"Europe will still be there."

Ignorance is bliss, a common and quotable phrase that everyone can resonate with. There’s two types of people: one that needs to know everything they don’t want to hear, and the one who wants to be blind in blissful ignorance. Once you know something, you can’t unknow it. Once you know something, it could haunt you for years to come, and at the end of the day if you can’t do anything about it, it could very well be useless to have found out. The truth is a tricky, daunting, and fickle subject.…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. I think we can all agree that it would be ridiculous to wear white to someone’s wedding, right? For some reason there are countless people who don’t understand this, and don’t adhere to it. I guess they think the wedding is more for them and less for the people getting married. Some people just think the world revolves around them. In this Reddit thread, the original poster (OP) is a woman who got married, in conjunction with a bit of family dr…

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Girl, dip dye your own dress!

Insecurities: we all have them, no matter how beautiful we are, how successful, or how much we fight them, everyone has their own insecurities. They’re masterfully specific too, I truly believe that no two insecurities are alike. Maybe on the surface they come out as a certain type of jealousy, but their origin always holds its own unique tale. They could stem from our childhoods , from the way a parent has treated us, from an event on a school playground, but they’re intersected with our inner…

Lads and ladies of the internet, welcome. Sisters: either best friends, or worst enemies. Let’s face it ladies, women can be catty, and when you’re related to each other and share the same boiled blood and heated tempers, the cattiness can really shine through. It’s not the most enjoyable thing to always be around a baby, child, or infant, but when a close family member has a kid, it’s just what comes with the situation. In this Reddit thread, the original poster (OP) is a woman who feels like…

Even if having a child was not at all what you had planned in your life, once you do have a child, you cannot ignore that responsibly. Nobody wants to be in the position of being “forced” to take care of another human being they were not prepared to have, but sometimes that is just how life goes. If one does find themselves in this position, the last thing one should do is throw the responsibility onto someone else and then disappear, which is exactly what the woman in this Reddit story did. Sh…

Physical and emotional storm

Regardless of our age or life experience, we all want our privacy. For some people, this wasn’t an opinion growing up. With many siblings and not enough rooms in the home, it could happen that people had to share bedrooms. I’ve had to, but only for a year in college. It’s definitely uncomfortable, and can cause emotional disturbances that you weren’t prepared to deal with. Everyone needs their privacy. This brings us to the Reddit thread. The original poster (OP) is a teenager whose parents are…

Sibling rivalry gone wrong.

"He stormed off, and I shouted that I didn't know I was engaged to a child who threw a tantrum when he didn't get what he wanted."

Everywhere you go, you will meet people who have it better than you and people who have it worse. That is just life. We cannot all be in the same situation, and it is best to not compare ourselves to others because someone is bound to get hurt as a result. The girl in this Reddit story needs this serious reminder, as she thinks it is okay to act unbearably entitled at her aunt's house. OP (original poster) and her sister went over to their aunt's house to babysit her kids, when the sister decid…

Family shouldn't be a one-way street

So, why won't the rest of the family help?

Babies are, in fact, a top priority to new mothers
