‘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 simply don't notice that someone couldn’t care less about their family member’s wedding. They only know they want to show the pictures they took, so they do it, and that’s about it. Not everyone knows how to have an interesting conversation.

Woman is taken aback when a lady starts showing her pictures of the wedding she was uninvited to: ‘All that time she was shoving the wedding photo album in my face saying "look, look at all the young people that were there!"’

I can’t believe how many romances end because of issues with housework. It seems that those differences and inconveniences end up eroding everything left of romance in the couple.  Frankly, after reading so many stories like this, I’m kinda giving up on the idea of living together with a partner altogether. Is it possible to evolve to a society t

Couple moved in together and started having too many conflicts about cleaning the dishes, leading them to actually consider breaking up: ‘Am I actually asking for too much and being unreasonable, or this as absurd as it feels to me?’

Let’s face it, some people are looking to take advantage of others to get their needs met without reciprocating.  The dynamic appears perfect to them as long as nobody dares to point it out or ask for something in return. If that happens, they’ll use any strategy to return to the statu

Some people are treating their thirties like they were their fifties; I really don’t get it. I’m not against an early night; I never was and never will be, but is it really that we’re more tired, or have we gotten more proactive in rejecting plans we never actually wanted to do in the first place? As I get older, I haven’t necessarily no

I understand people expect useful gifts at their bridal showers, but that can’t be an excuse to shake down friends for cash we know they don’t have. My point is that we shouldn’t shake anyone for gifts or cash, even if the people who are supposed to be making the gifts can afford it. A gift is always supposed t

Marrying the right person doesn’t feel like the movies told us it would feel, and that’s ok. One has to work very hard not to get caught up in the what-ifs, because they are a trap. She could’ve continued with that other relationship, for example, and maybe she would’ve wasted her time with something that felt so rom

The shift from real life to virtual life has already happened  I don’t think that, at any point in history, people have incorporated so many marketing concepts into their own lives as they do now. Marketing used to be something companies used to sell their products more effectively, to generate desire, or to project an image. With social media nowadays, people have got

Bridezilla shuts down every conversation that’s not about the newlywed during her wedding for not being “on brand”: ‘You'll have plenty of time to talk about holidays later today is about us’

Some of us fantasize about something like this happening to us so we can get revenge without planning. We have to be really intelligent to be presented with the chance and be quick enough to see it and take it. I’ve read countless stories about exes who benefited from their partners' kindness only to resent i

I can’t believe people seriously think about relationships this way. I understand you don’t want to be someone’s partner, but to be so self-centered as to ‘demote’ someone from partner to lover and expect them not to get offended is insane. I can’t say I’m surprised because this has happened to most of my friend

We’ve all been there, fantasising about our crush for months, even for years, until we finally meet them and the fantasy comes crumbling down.
