'Pilot. Every one I've known is a cheater': 20 jobs that are immediate red flags for single people

Unfortunately for some people, the reputations of their professions may or may not precede them. It is inevitable in this day and age that people will check what a potential significant other does for a living before they even swipe left or right on a dating app. Hopefully, people aren't so basic to completely judge a book by its cover, but it's not like dating apps were intended to look at folks in a nuanced way. Just like people judge pictures and other credentials like height and education,…

'He's jealous of me': Boss wife bullies her own husband at work and tells their coworkers his secrets, wonders if she's the bad guy

Working closely together with your spouse in a workplace environment presents all sorts of opportunities for possible issues and abnormal workplace relationships. There's a reason why many organizations outright forbid known couples from remaining in the same workgroup, choosing to prevent the chance of these problems altogether by moving one of them to a different part of the company. Still, the last possible scenario you'd probably expect is one of the members of the couple to create problems…

Part of this involves adopting pet names for…

'She needs CONSTANT validation': 20+ people confess the real reasons why their single friend is still single

Some people are single because of bad luck, others just got out of bad relationships. And then there are some people who have absolutely no clue that they're the problem. You would think at a certain point that these folks would consider that if everyone they go out on a date with is crazy, perhaps they are the ones who are insane. But, as we all know, self-delusion is a powerful force. Many of us don't have the confidence to tell these people in our lives that they are the primary reason for t…

A lot of things in life aren't what they seem, but at least we're terrifyingly used to disappointment, thanks to having most things oversold to us by advertising only to have the reality be somewhat lackluster in comparison. The liberal usage of old or adjusted photos on dating apps is just the same strategy that real estate agents use when they photoshop a tiny bed into a photo of a closet-sized room in order to make it bigger and justify selling a two-bedroom house as a three-bedroom. In both…

'He left me for a coworker': 20+ stories of engagements that got called off just before the wedding

No one ever said there's no more drama after you get engaged. These folks know that fact all too well. They shared their stories of how their engagements fell apart not long before their wedding ceremonies via this r/AskReddit thread, and let's just that these stories are cringe and bleak. Most people probably assume that the root cause of these breakups is adultery, and you wouldn't be entirely wrong there. Cheating comes up a lot on this list, but it's the ridiculous ways in which adultery wa…

'I didn't cook anything': Husband complains about wife's cooking smell, she maliciously complies and refuses to cook him dinner anymore

Be careful what you complain about in your household! Otherwise, you might end up having to cook your own food. When you're sharing space with someone, whether it's a family member, a partner, or a roommate you found on Craigslist, you have to divide the household tasks appropriately. Those decisions will look different for every living space, but as long as there's a well-understood compromise among all those residing in said living space, there shouldn't be very many problems. Now, if you're…

'I took my ex off my Spotify plan while she was on a road trip': Dude removes ex from streaming service mid-road trip, others share their stories

There are a lot of benefits to being in a relationship, but by far, one of the greatest is combining your streaming service logins to maximize access. Often, these logins won't even be your own, just logins that you've been grandfathered into over time through parents, friends, roommates—even exes with whom you're no longer even in contact. These login accesses are a matter of privilege, and one of the reasons why ending a relationship on good terms is a good idea in the modern dating landscape…

'Someone... was still on her account': Call center rep helps woman find her cheating husband and cancel his TV plan

This woman was confused why she got charged $49, so she phoned up a call center for help. The person on the other end of the line, u/boyinblack13x, ended up going above and beyond at their job that day: they helped their customer find this missing ex. In my own personal “sure grandma, let's get you to bed” moment, I remember a time when you could share passwords between streaming services.

Every couple is comprised of two people: The one who consistently replenishes things, providing consistent predictability in the availability of goods, and the one who refuses to replenish, instead choosing the path of disorder, unpredictability, and abject chaos. Few petty arguments grind the gears like replenishment, with this usually taking place over toilet rolls, ice cube trays, or water jugs. Try as they might to instill some sense of awareness into their partner; the replenishing partner…
