Most people have had a possessive ex at some point in their dating history. Whether they were terribly insecure, had trust issues, or were just downright toxic, controlling partners are NOT something you want to keep around regardless of how good the sex may be. We teamed up with dating blog The Single Society to share the experiences of 10 different women and the most ridiculous 'rules' their ex's tried to impose on them. Do you have a crazy/possessive/toxic ex story who made outrageous demands? Please spill the tea. And if you haven't already, drop their ass.

Everyone dreams of marrying someone with the perfect parents, but unfortunately, most sets of in-laws come with their flaws. Whether they're over-involved, overstep your boundaries, or just overall toxic people, navigating the relationships with your in-laws can be highly complicated. They say you don't just marry a person; you marry their family as well, and so it's important to try and maintain as good a relationship with your in-laws as possible. Unfortunately, some don't make this an easy task. One woman posted on Reddit's Am I The A—hole asking what to do about her in-laws, who refused to compromise on eating healthier meals whenever she and her husband visited. She explained how all her in-law's food choices were extremely unhealthy, and when the OP tried making healthier alternatives, they complained and found her cooking equally as disgusting as she found theirs.

People are seeking more mental health treatment today than ever before.

It's like having to kiss a million frogs before finding your prince—it's kinda draining. People on Reddit shared the worst things that a therapist, psychiatrist, or mental health professional ever said to them, and the responses are so bad, they make you wonder how these professionals ever got their license in the first place.
