relationships

We know that men aren't the only ones who throw common sense out the window, or seem to approach life and relationships with a...unique...worldview. But damn, these 22 dudes really went above and beyond to make us face palm, laugh and smile. We'll never get sick of this sh*t. If you're craving more masculine humor, these 26 manly memes are here to satisfy you where these guys may have fallen short. 

Relationships take a lot of hard work to be successful, on behalf of both partners. There may be a fair amount of turmoil along the way, but hey, at least we learn something and also get some entertainment out of it!

Many people are in happy relationships, but there are also those of us who can't seem to lock anyone down no matter how hard we try. These memes are for the latter. Godspeed, because it's rough out there. 

For people who have found their special someone, these ain't for you, move along.

Okay, look. We know that the friend zone isn't a real thing. But damn, these tales of unrequited love and rejection are pretty damn entertaining nonetheless. 

Dating someone can have its fair share of hardships, but once you meet the right person it's totally worth it. These memes convey both sides of the coin, and we think you'll find them highly relatable.

Thank goodness for the constant stream of entertainment that comes from the Twitterverse. Sure, perusing Twitter means desperately avoiding smug or cringey political takes and K-pop stans, but sometimes we find gems that are worth it. This gallery is filled with relatable, weird, and clever tweets and memes that are pretty inoffensive. They're a perfect and non-committal break whether you're tired of the monotony or just love pointless tweets. Have at 'em! 

Swiping through Tinder can often be a supremely thankless and tedious activity. Everyone's looking for their "partner in crime," and everyone likes pizza and craft beer. Every now and then, however, a bio comes along that speaks volumes. A bio that showcases humor and intellect. If you're lucky the photos will be stimulating, too. This is a collection of the bios we like - may we all stumble upon them in our hunt for love.

When we first saw this comic, we thought that it was completely serious. But after scrolling down a little, you'll find that this is anything but the usual clickbaity relationship drivel. Instead of telling us that we're doomed for sleeping on opposite sides of the bed, the comic (from Sad and Useless) takes a weird and dark turn. Mostly thanks to a guy named Pete.

Whether you're happily in a relationship, or you've been single for ages and you're trying to get back out there, we're pretty sure there's something in this gallery for you. Now get scrolling!

Reddit's r/relationship_advice community has been especially active these days - mostly filled with people coping with coronavirus lockdowns and the relationship issues that go hand in hand with being quarantined with someone. Dating is never easy, but the threads that become popular on this subreddit sometimes show cringier dilemmas than we ever thought possible. And that's definitely the case for this unlucky couple. As the frustrated man explained to the community late last night, his girlfriend recently "came out" to him as an otherkin. After eight months of dating, she revealed that she feels she is a cat in a human's body. 

His partner, who believes she can communicate with cats, went as far as to quit her job. Why? Because cats don't work. The whole thing sounds excruciating, and redditors were quick to respond with both earnest advice, and some seriously hilarious comment gold. And we've included both category of response for your convenient perusal. Here's hoping he gets out of this one relatively unscathed.

Being a parent can sometimes be the most thankless ob in the universe. Between ungrateful children, the whining, the smells, and the stress, we have to salute anyone who signs away eighteen years of their life to raise a little hellion. These memes will be pretty relatable to anyone who has changed a diaper, and especially to anyone so tired they would check themselves into a psych ward. We see you.

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. And if you're in a mood for a laugh have a look at these funny relationship memes that even single people might relate to.

Facebook is a wonderfully entertaining cesspool of freaks. From pyramid scheme promoting moms to anti-vaxxers, the whole site is a veritable goldmine of cringe. And we've just stumbled upon some Grade A material. After her ex-boyfriend's mother talked smack about her dead grandmother, one enterprising woman took it upon herself to steal some astro turf from the maternal shit-talker. And then tried to sell it. While some of her Facebook friends were supportive of the criminal act, the mom herself makes an appearance in the comments and things go downhill (or uphill, depending on how you look at it) from there. 

Warning: if you're sensitive about foul language, do not proceed. These people boast very colorful vocabulary.

Rapper Future is no stranger to the meme game. He's been the star of many a mocking relationship-centric meme since "Future Sending Exes Texts" came onto the scene around Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, instead of making a mockery of ex-boyfriends, this meme seems to wag a finger at promiscuous women. The tweets feature the text "She belongs to the streets," which was popularized by Future - and many of the meme creators seem to acknowledge their misogynistic nature by labeling the rapper's tome as the "Book of Misogyny." We're hoping the people who retweet the memes are aware of the slightly problematic message - and hope women know it's okay to run free. We all know that dudes see no qualms about it.
