25-year-old woman walks out when her boyfriend proposes on the day of her law school graduation: ‘I felt like he hijacked a day that was meant to celebrate my success’
Everyone knows you shouldn’t propose on your partner’s big day. You are a bad guy if you propose to your girlfriend at your brother’s wedding.

Fast food can be endlessly comforting. We know it’s not really nutritionally sound, but we don’t always care. Sometimes it’s about convenience, and that quick, cheap hit of salt, fat, and deliciousness on your tongue. When you’re craving it, nothing else will do.

UPDATE: Unemployed 39-year-old wife orders $1176 worth of takeout in a month, her working husband cuts her off from their finances: ‘I told her she could eat any of the food we have in our fridge’
There are few good reasons to order food delivery multiple times daily for over a week. If you are deathly ill and cannot leave your room lest you might infect the rest of your household, that’s one thing. But even if you’re sick, I don’t think a cold Popeyes sandwich will do you much good. …

Bitter ex-boyfriend buys $200 worth of Nutella to get back at hypercritical ex-girlfriend: ‘I knew it would REALLY bother her’
When you’re going through a breakup, your brain isn’t quite right. Your mind will play tricks on you and exploit your weakness. You will send texts you will regret.

I remember I teased my friend in middle school for being in a Play-Doh commercial, but I was probably …
