couple

Marriage is the ultimate happily ever after. Two lovebirds have been lucky enough to find someone to have and to hold from this day forward. For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love, and to cherish till death do us part… unless of course, they kill each other first. "Happily" married couples take to Twitter on a weekly basis to put their partners on blast for the whole world to see.

If you're happily loved up in a relationship, then don't bother scrolling down. Or, if you want to be super mean and send these memes about being single to all your single friends, then please continue. But, if you're single as a pringle, and looking to mingle, then these memes are for you. They might make you feel even more alone than you already are, but hey, misery loves company. Amirite ladies? But also, men suck, so you do you, enjoy singlehood, and be grateful you don't have to look after a manchild. 

Valentines Day is just around the corner. If you're currently single, this day will only highlight just how alone you feel. Unless, of course, you're choosing not to be in a relationship, in which case then that too, is the reason that I am single. At least that's what I tell my mom. But if you're single because of other reasons (why doesn't anybody want me?!), then these memes are for you. All the single ladies, put your hands up!

It's almost Valentine's Day, and I'm getting ready for my yearly tradition: a scented bath, a bottle of vintage wine, feeding my crows and preparing the effigy of Clark Gable which I will burn in a forest with the rest of my coven as the clock strikes midnight and the spectre of St. Valentine bids us farewell. This is what we must do every year, as it is written. But recently I can't help wondering about the couple across the hall from my apartment. Charlotte and Mark have lived across from me for a few years now, and they're pretty nice and clearly in love, but they have some WEIRD traditions. I'm talking sh*t that you only see in movies, like going to the store to buy food instead of summoning it from the great beyond, or using electricity instead of lighting candles. Who doesn't use candles?? Anyway, I've just been thinking about all the crazy stuff they probably do for Valentine's day. Like…

When convincing my friends to take a leap of faith and pursue things with someone they think they might like, I try to push them by saying, "What's the worst that can happen? Either you break up or you get married. Those are the two options." But really, after further analysis, I can see now that there are really many MANY more directions a relationship can go in. I can think of 15 now, but until these apps manage to completely distort our dating experiences, and entirely hinder our ability to meet people ~organically~, well this is what I got for ya.

Anyone who is in or has been in a relationship will know that love isn't always easy. Everyone comes with baggage (although some suitcases are way bigger than others), and therapy can often help couples get through the more challenging times or specific issues they may be facing. But sometimes, even therapy isn't enough to salvage a relationship and push past specific glaring red flags. Professional relationship therapists shared on Reddit some of the giant red flags they've seen in couples who come in for sessions and whether or not the relationship can survive these issues. Some of them are genuinely eye-opening and might make you feel less alone in your relationship struggles. Or, they might spur you to book that therapy appointment you've been avoiding.

If you're used to getting eight hours of uninterrupted sleep every night, then marriage might not be for you. One of the sacrifices you have to make in a long-term, committed relationship is sharing a bed with someone else for the rest of your life and enduring night after night of snoring, duvet stealing, and heavy breathing. It's not ideal, by any means. But it's the small price we pay for love, right? Right? Anyone? These hilarious tweets from the spouses of Twitter show the relatably annoying aspects of sharing a bed.

Choosing your wedding photographer is a decision that every couple should take seriously. After all, they are the ones who will be creating the physical memories of your special day, which you'll (hopefully) look back at fondly for the rest of your life. But sometimes, photographers can miss the mark and leave you with some real horrors, such as this collection of wedding and engagement photo nightmares. Whether it was the couples who directed the shots, or the photographers who had the awful ideas, I can only look at these through squinted eyes. The further down I scroll, the more I lose hope in Cupid, love, and all things romance.

If you're in a relationship, then you'll remember the honeymoon phase all too well. Those weeks (or months if you were lucky) at the beginning of the relationship, where you were blinded by love and your partner could do no wrong. But pretty quickly, you probably went from worshipping the ground they walk on to wanting to kill them for the way they breathe. Or blink. Or sit quietly and exist. If you can relate to this, then these tweets about the 'illogical' reasons people got mad at their partners will hit you at all levels.

Divorce lawyers see the ugly side of love—the breakdowns in communication, the anger, and the resentment. Divorces can seriously bring out the nasty and petty sides of people. These divorce lawyers reveal the evilest, funniest and dumbest ways that spouses tried screwing the other over. From splitting everything physically down the middle to figuring out how to educate a shared parrot, they genuinely have seen it all when it comes to love, or the lack thereof.

As with everything in life, relationships come with risks. Sure, you could fall desperately in love, get married, and live happily ever after. I mean, that's the dream, right? Alternatively, you could fall for someone, and just as you finally feel secure, they dump you in a soul-crushing, heart-wrenching act of cruelty, causing you to lose all faith and hope in love. It's a real gamble. And the truth is, being dumped suck. It can bruise your ego, make you feel rejected, and question whether or not what you had was real for the other person. But some dumpings are more brutal than others, and these Redditers are sharing the harshest reasons their exes ended their relationship. What's the worst reason someone broke up with you? Or that you dumped someone?

Men and women both experience marriage very differently. And of course, by that I mean, the wife is always right, and the husband is always wrong. They say a happy wife equals a happy life, but just how true is that? We found some of the funniest tweets about marriage from husbands who know a thing or two about where they stand in the relationship. If their opinion is anything to go by, then a happy wife does indeed bring a happy life.

Sex is great, but have you ever been in bed with someone who has shouted out their dad's name or asked you to pray before you start? A big part of enjoying sex is about the mood you and your partner create to feel comfortable and enjoy each other. But sometimes your partner can say something that makes you want to die of awkwardness, and just like that, the moment is gone. Redditers share the strangest thing a partner has said or done during sex that instantly killed the mood, and the answers are cringe-worthy, to say the least. Here are some of the funniest.

Third-wheeling is every single person's nightmare. We've all been there, begrudgingly agreeing to hang out with a couple, on the promise from them that it won't be awkward. You know they're lying, but you go against your better judgment and hope for the best. But, all too soon, you're hit with that all-too-familiar feeling of feeling like you're cramping their style. These pictures of people third-wheeling will make you feel all sorts of uncomfortable, making you realize that two is company, but three truly is a crowd.
