Welcome back internet ladies and gentlemen. Never before in the history of man did people have so many inexplicable and unexplainable issues surrounding food. There isn’t just lactose intolerant anymore. From peanut allergies, to vegetarianism, veganism, and gluten free, when hosting a dinner party these days it can be impossible to account for everybody’s restrictions. I once even heard a woman say she can’t have garlic. People are coming up with everything in the book and claiming they can’t…

IBS queens, please stand up

Having a good relationship with your partner's family is something no one should take for granted. For some reason, it is so rare to feel at home with your loved one's family, and if someone does feel comfortable, they should hold on to that as strongly as they can. It seems like the family in this Reddit story is on great terms with each other, which is why it is surprising that OP (original poster) is looking to cause drama. OP is happily married to his wife, who, as it seems, is close to her…

Get that bread.

Time to tightly close the love jar

Money is always the leading factor in breakups, and this case is no different. A long-distance romance reached a crossroads after 2 years. A man was visiting his girlfriend and her 3 kids for what was supposed to be a happy step towards a more committed future. However, the visit threw their compatibility into question fairly quickly. The girlfriend, struggling financially to raise her kids, was allowed to order full meals and large drinks at restaurants, knowing they likely wouldn't even finis…

When two people start a new relationship, the differences between their financial states can become a gap that is hard to overlook, which can seriously affect the nature of the relationship. With one usually having more money than the other, any costly outing can become awkward and confusing for them both. However, all of that can be solved simply by good communication between the two. Suppose a couple simply talked about their financial differences and had a mature conversation about what they…

One of my biggest pet peeves when it comes to sharing a home with my boyfriend is having to also share my food. Sharing my bed? I am totally okay with. Sharing a Netflix account? Sure. Sharing my snack? That is where I draw the line. The problem, and I am sure anyone who has ever lived with a man before can back me up here, is that they rarely have self-control when it comes to food. If the food is around, they will probably eat it, no matter who it belongs to. Even if I make my boyfriend swear…

One of the most important parenting tips that I can give young parents is always to be a unanimous front in front of their children. Never fight in front of the kids, and never turn the kids against the other parent. You have to be together, or at least appear to be together when you are educating your kids, and only later, behind closed doors, talk about the disagreements you might have with one other. Otherwise, the only thing that the kids will learn is that they can get away with whatever t…

You can tell a lot about a person by how they treat animals. It shows their respect for boundaries, how kind they are, and how patient. This is the same reason why people say that getting a pet is a good test to see how you will handle having actual kids. And I firmly believe that applies not only for the parents but to everyone else in the family as well. The family in this Reddit story showed their true colors when the older sibling and his girlfriend decided to adopt a cat. The mom completel…

Disputes over food might be one of the most common flights between two people in a relationship. It can be a flight over something as small as one not washing the dishes from last night's dinner, but also as big as one not respecting the other's eating restriction and literally forcing them to remain hungry. Yes, I am talking about the husband in this Reddit story, and please, let me explain. A woman turned to Reddit after she and her husband had some friends over, and they decided to order piz…

A wedding is a joyous ceremony that honors love and the joining of two people in the holy bond of matrimony. It represents unity, commitment, eternity, and family. So, how would you respond if your mother tried to make you serve food on your special day that none of your husband's family members could eat? The story below describes a bewildered mother. The original poster (OP) had volunteered to provide the food on the wedding day of each of her children. Therefore, OP offered to assist with fo…
