Are the youngest generations bad at making friends, or do we just not understand them?  There are a couple of reasons why Gen Z might seem worse at relationships than previous generations. By now, we’ve all realized that social media has created new forms of intimacy that have reshaped how we think about relationships.

Woman reflects on why Gen Z is so bad at friendship: ‘There is a huge need for belonging, but very little tolerance for other people's mistakes’

If you don’t see a problem with living at your parents' house at age 31, you might want to look again  Everyone can go through a rough patch and have to move back to their parents'.

31-year-old man says he sees no problem with living with his parents indefinitely: ‘I just don’t see a reason to move out. I enjoy living here. I have a side entrance to get into the house, so there’s a bit of privacy’

I don’t think overreacting is the right word for what happened in this story  How a person handles money is as important as how they handle many other things. And knowing how people manage their income is a crucial part of getting to know them.

Woman disappointed with how her friend handles money: ‘It also hit a nerve because I’ve had this issue with family too, where people seem to assume that because I have nice things, I can just absorb costs’

Mothers-in-law are a trope in fairy tales for a reason  Apparently, this is an ancient behavior; mothers-in-law have been getting too involved in their son’s relationships for a long time. The only relationships that survive are the ones that manage to keep the mothers-in-law at bay.

Intrusive mother-in-law rearranged granddaughter’s nursery without permission: ‘She's commented on my cooking, my "Instagram parenting," and once told Nora in front of me that "Grandma will teach you how things are really done"’

Being so ridiculous trying to save some money is funny  The woman in this story should simply laugh it off and move on, honestly. There is no way in the world this is logical reasoning for anyone. Her sister is simply trying to pay less than everyone else using a random justification. If I were her, I would look at my sister in the eye and laugh.

Woman says she and her husband should pay half the price for a family trip since they count as only one household: ‘Her logic is that she and her husband should count as "one" unit since they are a married couple’

Cooking is a beautiful thing, but it shouldn’t be limited to a gender  Our parents grew up with a very different education; we can't blame them for their gendered ideas about cooking and chores. We can try to actualize them, for sure, but they are entitled to their opinions and preferences.

Woman demands her 24-year-old daughter cook for her and her boyfriend: ‘He even now asks me to make him and my mom a plate of food if my mom asks because he doesn’t want to’

I wish careers were inherited; it would make things so much easier  No training, no education, only good old heritage. I’m not even joking; it would be easier and even fun.

Woman gets promoted, and her 34-year-old sister immediately assumes she’s ‘inheriting’ the job despite having no training for it: ‘Yesterday she updated her LinkedIn to say she's starting at my company. She has not applied’

Gen Z’s strong entitlement is nothing new, but it’s time we do something about it  Let’s face it, this is partially our fault. An entire generation failed them at the most basic level:

Manager exposes Gen Z employees’ entitlement: ‘The older folks I manage, at least, know how to act right even if they might be annoyed with me deep down, and at least perform basic compassion’

Healthy families don’t view their son’s partners as intruders. They might not like them; they might think they aren’t the best for their sons, but they respect their sons' decisions  Most families are far from what’s ideal in terms of behavior; that’s why new marriages have to be really clear in enforcing their boundaries.

Man prioritizes his wife’s plans and family reacts badly: ‘My family got upset and said I'm changing since I got married. They also said my wife is slowly pulling me away from them’

I swear to God, this is somewhat normal behaviour in the ‘fitness community’. Why are they so obsessed with making everyone else follow their strict eating habits and rules?

Man Returns Home After a 12-hour Shift, And His Roommate’s Girlfriend Had Thrown Away His Food: ‘She’d thrown away my frozen pizzas, Hot Pockets, and chips because they are "literal poison," and she wanted the apartment to eat cleaner’

Sometimes you’re NTA on paper, but you kinda are in real life.  I think the man who’s telling this story is bringing an old grudge into it, and I can’t pinpoint exactly why. It’s something about how he describes the other dude’s food preferences,

‘if he wants to order off the kids' menu because he's scared of a little bone, he can pay for his own nuggets’: 25-year-old man refuses to eat regular chicken and orders extra plates on his teammate’s check

We have to accept it, sometimes, we have oddly specific things that we consider deal breakers that not only are way too niche, but are also a bit frivolous. I’m not sure if everyone has these standards or just these people on Reddit, but of course they have the right to hold them.

‘What completely superficial thing makes you not want to be friends with someone?’: Frivolous or irrational reasons that are a deal breaker for a friendship

Some people think cents are not money, and I think that’s OK  To be fair, in this story, I think the lady was just trying her luck, and I stand by that. The person writing the story is just too angry over something only mildly infuriating, or even not

Entitled customer expects cashier to cover for what she can’t afford: ‘The EL says “I’m a little short.” But in the most bizarre, matter of fact way, like as if this is fine and the dollar store’s/cashier’s responsibility to pay for it’

Were they entitled, or were they raised in a world with less individualism and more flexibility around seats in a flipping movie theater?  Yes, I’m going to play devil’s advocate

Entitled boomer couple expects man to change movie theater seats with them because they bought the wrong ones: ‘Just mind bogglingly irritating because we are in a dark theater and this is disturbing other movie goers’

Retail Manager Repeatedly Warns Entitled Karen To Stop Leaving Her Car in Their Parking Lot, She Tries To Circumvent the Rules Further, Gets Towed: ‘Fine, I’ll Just Park Over There Then'

Can entitlement be cured?  At this point, it seems like I’m looking for stories to prove my thesis about entitled people who don’t realize how entitled they are because they’ve never worked in service and don’t understand it.

A couple gets turned away by restaurant due to being understaffed. They decide to book via the web and come back a while later: ‘To us it just looked like business as normal and I personally felt like the manager was just in a sour mood’
