Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. In any relationship, it’s important to note each person’s expectations from the get go. If someone needs more or less attention, love, or gestures, it needs to be known. If someone expects their partner to cook, clean, shop, work, take care of the kids, and make them a sandwich everyday, then so be it. In this particular Reddit thread, the couple is just as I described above. They have two kids, one of which is a baby who needs a lot of care, a…

‘Secrets are never forever’ is a strong statement I never thought I would read in a Reddit story written by a woman who cheated on her husband, but here we are. When one tries to keep a secret, they might think there will come a day when enough time has passed from that one horrible thing they did, but the truth is, there is always a chance it will come out, in ways they would least expect it. The woman in this story cheated on her husband almost three decades ago, and she genuinely thought she…

They're both crazy.

She's literally me.

His good deeds paid off.

Can we compare modern love and dating to a painting?

Ladies, I want your full honesty on this one. As much as it is incredibly important to have a job, your own financial stability, and self-fulfillment, would it be great to just stay at home and let your partner do all the work? I genuinely do not think I would hate a life where I stay at home, and my husband works to ensure we have enough money to keep living. However, I would never do that to my partner, because I firmly believe in equality, and that we should both put in the same amount of ef…

He's okay with his mom being sassy, but not his wife?

The plot was foiled!

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. In a relationship, we need to feel that our partner s are there for us, that they support us, that we can turn to them in moments of desperation and need. If we feel as though we can’t, then it’s an immediate red flag. How is anyone supposed to feel comfortable in a partnership if they can’t even come to their partner in times of need? It’s ingrained in the term ‘partnership’ that it’s two people working together, as partners. In this Reddit th…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. As wome n, we’ve all been conditioned to be weary of the signs of a bad man. When your gut feeling is off, you know something is wrong. Our instincts are there for a reason, and it goes to show that we should always follow them. If we’re wrong in our gut feeling, we don’t lose anything, but if we’re right, then it’s better to leave a dangerous situation early on. This Reddit thread is about just that. The poster is a woman who went on a date wi…

Dog Moms Have Our Hearts

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. There’s nothing more painful than finding out about your partner's infidelity. No matter how you look at it, it hurts, and it’s a stab to your relationship, your trust, and your ego. However, there are certainly levels. And in general, I believe people are defined by how they react to things, how they cope with what they’ve done, rather than what they actually did. We all make mistakes, we’re all human, but it says more about a person when they…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the universe. Relationships have to be built on trust. It’s an integral part of a healthy dynamic between two people, and when it falls apart, the relationship will also perish. But there are definitely levels of trust …and there are boundaries that seem too ridiculous to be true. In this Reddit story, the original poster (OP) is a woman who’s just won the lottery. She had an agreement with her boyfriend that she’d split it with him, and she thought jokingly…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Our former lives and selves can sometimes come back to haunt us. It’s not everyday that we go back to our hometowns, and we’re suddenly flushed with memories we didn’t want to be reminded of. Why is it that we always run into that person we don’t want to see in the supermarket? No matter what we do, we have to deal with the past at some point. In this Reddit piece, the original poster (OP) is a man whose wife has a history of some trauma. While…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Everything we know about ‘tradition’ is being questioned and ridiculed. Not that tradition is bereft of its moral and redeeming qualities, but it’s losing an important place in the global and modern world. While it was once put on a pedestal of meaningfulness, it’s definitely more limited to ‘non progressives’ of the world. People don’t care about following the once widely held and worshiped norms of the past. Speaking of traditions flying out…
