22-year-old boyfriend yells at girlfriend for filling her gym bottle with Dr. Pepper after he accidentally takes a sip: ‘He behaved like a 2 year old’

Most of us do not use our free will enough. We get so caught up in what we’re allowed to do that we don’t remember what we actually want to do. It’s so easy to forget that we could leave our house in a Halloween costume for no reason, and nobody could tell us not …

When you don’t have enough hours in the day, you have a couple of options. You can do everything you can to fit as much as possible in the limited waking hours that you’ve got, or you can sacrifice sleep to allow yourself more conscious time. I’m sure we all have fallen into the habit …

Woman spends entire bachelorette trip crocheting instead of joining bridal activities, demands apology from bride for asking her to limit crochet time: ‘We gave her the option to stay home’
