'Selling my condo [...] to move in with my now ex gf': 20+ expensive mistakes from regretful people

Everyone has made an unfortunate money-related decision at some point in their lives. For some folks, it could be as small as buying a ridiculously overpriced sandwich. For others, it could be as big as a messy divorce. People don't always love to admit when they've spent an exorbitant amount of money on something. It's much easier to live in denial and pretend like it was all worth it. However, these brave souls decided to own up to their expensive mistakes on the Internet. Their stories were…

'I was done': Woman gets even with cheating ex, moves out and takes everything except one roll of toilet paper

This is what happens when you take advantage of your relationship. In an ideal partnership, each partner gives their fair share. Of course, not everything under the sun can be 50/50; that's unrealistic given the state of the job market. However, a good partnership requires compromise and a fair breakdown of each individual's contributions. We know that most partnerships do not function like this and that when these ground rules are never set up, oftentimes the whole partnership ends up on uneve…

'I've already filled the divorce papers': Husband wants wife to make him sushi, she divorces him, then learns to make him jealous

'I've already filed the divorce papers': Husband wants wife to make him sushi, she divorces him, then learns just to make him jealous

Apparently, revenge is a dish best served cold, raw, and wrapped in rice. This woman was taking a week-long sushi cooking class and neglected to eat what she made at the end of the day, which made some of her classmates curious. When they asked why she hadn't eaten her sushi (and probably wanted to eat some of it themselves), they were not prepared for this lady's story. The Redditor recounted how this woman never enjoyed sushi and was merely taking the course because her husband is obsessed wi…

'He woke me up from a nap': Top 20+ Petty Breakups

There are many justifiable reasons to break up with someone: lying, cheating, manipulation, etc. Much to the chagrin of some of you folks, breaking up with someone because they're a bad texter is not exactly the same thing. The same goes for being woken up from a nap or not liking that they're a Julia Roberts fan. We love the concept of having high standards in theory. Of course, settling for just anyone will only lead to disaster. However, to that end, if you spend the entire time that you're…

'My husband knows I'm on here': 20+ Reasons to Swipe Left on Dating Apps

We know all too well at this point that people put crazy things on their dating app profiles. Sometimes, they are bizarre confessions that should wait till at least a third or fourth date. Sometimes, they are strangely hostile and limiting remarks about what they're looking for on the app. And sometimes, they are such boring stock answers to questions that you wonder if this person is even real. Who knows? Maybe they are a bot. And bots, folks, are an immediate “swipe left.” In addition to bots…

'It is the worst job I ever had': Dude gets calculated revenge by giving cheating girlfriend's new boyfriend his terrible job and dingy apartment

When a relationship ends suddenly—unexpectedly, with less than honest acts contributing to that abruptness—it can be hard to move forward. The lack of closure or preparedness, with your entire life and routine being turned on its head, is jarring, and the continued cycle of argument and retribution festers into a toxic tug-of-war that embroils both parties in an endless external and mental conflict. Anyone who tells you they're entirely faultless and managed a clean break in the aforementioned…

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…

Unpacking after a trip is something you either do as soon as you get home, or three weeks later, and those are the only options. Sometimes, you get back from a trip and put the entire suitcase away ASAP so that you can chill out and unwind after the journey. Other times, you've had so much fun that you're too tired to put away your luggage, and you just ignore it for a while until you gather the strength to put your stuff away . Anyway, this person's MIL is in that first category of people. She…

Sometimes you don't know how good you have it until it's gone… and sometimes, you're stupid enough to think you're holding a winning hand when you've been dealt a 2-7 offsuit.

Sometimes you have to wonder what someone was thinking when they made a decision like this, but the reality is that they probably weren't thinking at all. We've all had a boss like this: the type who blows their top over nothing and with no warning at all. Who knows why they ended up like this, but for some reason, they have a stunted emotional regulation. Just the path in life they took, I suppose. Still, one just wonders. Wonders how it reached the point where their only gratification on this…
