This man's wife got sued and his reasons for resenting her are beyond valid.

Imagine learning that the story of how you met your partner was far from the truth. This dude had been telling his friends and family that he met his then wife seven years ago and knew her as the best friend of his little brother. Little did he know, however, that his wife knew exactly who her husband was when they first met. In fact, she knew who he was over two whole years prior to that "fateful" moment. Perhaps fateful is the wrong word, as it was a highly orchestrated and calculated meet cu…

It turns out this bridezilla couldn't handle the truth.

In fairness, there's certainly no easy way to break up with someone. You can try to be as prepared and as measured as possible, but in the end, it always goes down differently than expected because at the end of the day, relationships are a two-way street. Your experience of how something is or isn't working will inevitably clash with the other person's perspective. So when you're finally readying yourself for that unfortunate conversation, it's unavoidable that someone will say something surpr…

This husband thought he was being a nice guy, but he really hurt his wife's feelings with the gift he decided to give her. The husband, u/Level-Parsley2953, was wondering if he's really a jerk for the gift he gave his wife. They're married and starting a family, with two babies on the way. The OP even got a second job to support their growing family, but this means his wife has been taking on more of the household burdens. That includes “nothing too major,” the OP writes. But the “nothing too m…

This woman knew she needed to enact a little petty revenge before getting a divorce.

This woman deserves an Oscar for how petty she is.

One thing's for sure in this story… This guy needs to drink a glass of milk and cool off. It's important to remember that things aren't always about you ; you need to let other people in your life have their moment in the limelight, especially during times when it is literally all about them. These times include (but aren't limited to) weddings, birthdays, and funerals—any time that your job is to be there for someone else. Taking it upon yourself to claim the spotlight will only ensure that yo…

Let this story serve as a friendly reminder to never hire your in-laws to work at your company.

When asking someone to be a reference for you, you'd better be darn sure they're willing to say positive things about you. Although it can be awkward to ask, having someone who will testify to your character and work ethic is really important as you're job searching. Lots of companies won't ask for references until you're already deep into the interview process. By that point, a reference can absolutely make or break your prospects of working for that company. While I've never done so myself, q…

There's nothing like an upcoming wedding to cause family members to pass judgment.

If you change a plan, especially at the last minute, you need to take responsibility for the increased workload that you've made for everyone. This principle holds true even when you suddenly decide to cancel a catering service because you'd rather cook for 20 people yourself. If you have the ability and time and would like to take on that task, more power to you, but don't expect others to give up their time and energy to help out when they were quite happy with the original option in the firs…

Talk about a prank gone wrong!

We love a harmless but amusing prank! In this case, this Redditor decided that the best way to get back at her husband when he annoys her (and she assured her readers that these are only for minor grievances) is to pull a prank using his music playlist. Her husband uses the music Apple curates for him while he works, so whenever he upsets OP, she plays a ton of crazy music on a low volume on their shared speakers so he doesn't realize it's her. However, she plays enough of it so that it complet…

Talk about office drama!

Weddings are expensive, so planning a nuptial on a budget can make a person lose sight of appropriate ethics when it comes to money matters. Although everyone wants to make their wedding the event of their dreams, sometimes we're just not rich enough for that. One woman, a 40 something who was finally ready to walk down the aisle, recently planned an enormous wedding on a skimpy budget; then, she did the unthinkable...
