marriage

The gentlemen of Bridgerton have inevitably captured our hearts as of late - some more so than others. As a super single Netflix enthusiast who is still very much on the marriage market, naturally, it was my duty to detail the lords who would make the best boyfriends and the trash that shouldn't even bother trying. And I did it all without Anthony Bridgerton's shitty suitor advice too! So make haste, and read on to meet your ideal Regency era boyfriend.

SPOILERS AHEAD, so don't say I didn't warn ya. 

Relationships have their ups and downs. Sure, therapy is a great way to process your feelings, but it's expensive as f*ck. Twitter, on the other hand, is free. So when you need to rant about your partner who is driving you crazy or complain about being so single that you're starting to grow cobwebs down there (speaking for a friend, of course), then tweeting about it can be almost as therapeutic as therapy. Welcome to this week's funniest relationship tweets, where all the highs and lows of love get penned in 280 characters or less.

Navigating relationships can be challenging at the best of times but throw a global pandemic into the mix, and you've got yourself a whole new level of stress. This year's funniest relationship tweets are just more examples of how the trials and tribulations of love can test us to our absolute limits. And they also prove how therapeutic it can be to vent about them on Twitter. 2020 has been a total sh*t show for most people, and it's reflected in our relationships.

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.

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?

If their opinion is anything to go by, then a happy wife does indeed bring a happy life.

A healthy marriage is about a partnership. It means celebrating each other's successes — both professional and personal — and realizing that one person's achievement benefits both people in the relationship. But sometimes, the fragile male ego gets in the way, leaving some men unable to celebrate their wives' success, especially if they feel insecure about their accomplishments. Like this guy who posted on Reddit's Am I The A-hole, who couldn't handle the fact that his wife received a promotion at work while he was unemployed. Instead of celebrating her success, he accused her of "bragging" about it (which, of course, she wasn't, she was only hoping her husband would show her the basic and expected levels of pride and support). Of course, everyone accused him of toxic masculinity and called him a massive a**hole. Personally, I can't even believe this guy is real.

Married women often wonder if they have a husband or simply a grown man-child they have to take care of forever. Husbands can genuinely get on our last nerves, and these wives have had it up to here with their spouses. They took to Twitter to vent their frustrations, and they didn't hold back. Enjoy these hilarious rants, observations about husbands who probably had it coming for a while.

Everyone loves a good wedding. A day full of romance, happiness, and celebration, watching two people celebrate their love is a beautiful thing. But let's be honest; no good wedding is complete without a little bit of drama. Whether it's a bridezilla, a nightmare mother-in-law, or drunk guests, they make for great stories. People on Reddit shared some of the worst weddings they've ever been to, and some of these anecdotes are real gold dust!

Tina Turner once famously sang, "What's love got to do, got to do with it"? Well, everything. The thing about love is that we can't live without it, but boy, oh boy, can it drive us up the wall. Whether you're happily single or pining for someone you can't have, or whether you're in a messy situationship or happily married, love affects us all. So here are this week's funniest relationship tweets, which bring some humor and a positive spin on that tricky little thing that we call love. All, from the big wide world of Twitter. 

The division of labor at home is an essential discussion that couples need to have before moving in together or getting married. The boundaries of traditional gender roles are becoming more and more blurred, as two incomes become necessary for many families to survive. But, if you're a woman and you're in the position to be a stay-at-home mom, then that's not to say you've got the easy way out at all. Stay-at-home moms have it tough, and being able to count on your husband or partner for support when they get home from work is a crucial part of the role. One stay-at-home mom of four was so sick of her husband's lack of contribution to the housework or child-raising that she decided to boycott her 'duties' one weekend, spending the whole Saturday locked in a room, playing video games. Her husband was furious and even called his mom to complain, who then had a go at her DIL (hi, manchild!) The woman posted on Reddit's Am I The A-Hole, to get an outside perspective as to whether she was overacting or whether marriage counseling was the only thing that would save the marriage. Read through the comments, which are all pro-her. Her husband sounds unbearable and like he lives in the '50s.

The internet is full of people who make you say "WTF," and this guy is undoubtedly one of them. He posted on the subreddit Am I The A-Hole, explaining how he thought the surprise professional boudoir photos his wife had taken for him were "desperate" and indicative of the midlife crisis he suspected she was having. This absolute gem of a husband explained how his "aging" 41-year-old wife looks starkly different from "everybody else in our group of mid to late thirties people," adding, "Frankly I don't think the boudoir photos make her any more or less flattering... a quick glance at them did nothing for me."

Ummm, OK. First off, any change in appearance over two or three years at that age is negligible. Anyone sensible knows that. So, this guy's delusional views on what women should look like are already painting a picture of the type of person he is. Secondly, his poor wife, who quite clearly feels insecure about her body (probably because of her dckwad of a husband who makes her feel like total sht), was looking for a confidence boost. His reaction is at best indifferent, and at worst, feeding and magnifying all her insecurities, making her feel like total sht. As you probably guessed, Redditors unanimously voted him an a*hole. Please scroll down for his story and to see the comments people left him. Spoiler: they didn't hold back.

Sometimes, the only way to distract yourself from your romantic perils is to post them on Twitter and laugh about them with the rest of the world. It doesn't matter whether you're single, married, or in some weird situationship; everyone can relate to our weekly selection of funny relationship tweets. Enjoy this week's haul, and then look at some more for further love-related humor.

Marriage is all fun and games until your husband annoys you so much you want to kill him. Through all the ups and downs of married life, the most important thing is to laugh with each other. And to laugh at each other, depending on how much your significant other annoys you. So scroll through these marriage memes, which might explain your marriage better than you can because memes express the words we don't know how to say.
