weird

A relationship is basically an experiment that you can't really prepare for beforehand. You have to take a lot of educated guesses in order to understand how to treat your partner right. And what your past partner enjoyed will not be the same as your current one. I guess I'm making it seem like it's a lot of hard work, but it kind of is... However when it's worth it, you don't look at it that way. If you want to It's fun to learn someone, especially when they keep you on your toes.

Sometimes it can be so difficult to watch movies with the most unrealistic plot-lines and characters. But it also can be really hilarious as well. Like how do these directors think we are buying these ideas? It can become so predictable, maybe they know though that we secretly crave a little predictability in our films, especially these days when everything else in the world is an utter mess. These Twitter users completely matched the absurdity of these films in their tweets.

Whether you like it or not, there is proper texting etiquette. You don't need to use periods or capital letters, nothing fancy like that. But you shouldn't send 8 messages in a row, especially unsolicited. No need for incessant amounts of emojis or lol's. The more succinct the better. It might seem complicated, but to every art, there is a technique. Lol. But seriously, not everyone understands how to text like a regular person and it really shows.

Being a woman can feel weird a lot of the time. There are things that we all go through that we just straight up don't talk about sometimes and that's just the norm. We get one stern talking to about our periods when we're like 12 and then that it... go and fend for yourselves! Well if you think you go through some strange sh*t as well, maybe you can relate to some of these posts!

I seriously wonder what goes through peoples' minds sometimes. In what world should women be 'flattered' for them requesting nude photos? It can really put women in an awkward position. Do I trust him? Does he really like me? Why doesn't he just ask me to hang out so he can see it all in person? I've heard that our parents generation  used to meet at a hidden spot in their neighborhood, count down from three, flash each other, and then run away. No cameras, no screenshots, no evidence! Though, still wouldn't fully recommend that since public nudity is illegal in many places. Can't have it all I guess.

Whenever a girl is on a date she is very observant. She notices the way you talk to the waitress, the way you tucked in your shirt, and the way you talk about other girls. All of these things tell her a lot about you and allow her to make real informed decisions regarding the possibility of a second date. If the two of you part your ways after the first date and never speak again, there is always a reason, it may not be a significant one, but rest assured something happened that made her say, "This ain't it."

Let's be honest, children ask too many questions. It's a beautiful thing how creative they are, but it can also get freaking annoying to explain every single thing in the world to them. If you get them down the "why" train you'll never be able to escape.

 "Mommy, why can't I go outside?" 

"Because it's freezing"

 "Why?"

"Because temperature is under 30 degrees" 

"Why?" 

"Because it's winter" 

"Why?" 

"Because we're in the northern hemisphere of Earth"

"Why"

"AHHHHHHHHHHH"

Sometimes it's just easier to throw in a white lie.

Ah, pickup lines. Some people swear by them, others can't even pretend to entertain the people using them. Personally, they used to annoy me, but I think we can all agree that a little part of us misses the days when random strangers would come up to us in the bar and we could roll our eyes at the sound of, "Are you from Tennessee.... Because you're the only ten-I-see" or "Did it hurt... When you fell from Heaven?" E-pickup lines sent over dating apps just don't hit the same.

The choice to begin a relationship is a biggie. So often we tell ourselves to not over-think that decision, to ~follow our hearts~, but sometimes our heart is just confused AF and then we have to effectively undo our spontaneous decisions. Seems harsh, but maybe it's still better than knowing you're not into it and stringing the other person along for months, maybe years? Decide for yourself.

Whenever Valentine's day rolls around, I can't help but remember the weirdest Valentine's day first date I ever had. This was a few years ago now, but it still feels like just yesterday, because it was literally wild. I agreed to go out with this guy from my gym, let's call him Doug. I was single and ready to be swept off my feet, so when he proposed a special Valentine's day dinner and dancing event, I was psyched! Only when I got there...it turned out to be a double date. WITH HIS PARENTS. And not like "oh we happened to bump into each other and decided to sit together." No. Turns out, he called them the second I said yes and ASKED them to come on a date with us. And so began the most painfully awkward night of my life…

Nobody can control their dreams, and it can be really frustrating sometimes, like when you're trying to run away from a monster and you are making no progress. Ugh, it's annoying just thinking about it. Sometimes dreams can be nice though, even pleasurable. Every so often you realize your true feelings for someone because they popped up in your REM. But sometimes you have an intimate dream that is just messed up. It happens to everyone, nothing to be ashamed of. Just... remember it's only a dream, right?

Doing the deed can be very intimidating. Sometimes it can feel like an endless guessing game, constant trial and error for men. But really, most women would agree that it is much better to ask rather than go ahead assume you know what a girl likes. News flash! All girls are different. I know, isn't that crazy? You may think you have mastered the female pleasure system, but if you really want to succeed, you should just start from square one with each girl. It takes two to tango after all.

Nothing is inherently sexual. Even the body parts we often associate with sexual activities. It is all about the connotations we actively place what we see around us. To you, a lamp is just a lamp, but to Tiffany, that lamp belongs in one place and one place only. And hey! That's what Tiffany's into and we should all be supportive of her journey. 

Anywho, enjoy this list of people's turn-on's that they feel are too weird to share in public, but just weird enough to share on Reddit.

The world is divided into two types of people: those who cook and those who don't. Those who don't get takeout or buy microwave meals, and those who do, take pride in their work (mostly). They all have their secret tips and trips to make recipes easier and tastier, which they've discovered along the way or learned from their mom or grandma. Discovering cooking hacks happens to be a passion of mine, and I'm always eager to find new ways to improve my recipes. People reveal their "weird, but life-changing" cooking hacks in this Reddit thread, uncovering some real gems. Please scroll down to read them and get yourself one step closer to being a (somewhat) professional chef.

If you think you've seen creepy kid's toys before, you haven't seen anything like this. Meet Fugglers, the stuffed animals which contain human teeth. Yes, that's right, you read that correctly. Artificial. Human. Teeth. Why those need to be in a children's toy, I'll never know. But Mrs. McGettrick, the UK-based artist behind Fugglers decided that they were necessary for the toys' structural integrity. You can find the atrocities on her Amazon store if you're so inclined to freak your kids out beyond their imagination.

If 2020 has taught us anything, it's that no matter how bad things seem, they can always get worse. This sentiment can also be applied to the sh*t show that is modern dating. You may think you have been on some bad dates, but they can only be worse! We teamed up with The Single Society to show you exactly how awful this sh*t show can be. Here are some examples of the weirdest things guys have done on a first date!
