It's normal not to feel the same emotions as your partner while reacting to the same situation. Being in a relationship doesn't automatically make you the same person. However, it's important to recognize and notice when something is important to your partner and react appropriately. If your wife says Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory is her favorite movie, it's probably best not to call her an uncultured fool for even considering that trash to be one of the best movies of all time. If your…

Some 'friend'

I can't imagine how difficult it must be to date as a blind person . I'm sure every hack has a hot take about who would date a blind person, and they're all pretty insulting. "This guy is so ugly; he could only pull a blind chick!" "Good thing he can't see her because if he could, he'd be in for a rude awakening." News flash: blind people are not clueless about the nuances of attractiveness just because they do not experience sight the same way sighted people do. Blindness does not make people…

I need to get something off my chest. You know all those viral TikToks where people take you through their adorable little morning routines? Well, I hate them. I really, really hate them.

Earlier this year, a parent described supporting their adopted kid's emotional ne…

Get off that high horse, y'all.

I find nothing more baffling than customers who insist on staying at a restaurant after it has closed. I have been mopping the floors of an eating establishment around families sitting at the table just talking and carrying on. It's people like these who make me grateful that I at least have the decency and social skills not to behave the way they do. One TikToker has dedicated his page to documenting frustrating situations like this. Dean Redmond posts videos divulging the juicy and frustratin…

Being rejected by a partner (or potential partner) is never fun. Neither is rejecting someone. But as actions go, there's definitely a right way and a wrong way to let a person down. The right way involves honestly, empathy, and hopefully meeting in person - or at least a somber phone call. Even “It's not you, it's me” is an acceptable theme, as it's a situation that often rings true when a relationship simply doesn't click. So while there are a number of considerate ways to tell someone that y…
