- guy recently joined my department right out of college, with zero experience, but bold. And, most importantly, he makes up his lack of experience with zeal. He came up to me and said, “I can’t live on a regular designer’s rate, I need more.” And I gave him more work and more salary. He never makes the same mistake twice, he is a fast learner.
And there is his colleague, who has been working for us for 2 years, but how tired I am of double-checking after him! So, this second guy told me that I’m having an affair with the new guy, and that’s why I’m “promoting” him. I laughed and said that those who can’t work with their heads always accuse others of earning money with another place. © Olena / ADME - My sister was dumped by her boyfriend because she bought an expensive bicycle. With her own money. The thing is, the guy was earning a lot less than her.
Everything seemed fine, but he was offended by the fact that my sister could just spontaneously make an expensive purchase on her way home. How could she do that? Without saving on it? And it wouldn’t hurt her financial situation.
He yelled at her and left. My sister was upset, but after talking, we came to the conclusion that it’s fine. And the bike is cool. © Darknet Cryptocartographer / ADME - An old coworker of mine was at work, and someone called his house phone while he was away. His wife answered, and the voice on the other end said, “I don’t know how to tell you this, but your husband is cheating on you with me, we’re in a relationship.” And hangs up.
He comes home, she reams his butt, and starts talking about divorce. He sleeps in the garage for 2 months, then one day he’s away at work, and the phone rings at home. His wife picks up, the lady tells her, “I’m sorry about everything. I’ve broken it off with him, I had no idea you had young children. I feel disgusting. Please tell Steve not to contact me anymore.” His name is John. © PrestigiousWeakness2 / Reddit

- My boyfriend said he wouldn’t come home tonight. I decided to use this time to pamper myself and have a delicious dinner. I ordered a sushi set, set the table.
Suddenly, my boyfriend comes home. He decided I was expecting a lover. He threw a tantrum, questioning me the whole evening trying to figure out who it was. He still won’t talk to me. And all I wanted was a nice meal alone. © Ward 6 / VK - Standing in the line to the mineral spring. Everyone came with their huge bottles — I’m standing with my 1.5 liter bottle, waiting for them to fill their tanks. In front of me is a young couple. The girl is lightly dressed, freezing. Her boyfriend says:
— Go to the car, don’t stand here.
— But what about you? — the girl replies, — Will you stand alone?
I, touched by their care for each other, say:
— Don’t worry, I will stand with him!
The girl, surprised:
— Then I won’t leave all the more! © vasilisaPRO / Pikabu - Husband left on a business trip. Weekend, 8 a.m. We sleep with my daughter, suddenly a knock on the door. I look through the peephole and see my in-laws.
I put on a smile and open the door. They’re coming in. The mother-in-law stays near the threshold while the father-in-law without taking off his coat and shoes darts through the whole flat into the bedroom, where the daughter sleeps in my husband’s place.
Then he runs into the living room, then into the kitchen, looks into the bathroom and toilet, and there is no one there. I wanted to remind them about the pantry, but didn’t. Then they took off their coats and sat down at the table to drink tea, smiling as if nothing had happened.
The next morning at the same time, my husband’s brother came and check on me too, but not that brazenly, he stayed in the hall. I told my husband about it later, and he was shocked by the antics of his family. © Sunny Fluffy / ADME
- At my daughter’s wedding, her mother-in-law got really weird. She decided to show everyone how she would be bossing around her daughter-in-law. She made comments about her all the time, so the guests even felt awkward. Then she intercepted the microphone from the presenter and said that now, according to ancient tradition, the daughter-in-law should bow at her feet. My daughter is sitting crimson, her husband is also red as a tomato.
I stand up and say, “That’s it, daughter, let’s go home. I didn’t raise you to see you bowing at someone’s feet.” The mother-in-law tried to joke, I took my daughter under her arm, and we went to the exit. Her husband jumped up and went out too. The guests started to get up, the mother-in-law yelled something.
We came home and celebrated with pizza. It’s been 6 months, my daughter is happily married, the son-in-law speaks with his mother only on the phone. She doesn’t consider herself guilty and on the contrary waits for apologies from me. © Overheard / Ideer

- My ex-best friend used to steal my boyfriends, even though she has a husband. She would just come to my place, supposedly to visit me, and would work on my boyfriend. I often asked her not to do that, and she said, “You just can’t keep a man.” For about 2 years I put up with it.
About 6 months ago, I met a guy and fell in love with him. A friend asked me to come over for a visit. I didn’t refuse.
She came in a gorgeous dress. The guy, after meeting her, said he didn’t want to interfere, so he would go out for a couple of hours. She never came again. © Overheard / Ideer
