Reddit might have been wrong on this one.

This husband insisted that his wife keep their house clean at all times so that he could drop in unannounced with friends and coworkers without feeling embarrassed, a position that has painted him as a villain in the internet's eyes. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit by the husband, u/Throwawaynes767 who used a throwaway account to shield their identity. The thread was posted with the title “AITA for telling my wife that it was embarrassing that the house was…

This legendary two-parter was originally posted to Reddit's r/TIFU subreddit a whopping 7 years ago. The thread has since been accepted into Reddit's unofficial Hall of Fame and stands as one of the top posts of all time. The original thread was posted by the husband, Redditor u/defenestrate_me_now, who told the tale from his point of view as it took place on that evening. This thread was posted with the title “TIFU by throwing my steak out a window” and starts on item #1 of this list. Two year…

They tried to give all of her wedding plans to her sister.

There are a few concerning dynamics to this relationship that are adding to its apparent disfunction. First of all, why the hell is this guy selling his only mode of private transportation to fund (what is essentially) a glorified party. Then he somehow sees fit to complain about the fact that he has to take public transportation? Secondly, why is his wife completely banning him from driving her vehicle? If his driving is really that bad then perhaps she has a point, otherwise, she needs to be…

It certainly takes a special type of person to be annoyed by their partner's discomfort and health pains. It's tough to imagine judging someone who you (supposedly) love so deeply for something that is entirely out of their control and acting like they are being lazy. Even worse when the thing that is causing that discomfort and pain is the fact that they are growing your child inside of them. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit by the concerned wife who is won…

People can develop obsessions over the strangest things, but how you prepare your drinking water has got to be one of the strangest of them all. This couple has an extremely complicated process for preparing their drinking water, ensuring it's just the right conditions and temperature. As this bizarre ritual has slowly devolved, the molehill of “water preparation” has grown into a volcano that is threatening to burst and tear this couple's relationship asunder.

Life often presents us with great difficulties that seek to try out every measure of wit. Checking the time on a digital clock is not one of these things. The digital clock has removed all effort and skill required to tell the time, and even that was taught at a first-grade level. Inexplicably, this guy is absolutely unwilling and unable to lift his phone in the middle of the night, press the button to turn it on, and then scan his eyes across the screen to tell the time. He would rather wake h…

"There is no tool in this pool."

She will be missed

These unions were doomed from the start.

When you've been married to or dating someone for years it's easy to get complacent and think that you know everything there is to know about them. It can be surprising then when they then throw something at you completely out of left field. It's in those moments that you're then reminded just how deep different facets of ourselves can be buried. This combined with the fact that who we are is constantly shifting, growing, and changing can hopefully keep things interesting enough in a long-term…

Maybe he shouldn't be at the wedding.

A romantic vacation for you, me... and your mother.

We're just going to come right out and say it. This one is a definite “ESH” (Everybody Sucks Here.) The husband sucks for volunteering his wife to bake his mother's cake in front of the said mother without checking with his wife first. She also sucks for her reaction, being outwardly rude and instigating further conflict by bringing his relationship with her mother into it. The guy might have been an idiot for volunteering her in the first place but, to his credit, his wife even admits that he…

Everyone has different priorities. Some people care about their hobbies, some about sport, and others still about their careers. When we join together and form relationships, these priorities can clash and cause conflict; without careful compromise, concession, and communication, these conflicts can grow and tear the relationship asunder. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A-Hole) subreddit by the wife, u/workingmomaita, who feels that her husband should be picking up any extra…
