That's just cruel...

Betrayal is a sting that even the thick-skinned and strong-willed can still get scathed by. When you marry someone, you expect to have your fair share of arguments, disagreements, and fights. You can anticipate hard times, but no one anticipates having their heart broken by the sundering of loyalty. It’s a different kind of pain, a pain that meditates in your heart and soul for longer than anyone ever wants to admit. Betrayal also wears many faces; it could be infidelity, lying, or simply hidin…

Some people are more in tune with time than others. I personally have many friends that no matter how many times you remind them to get ready, or how much time you give them in advance, they will always be late. I choose to see it as endearing, knowing that they’re not doing it out of malice or immaturity. To be honest, it’s sometimes even cultural. Though countries like Japan and Germany run to the T, other countries aren’t as prompt in their adherence to time’s ticking clock. So what happens…

Wife test!?

Let fall the citadel around your heart, and embrace classical art memes

The dating world is a rough place. It’s not easy to be on the same terms as someone else, and you can be going along for a while until you realize you’re speaking different languages or have different expectations. To expect to be a priority in your partner’s life should be the bare minimum. It’s shocking how many relationships I know where one person isn’t getting their needs met, and the other acts as if they’re single. There’s no worse feeling than seeing your partner put someone else’s (non…

He was like family...

She's thriving without him.

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. For some people, food is their love language. Cooking with your partner is intimate and meaningful, you can open a bottle, rehash your days, and even start conversations about your innermost desires. Feeling like you’re taking care of your partner and nurturing them is a special way of expressing your love. What happens when your partner becomes critical of your culinary skills? It can be a hard pill to swallow if your love language is cooking…

Any healthy relationship should be predicated on trust , loyalty, and honesty. There’s no excuse for lying to your partner’s face, or hiding things behind their back. Although it may seem pedantic to have such stringent rules about betrayal, when you see the red flags that your partner could be hiding something from you or potentially cheating, there’s only one answer – run! In this Reddit thread, the original poster (OP) is a man who has noticed some strange behavior from his wife while she’s…

Having shared values with your significant other is one of the most important dynamics in a relationship. I always felt like it’s even concomitant to find someone who has overlapping values to you, because if they didn’t it would have been difficult to get further in the relationship. How a person feels about money, marriage, or children matters a lot. If you’re someone who isn’t so into contrived aesthetics, normal hygiene, or materialism, then you're probably going to attract another similar…

Usually, when a woman finds out that her husband is being unfaithful to her, the first thing she will want to do is leave him and never look back. Unfortunately, for some women leaving is not that easy, especially not for stay-at-home mothers. Having no financial stability to fall back on when leaving your spouse can understandably make women question whether or not they should leave at all, which is exactly what happened to the woman who wrote this story. Luckily, this brave woman carefully an…

‘Money, it’s a crime. Share it fairly, but don’t take a slice of my pie,’ are lyrics from the illustrious psychedelic band, Pink Floyd, in their ever popular hit song, Money . Money makes the world go round, it can make someone wildly ecstatic, or the lack of it can leave someone in shambles. It’s like an ether of everything necessary and everything corrupt. It’s too easy to lose one’s way with green tinted glasses. Money in relationships gets even trickier; expectations about financial payouts…

The Life And Times of A Married Woman

I don't think insulting people is the most effective way to get people to do favors for you.

There is nothing worse in a relationship than to find out that the person you love and thought you were going to spend the rest of your life with is being unfaithful.

So, as a thought exercise, let's grade these next cheating scenarios, 1 being the least bad, and 10 being the absolutely worst: If a partner cheats one year into a relationship with a complete stranger neither of you…
