind of like some antidepressants. The idea of them, especially when advertised on TV, is great: I'm into the promise of less sulking, more action, and a relatively positive attitude. Functioning is something everyone wants to do. The happy-go-lucky advert with its upbeat music is alluring. And then they hit you with the side effects, most of which would only make us more depressed . There's weight gain, loss of sex drive, diarrhea or constipation (sometimes bo…

Now that I'm in my mid-thirties, it's safe to say that I have been to a lot of weddings. I managed to get a little two year break because of Covid-19, but the invitations have started to pour in, and my bank account is getting pretty scared. While some of the weddings I've been to got a little sloppy, thanks to bridezillas and open bars, nothing too dramatic has happened at any of the unions I've attended. It's always seemed to me that the whole “Speak now or forever hold your peace” line was s…
