A Couple Turns Memorable Moments with Their Baby Into Great Comics

One of Those Days is a web comic created by married couple Yehuda and Maya Devir of Tel Aviv, Israel. They’re both artists, though its unclear if they both contribute to the actual artwork of the comic, or if it’s solely inked by Yehuda (aka “Jude”.) Either way, the comic has a long history of entertaining and inspiring through its humorous and heartwarming depictions of the tiny, meaningful moments of married life.

It has amassed quite an audience, with 5.5 million followers on Instagram, as well as lots of accolades and award nominations:

But the central theme of the comic has changed lately due to a corresponding change in their own lives: they’re now parents! And their depictions of life with their daughter Ariel are incredibly relatable to anybody with kids.

15. Pain and love

It’s a magical, messy moment.

14. A rush of affection

She’s just got a funny way of showing it.

13. Spooky times

Who doesn’t love a first Halloween?

12. Time apart

The separation anxiety is real.

I miss you already…???? If I thought giving birth was the hardest thing a woman had to go through in her life then I was wrong! Separating a woman from her baby is a million times harder. I thank every day that we have been blessed with a job we enjoy and make millions of people happy with us, but the work requires us to travel quite a bit, which means we have to leave Ariel in the hands of her loving grandmothers. Maya is a true hero the way she flies off for work every time despite the difficulty in parting from Ariel and manages to put her future ahead of her own personal struggle. She keeps saying that separating from Ariel is the hardest thing she's ever experienced, and it doesn't get easier from time to time, even though it makes sense it will. So, there is no sense in parenting… Only what the heart feels. Being a career person while raising a family is perhaps one of the most difficult challenges we would have to face in life. I don't know what we would do without both of our amazing mothers. I guess mother love to her child has no expiration date.

People Talk About the “Small, Maddening” Things Their Partners Are Doing While They’re on Lockdown

Like it or not, this unique time in history is teaching us what our family members are really like.

Yes, of course we knew them before, but there were a lot of big gaps in there, like work, school, having a social life, etc.

Now?

It’s togetherness 24/7, every day of the week, baby!

So we’re getting to know what they’re like at ALL times…because, let’s face it, there’s no escape anymore.

Twitter user Lizzie O’Leary posed this question to her followers and it kicked off a very entertaining and honest thread about the little things that are driving people crazy about their partners right now.

Let’s see what people out there had to say!

1. You’re influencing the kids in a negative way!

Like father, like son.

2. No, not at all…

Please go chew outside from now on.

3. A matter of pride.

This sounds like it’s gonna get ugly.

4. Stop breathing!

There’s nothing normal about it.

5. It’s always there…

But at least you’re owning up to your mistakes.

6. What the hell do you think you’re doing?

This ends NOW.

7. Both of these would drive me insane.

Sounds like a warzone in there.

8. Might need to get a new office.

Just a thought…for your sake…

9. Don’t get me started.

I’m very familiar with that microwave violation.

10. The WORST.

Like a disaster area.

11. He probably is.

But if you bring it up, it’s only gonna get worse.

12. That old cliché.

It’s a stereotype for a reason.

13. Do the job all the way…

Or don’t do it at all…

14. That is total insanity.

You need to have a serious talk with her.

Let’s keep our fingers crossed that these folks don’t lose their minds anytime soon…

Now we want to hear from all of you out there!

In the comments, please tell us about the annoying little things you’ve discovered about your loved ones now that you’re stuck home with them all the time.

We’re looking forward to it!

Here Are Some of the Weirdest Breakup Texts We’ve Read

Technology sure is great. It can help connect us, heal us, entertain us, and enrich us. Also you can use text messages to break up with people, which is probably exactly what Alexander Graham Bell envisioned when he started working on the whole telephone thing.

Enter @weneedtobreakup – an Instagram account dedicated to gathering hilarious relationship texts, including a bunch that, as the name implies, seem to preceded a breakup.

From the brutal to the cute to the confusing, here are some examples of exactly how you can gain an ex via SMS.

13. Pls don’t be offended

At least they’re being honest.

Hopefully we’re all treating our breakups with a little bit more dignity than this. At the very least show them the respect of sending them the bad news over Snapchat. It’s called class.

What’s the weirdest breakup you’ve ever had?

These 15 Marriage Truths Are Hard to Deny

Everyone’s marriage is different in big and small ways, but it’s also true that all marriages have some big and small things in common.

If you’re married, sometimes it can feel as if no one understands what goes on behind closed doors, and I find posts like this to be helpful in reminding me that people get it, at least a little.

Here are 15 truths that, if you’re married (or have been married) you can’t deny are true.

15. Sex will be frequent and sometimes mind-blowing. Then, for a period, it will be just fine and not as frequent. Then it will be mind-blowing again.

Do your best to roll with the punches.

14. Your spouse will freak out over things that you think are wildly irrational. Looking at those irrationalities as rational and treating them as such is critical. You don’t have to agree with them, but you do need to be compassionate. Emotional invalidation is a killer.

This one is so hard. And so important.

13. Seemingly inconsequential things — how someone arranges the eggs in the fridge, the amount of paper towels they use, if they leave the cabinet doors open, if they accidentally hog the covers at night — will be the gateway to hour-long arguments.

You will know that it’s silly, yet you will not be able to stop.

12. Without independent hobbies, shit will go sideways.

You need to spend time apart.

11. Without regular activities to do together, shit will also go sideways.

It’s a delicate balance.

10. You will go to bed angry sometimes.

You have to sleep, and some arguments aren’t over in a day (or a week).

9. You will wake up angry sometimes.

See above.

8. There will be times when your partner will say something about a past experience that will shock you and remind you that you don’t know them as well as you thought.

This can be a good thing.

7. Talking shit about other couples will be considered a great date night.

It’s a great bonding experience.

6. There’s some truth to this Ogden Nash quote, “Marriage is the bond between a person who never remembers anniversaries and another who never forgets them.” Understanding how you complement one another is crucial.

Ideally, you both bring strengths to the table.

5. Remembering the little things will solve so many issues. And marriage will make you realize that they’re not actually little things. They’re very, very big things.

The little things are so often the big things.

4. You will hear your spouse tell the same story for 4587 times throughout the course of your marriage.

Just smile and nod at the appropriate junctures.

3. You will go out with other couples and think they are weird or, frankly, the fucking worst. You will go out with couples that think the same of you.

Repeat after me: not everyone has to like you.

2. You will, at some point or another, feel like your partner and the kids have a relationship you could never have.

That is your own mess to deal with, not theirs.

1. Marriages always end poorly. The best-case scenario is that someone dies at the end.

View this post on Instagram

I’m reading The Untethered Soul (yes I said this a year ago. It’s a hard concept to grasp!) and it all boils down to this: do you choose happiness or not? Shit is going to happen to you, stress happens when you resist life’s events. Choose to find the joy. Look for it. Stay committed. Stay conscious. Stay open. No matter what happens to you. Kid skips school. Failed job. Failed marriage. Death. Don’t close. It’s not easy. Everything we’ve been taught says otherwise. We want to protect ourselves. We want to save face. But for what? It keeps us caged. Real freedom comes when we let go of ego, fear of failure and move through life with joy and a sense of adventure. We are here for such a short period of time. Really. Go full force with good intentions. Someone remind me of this tomorrow. ?❤❤ #untetheredsoul #choosejoy #butmykidisfailing #myhusbanddied #acceptlifeevents #choosehappy #whynot

Depressing food for thought…or maybe that’s just how stuff is. Right? RIGHT?!?!

I already feel less alone, and happier with the way things are!

Little Things All Married Couples Know Are the Gospel Truth

Marriage can be really tough, but if you’re in it with a person who is intent on making it work as much as you are, it can also be one of the most rewarding experiences of your life.

If you’ve been or are married, there are just some things you know are true for everyone – below are 16 of those things, and if nothing else, they’ll make you feel like we’re all kind of in this together.

16. It’s important to know what parts of your partner need to be scratched from time to time.

View this post on Instagram

When the scratches are just too good ?? (@oliviaejair)

A post shared by WOOF WOOF® (@woofwooftv) on

Maybe especially when you don’t feel like doing it.

15. Sometimes sex is tedious and boring and you’re tired and not in the mood and that’s a fact of life.

Sometimes you do it anyway, and it’s really not as bad as you thought.

14. You will absolutely recognize your marriage issues in family sitcoms which means that your marriage is not as special and unique as you probably thought it was.

Which is kind of a good thing, because that means your problems aren’t special, either.

13. If you’re not talking about sex — what makes your eyes rollback, what makes them just roll — chances are it’s not that great.

Never stop trying to be better in all aspects of your marriage.

12. At some point, you have to stop being “lovers” and start being teammates who fuck occasionally.

And idk that’s kind of my favorite point.

11. Everyone thinks about leaving. That’s just a part of staying.

It doesn’t mean you’re going to.

10. Arguing before coffee is a waste of time.

A post shared by Black Cafe (@blackcafemty) on

No one is in their right mind.

9. Having a kid bonds you, sure. You’re doing it together, and learning together. It will also lead to intense power struggles and some of the most bare-knuckled brawls you never imagined you’d have. About things like the best way to burp the baby, or what kind of cheese you should use in that seven-layer dip recipe.

It really does change everything.

8. There will come a time when your most regular texts from your spouse will be “Can you pick up X from the grocery store?”

It’s not sexy, but it’s helpful. Which is kind of sexy.

7. Every married couple should probably talk about finances way more often than they are.

I feel this all the way down to my bones.

6. Forgiveness is for people you don’t share a bed with. Forgetfulness is for people you do.

The phrase is forgive and forget for a reason.

5. Talking about your partner behind their back is a good thing. To be married is to be in need of advice.

We all need a little help from our friends.

4. But there’s certain information that your spouse will consider confidential.

You need to be keenly aware of the difference.

3. Anniversaries stop being special around year ten.

Or two, if you’re me.

2. A good marriage can survive you being honest about your kink.

Hey, it might even make it a great marriage.

1. Not everything needs to be equal. In fact, nothing ever really is.

Just try your best to make sure that it’s fair.

So, what we’re saying is, you’re not alone!

Good luck out there married friends; it can be a rough row to hoe, but the harvest is worth it (most of the time).
