Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Whilst in a relationship, some people express their love through giving gifts. We’re all familiar with the five different love languages, and gift giving is definitely among the ways of conveying one’s affection and appreciation. It feels so good to surprise someone with something small, but special. It’s a way o f saying ‘I’m thinking about you. ’ I remember in one of my relationships, I would always surprise my boyfriend with homemade cakes w…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Have you ever quit or been fired on the spot? There’s a sense of empowerment about quitting somewhere right then and there. To throw the apron on the ground, and storm out in front of the boss and other employees is a huge way to stick it to the man. You can walk away feeling relieved, empowered, and justified. But being fired on the spot? Now that's a different story. It can invoke shame, disappointment in oneself, and embarrassment. This brin…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. As they say, revenge is a dish best served cold. Or is revenge a dish best served covered in truffle oil, buffalo mozzarella, and prosciutto? According to this Reddit thread, it’s the latter. In this Reddit piece, the original poster (OP) is a woman who’s sick of being left out of the office. Everyday, their office orders lunch together and eats together. Not only do they continually forget her order, but her lunch time has been pushed to a tim…

I love my sister and I love our relationship, which is why I am smarter than to allow money to get mixed up in that relationship and ruin it. If you also cherish your relationship with your sibling, I advise you to follow suit. Nothing good comes out of mixing family and money, even if your initial plan was to do something kind for each other. The sisters in this Reddit story didn't expect their relationship to end when they decided that one sister would move into the other's apartment, but tha…

mandatory team bonding

Thanksgiving is hands down a ubiquitous holiday favorite. I think we can admit how much we love the warmth of the fireplace, decorative leaves everywhere, and the myriad of smells emitting from the kitchen. Your mother has been cooking up a storm since 5 am, turkey basting in the oven, potatoes boiling on the stove, pecan and pumpkin pies set aside for dessert. It’s a magical holiday of sensory wonders, and you get to see the whole family too. Not having the privilege to be with your family for…

"I just wish he would leave me alone and never ask me for anything again."

While in relationships, you always want to be on the same page as your partner, share similar values, and even have the same movie tastes. It may seem like petulant or superficial compatibility, but I think they’re more important than people realize. I couldn’t imagine having dinner with my boyfriend, and being disappointed when I realize he’s vegan and we can’t share anything. Or having a movie night and absolutely cringing about their movie suggestions. Those are just tastes, what about life…

Need the weekend ASAP.

The phrases ‘work wife’ and ‘work husband’ have entered our colloquial vernacular overnight. Who decided this is okay? Personally, I think it’s a little cringe. If you’re both single, it just comes off as immature and withholding. Just date if you are already calling them husband and wife. But if you’re in a relationship …it’s even weirder. Imagine calling a male friend, ‘second boyfriend,’ to your partner? This nomenclature isn’t meaningless. If it’s just friends, then why does their title imp…

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. No job will ever be perfect. If it’s not the pay, it’s the commute. If it’s not the commute, it’s the job itself. And if it’s not the job itself, then it’s your coworkers. People spend one third of their life at work, so everyone wants it to be under pleasant circumstances. In my opinion, you can hate your job, but if you hate the people then you’re doomed. The people you work with make or break the work environment. It could be your dream job,…

Usually, when a woman finds out that her husband is being unfaithful to her, the first thing she will want to do is leave him and never look back. Unfortunately, for some women leaving is not that easy, especially not for stay-at-home mothers. Having no financial stability to fall back on when leaving your spouse can understandably make women question whether or not they should leave at all, which is exactly what happened to the woman who wrote this story. Luckily, this brave woman carefully an…

Having to work on Halloween should be illegal

Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. Hostility between coworkers can affect one’s quality of life to such an extent that they don’t even want to go to the office anymore. And unfortunately, every workplace has that one ‘Karen’ type . The one who’s in everybody’s business , the one who causes the HR fumbles, and the one who everyone hates. If you have a Karen in your office, it’s time to be on the lookout. In this Reddit thread, the original poster (OP) is a woman who’s accidentall…
