Photos From People Who Are Doing Weddings the Right Way

Ah, the wedding day. A magical time for you and your spouse, the day you’ll never forget.

No matter how hard you might try.

It is a day frequently immortalized by photographs, often very expensive ones, but some caught off-the-cuff. Of the endless supply that’s out there, though, only a few rise to the top to become internet legends that get spread far and wide to the rest of us.

Here are some of those, thanks to Imgur/Reddit.

15. Best in the world

I’d rather have a bottle in front’a me than a frontal lobotomy.

Best. Wedding. Photo. Ever.

14. You’re outta here

“At our wedding an usher had a rude girlfriend who wanted to be in the middle of pictures (dressed in white!) I got upset but my photographer said ‘I’ll fix it later don’t worry!’”

13. Potato, potato

Ironically this had to cost way more than just a normal invite.

My best friend finally mailed me an invitation to his wedding.

12. The summoning circle

Um. You good, kid?

11. What happens in Vegas

Will haunt you forever.

10. Loving gift

This reminds me of when televangelists offer terrible gifts in exchange for “love offerings” to get around taxing their stupid merchandise.

I was told this wedding invitation should be under trashy. from trashy

9. Carry me home

When they talk about the threshold, I’m not sure that’s what they mean.

Every girls dream is to be carried on her wedding night. from trashy

8. Here comes the somebody

This is like the one unforgivable sin of wedding attire, how do people keep doing this?

I mean, I’ll give ’em this, it’s a brilliant cost-saving measure.

Wasn’t expecting to see a wedding when I stopped at Wal*Mart this weekend… from trashy

Look, to each their own, but there’s something that hits me weird about hiding from would-be assassins as a form of romance.

Has anyone seen the bride? I can’t find her. from weddingshaming

5. So stinking happy

I see what you did there.

Autocorrect? from weddingshaming

4. Once again

You’re probably wondering why this is shame worthy. Well how do you feel now that you know she was ***NOT*** the bride from weddingshaming

3. MRPA?

It doesn’t quite roll off the tongue.

I’m not here to kinkshame, but maybe keep this in the bedroom. And yes, that’s motherf**king Carole Baskin.

What’s the Craziest Thing Your Ex Did After Your Divorce? Here’s What People Had to Say.

We’ve all had one. And some people have had quite a few…

I’m talking about crazy exes who go off the deep end after a breakup and make your life a living hell.

You just gotta ride it out and hope that things don’t spin off into Fatal Attraction territory, you know what I’m saying?

What’s the craziest thing an ex did after a divorce?

AskReddit users shared their stories.

1. Thief!

“My ex stole a car and did 18 months in state prison.

Based on what I was able to find online at the time, he approached a car dealership and showed interest in buying a vehicle. They allowed him to take it home for a 24 hour demo. He never returned it.

They reported it stolen after they attempted multiple times to contact him to return it. They then contacted the state police who put a BOLO out. They found him driving the vehicle on the other side of the state where he thought he wouldn’t be found.

I found out when I got an unexpected phone call from the sheriff’s office. I asked why they were calling me about this. They said my ex I told them I would vouch for him as a “character witness”.

I told the officer over the phone that my ex was a lying sack of s**t and shouldn’t be trusted. The officer laughed, thanked me for my time and hung up.”

2. A real jerk.

“Completely ignored our three children for the last ten years while living with a woman and her three children.

Did I mention, our oldest is HIS from a previous relationship, who I was awarded custody of, and he is her only living biological parent?!”

3. That’s weird.

“My favorite was his sister sent a Facebook message to all of his contacts the day of our separation (including my family).

Before we announced anything, her message stated everyone should immediately delete me and if I said anything about why we separated I was lying and not to listen.

Basically this created a lot of curious questions and a lot of laughs.”

4. Ouch.

“My ex-wife told me I could leave my stuff in our house while I found somewhere else to stay.

I assumed this was a good-will effort to keep things as amicable as possible between us. When I went to get my stuff she had burned all of it.

So that was rough.”

5. Dangerous.

“She removed the retaining clips for my windshield wipers, but put the wipers back on the arms.

First storm after I got my car back from her, driver side wiper flew off the car on Interstate 40.

Good times.”

6. Oh, boy…

“She called my company, talked her way up the chain to the president of the company (still don’t know how she managed that, but she’s smart) and told him I was suicidal and had threatened to “do something drastic” at work…

Later I learned that she thought this would be a roundabout way of getting my address which I didn’t share with her after I moved out because she’s bats**t crazy.”

7. Petty.

“When I told my ex-husband I wanted a divorce, the next day after I went to work he packed our entire house into a uHaul and put it in storage. Even with a court order he refused to give my stuff back. I left my marriage with the clothes on my back.

Years later he decided he was above the courts because he got away with that and took our son across country telling me he was moving with one day notice and told me I couldn’t do anything about it. Of course I promptly hired a lawyer and we went back to court and he lost joint custody but it took a year of fighting, chasing him down, and not seeing my son.

There are more stories but those are probably the worst.”

8. Horrible.

“Ki**ed or Euthanize our dog, then lied about that he d**d of natural causes.

Given the dog was old and blind, but she pleaded that she wanted a weekend with him, and then the next night sent me a fake text that he passed away during the night at like 3 am because he coughed and then just stopped breathing.

That s**t wasn’t true, I found out later after finding and calling the vet she brought him to, that she bad mouthed me about and that he was suffering and needed to be put to sleep because he was in agony and I was supposedly letting him suffer.

She had him out to sleep like the day she took him home, like 3 hours afterwards. Never got to say goodbye due to that b**ch.”

9. Jeez.

“Called me and pretended he had been hit by a car while we were talking.

He even tried to voice the crowd that had gathered around his “body.” God-awful acting, but pretty funny listening to him try to mimic a woman’s voice. Points for trying to be inclusive, I guess.

I think he was trying to get me to re-live my trauma of being on the phone with a friend who actually HAD been hit by a car while we were talking. Too bad he didn’t realize that hearing the real thing is worlds different than hearing a dumb**s try to act it out.”

10. Put it in writing.

“After he realized I was never going back, he told his mom that I had been stealing from the family the whole time we were together.

Then he literally put it in writing that I had a key to his parents’ home and would sneak in and take his dad’s guns and his grandmother’s jewelry, and that he had been powerless to stop me.

It was always his druggie sister. Always. Anyone with eyes could see it, but no one in the family wanted to believe it.”

11. That’s weird.

“My ex husband started dating his step mom who has been in his life since he was 11 years old.

His step mom and him are still together almost 5 years later. His step mom confessed her love of my ex to his dad a few years ago and they have since divorced. The dad is now dating a 21 year old.

I know all of this because I’m still close friends with my ex husbands sister.

It’s so messed up and I’m so grateful I left him when I did.”

12. Wow.

“Kidnapped the kids during their weekend visit and moved to a small town in the next state over. It took me 2 years to get them back.

She eventually burned all her bridges in the town she moved to and went home to her parents house. Since her parents were not pleased with her choices and were on my side during the whole deal they called me to let me know where she was. I went and got them.

This was over 20 years ago and they have both grown up just fine. I’ve since remarried and my 2nd wife has been a wonderful mother to them.

It took a lot of work to fix all the damage but it’s mostly ok. The biggest scars that lasted was that my son has a distrust of women with authority (that he has worked really hard to get over) and my daughter was afraid to start her own family because she worries she would turn out just like her mom.

She finally got over that and is expecting our first grand baby this fall.”

Did you ever have an ex go bananas on you?

Weirdly Gross Things That Couples Do For Each Other

When people discuss intimacy in a relationship, they’re usually referring to the steamy, sensual stuff. Which is weird, because the truth is, most of the intimacy that comes along with getting close to someone isn’t hot at all. A lot of it is just plain gross.

Because getting close to someone – warts and all – involves stuff like, yanno, warts. And oddly, you begin not to mind. Because that’s love. That’s real love. That’s the kind of intimacy nobody’s searching for, but that they all find eventually.

And then you take to the internet to tell strangers about it anonymously.

Warning: if you’re queasy, some of this is genuinely gag-worthy.

This Guy Made His Wife Choose Between Him and Her Best Friend. Is He a Jerk?

If you’re in a relationship, you know that there are certain people who can make your life…challenging.

And a man found himself in a complicated situation when he demanded that his own wife choose between him and her best friend.

Talk about picking a side, huh?

Read on to see what happened.

AITA For making my wife choose between me and her best friend?

“I (M 36) am preparing for my upcoming surgery at the end of May.

I have respiratory condition that I have been suffering from and my wife has been very supportive and accommodating of all my needs. She has endured so much by shouldering this burden with me and I can never describe how much supportive she’s been with everything that has been going on with me.

The problem is that her best friend’s wedding is at the end of may, specifically on the 27th and my surgery takes place the exact same date. Now 27th was not the original date of her friend’s wedding it was supposed to be on may 18th but got changed. Her friend informed us about it on short notice. And my wife wanted to go but it’s a 8_hour trip since the wedding will be held in the groom’s hometown.

My wife and I discussed this, and I bluntly told her I needed her there for my surgery. She told me that that’s her best friend and this will hopefully be her only wedding and she wanted to attend.

She asked if I could get a friend as my support but I just didn’t think this was right I was even puzzled that she asked me to get a substitute while she goes to her friend’s wedding. I asked if her friend’s wedding was more important than my health.

She argued that there was nothing wrong with it and I won’t need her since the medical team will take care of me. Then She said that by refusing I was making her choose betwen me and her best friend. We went back n’ forth on this argument and she insisted she wants to attend her friend’s wedding.

I told her she was being unreasonable and I never expected her to prioritize a wedding over my health. She loudly yelled “what do you want me to do?, I might lose my friend over this” then stopped talking to me.

I think I handled this badly and acted in ungrateful manner but I think she’s the one who doesn’t understand the difference since my surgery is an emergency and if her best friend is a good friend then she’d understand, right?.

So am I wrong for what I said?”

Now it’s time to take a look at what Reddit users think of this story.

This reader said that the wife needs to be there for him during his surgery. No questions asked.

Another reader said not only would she not be there, but she’d also be really far away.

Unacceptable!

Photo Credit: Reddit

This individual posed a good question: how would the wife even be able to enjoy herself if she knew her husband was going through that kind of surgery?

Photo Credit: Reddit

Finally, this person had a different take and said that the wife has been through a lot and that no one is an a**hole in this situation.

Now we want to hear from you.

Is This Woman Wrong for Not Giving Her Late Wife’s Ring Back to Her Family? Here’s What People Said.

I think that I’d be pretty eager to honor a friend or family member’s wishes after they passed away…even if it meant there would be some conflict…

And that’s exactly the situation a guy who shared his story on Reddit’s “Am I The A**hole?” page finds himself in after honoring his late wife’s wishes.

Let’s take a look to see what transpired.

AITA for refusing to return my late wife’s ring to the family”

“I (F30) married my wife (F36) a year ago.

We had been together 6 years, married for 1 before she passed away. It has been a really rocky time for me and I am still struggling but getting there, day by day.

My wife had been close with her grandmother when she was growing up and when she passed away her grandmother left a beautiful ring which had been in the family for generations. My wife used this ring to propose to me and it also became my wedding ring.

I have worn it everyday since she gave it to me, and it is truly my most precious item from her. It feels like she is with me always and when I look at it, it brings my heart some happiness to remember our time together. My wife even spent money on the ring to get it restored as it had a few cosmetic faults, but by doing this it more or less doubled the value too.

It is very unique and shaped like a snake with a diamond in its head and rubies for the eyes, the diamond was cracked and the blue enamel needed repairing which she did before proposing.

My BIL has now decided to propose to his girlfriend and he wants to use the snake ring as their grandmother wanted the ring to be used as an engagement ring for when one of her grandchildren wanted to marry, a first come first serve situation, although, it was never really expected her granddaughter would be doing the proposing it was always assumed the boys would offer it to their gfs but my wife got there and did it first and that was that.

It was never really questioned either as my wife and she had been so close too. Nobody had any objections at the time as the ring was still within the family and neither of my BILs were anywhere near getting engaged.

I refused to give the ring back and now I have caused a huge rift with my family in law. My MIL and BILs are all calling me an AH as they want the ring to continue being part of their family and to be passed down in the generations as it was expected to.

I am distraught, my wife and I were not big sentimental gift givers and this is honestly the only thing she was truly proud to gift me, it was a huge deal for us and meant the world to both of us.

My family in law have also thrown in my face that the grandmother wouldn’t even have wanted me to have it since she was Russian and would very much be against a same s** couple.

This really hurts and feels like a low blow as although it’s definitely true I was accepted my my family in law. The grandmother had long been gone before I met my wife. They are now saying that it should go to the boys as she intended.

It’s all got really nasty and I just don’t know what to do. The family have even offered to buy the ring off me for the full value of the ring with the repairs but I refuse. It is the only thing I have of my wife and parting with it feels like the only piece I have left of my broken heart being taken away.

AITA?”

Wow…what a story.

Now let’s take a look at how folks on Reddit reacted.

This person said that widows aren’t expected to return their rings. Plain and simple.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another reader argued that the family is acting horribly in this situation and that the woman who wrote the post is, at the end of the day, the rightful owner of the ring whether they like it or not.

Photo Credit: Reddit

Another Reddit user said that the woman’s late wife would undoubtedly be ashamed of her family for acting this way.

Photo Credit: Reddit

And lastly, this reader said that the woman’s family is actually dishonoring their late daughter with their behavior.

I think I agree…

Photo Credit: Reddit

Do you think this guy did the right thing?

Or is he acting hard-headed?

Do you sometimes feel like maybe you’re not living a very adventurous life?

I mean, I’ve done plenty of interesting things in my time and have had the pleasure of creating things and even making money having a lot of fun with my hobbies.

But then I read stories like these, about making new discoveries about your own sexuality in the midst of fiery affairs and I think “Wow, am I boring?”

But also…I don’t want the baggage?

I think I’ll just read some accounts from these anonymous posters.

10 People Share the Worst Marriage Advice They Ever Got

It seems like when you get married, or are even thinking of getting married, people fall all over themselves to try to give you advice about it…

…especially if you didn’t ask.

And unsurprisingly, a lot of it turns out to be bad.

A ton of people chimed in after this prompt on Twitter. Let’s see what “words of wisdom” really aren’t.

10. Hard work

Isn’t this supposed to be like, an enjoyable part of my life?
Why should I expect it to be so miserable?

9. The good fight

Believe it or not there are ways to communicate that don’t involve constant quarreling.

8. Sexpectations

Believe it or not there are other things.

7. You are his

In a romantic sense, sure, in an ownership sense, nope nope nope nope nope.

6. The conversion rate

I guess it probably depends on how seriously you each take your faith.

5. Don’t get comfy

So you want me to spend the rest of my life uncomfortable?

4. You’ll always wonder

Yeah, this seems like a sad justification.

3. Happy wife, happy life

This mentality has always sort of reeked of “marriage is all about running around trying to make sure your wife isn’t angry” and painted, for me, a pretty grim picture of the idea.

2. Just kidding

Pretty absurd and insulting.

1. Hit the joint

Some couples find that keeping general finances separate saves them a lot of headaches.

So, if you want some good marriage advice, maybe just follow the opposite of all that.

What’s the worst advice you’ve ever gotten?

Breakups People Quickly Came to Regret

You’ll often hear people talk about “the one that got away.”

Which has always been a little weird to me because it makes it sound like you were romantically involved with a fish.

Is that why we also say there are other fish in the sea? Why are we so obsessed with fish romance?

But I digress. Check out this Reddit post.

Have you ever broken up with someone and regretted it later, if so why? from AskReddit

What are the real stories of the ones that got away? Let’s find out.

1. No comparison

Yeah she was my first girlfriend. Dated her for 6 years, nothing wrong in the relationship but I assumed something was wrong because she was my first.

I didn’t know what other relationships were like for comparison. So when I started dating other girls I realized I screwed up.

– YeahSorry930

2. Twists and turns

I did. I regretted. She took me back. We married.

Now we’re divorced.

Take away from that what you want, people.

– CleverDad

3. Making commitments

Yep, I broke up with my first girlfriend and regretted it.

We were both still virgins, but I didn’t want to be, while she was a devout Catholic who wanted to save herself for marriage. I respected that, but 17 year old me felt unhappy feeling like I was ‘never’ going to get to experience sex, though I still happily dated her because she was my first and I was happy enough to be able to tell my friends that I had a girlfriend.

I broke up with her, but after going through that experience and feeling how terrible it was for both of us, first heartbreak and all that, I turned around and won her back. I did it for the wrong reasons – I felt guilty for hurting her, and felt in retrospect like breaking up over sex was a shallow thing to do.

Thing is, the spark was gone after that so she broke up with me soon after anyway. It was for the best – we were incompatible in other ways that became apparent later – but hearing her say ‘I don’t love you anymore’ was perhaps the most savage emotional gut punch of my young life.

And that was how I learned that

a) sex matters, and sexual incompatibility can ruin relationships

And b) sometimes, a relationship can be broken badly enough that it can’t be fixed.

– Sanguine_1

4. The hook up

Shortly after the most crushing breakup I had, I found a girl a few years younger than me with two kids just looking for an “adult friend”. I was clear about not looking for a relationship and we started hooking up.

A couple months in I really liked this girl and asked her to make it official. She agreed and I was super into her, but awkward with the kids. She never pushed me to be more involved with them too fast and the kids and I met slowly and then more and more.

We actually broke up a few times. I would end it because it got too scary with the kids and then we would get together and then she would end it because it was feeling too serious. On and off for about two years until I got offered a massive promotion 12 hours away and took it.

We split up “for real”, which lasted about 8 months. Then by fluke I ran into her while visiting my parents and we rekindled. I didn’t even realize how much I had missed her until then. We’ve been doing long distance for about 9 months now and I’m looking for a job back in town. I’ve proposed, she accepted, and she’s constantly sending me links to dream homes we should look at. The kids and I love each other and when she works I’ve been taking the kids to school and picking them up and they both call me dad.

I think the biggest thing that kept breaking us up is that we both went into it refusing to want a real relationship and directly looking to not fall in love, and let our stubbornness and egos (which we both have plenty of) refuse to let us reevaluate or be the first to tell the other we were wrong.

– Thor0dinhound

5. Huge mistake

I dated a single mom in 2012-13.

Gorgeous, smart, funny, affectionate, liked everything I did including football and metal. Got me an engraved flask for my birthday with an inside joke written on it.

Broke things off because an ex had come back into my life. HUGE mistake.

Not only did things not work out with the ex but I burned the bridge with the other woman. She blocked me on FB and IG.

I still have the flask and it pains me to look at it

– JimmyJTJ5

6. The breaking point

Yes and no.

Yes, I regretted it because I missed (and still miss) and loved (and still love) him more than anything.

No, because it was a long time of neglect, and I couldn’t take it anymore.

– thegreekninja

7. The routine of it

Yes. We were together four years, she was the first person I wasn’t related to that said that they loved me… I was hooked. I was unhappy for a majority of the relationship, I was cheated on, she made me hate myself.

I missed the routine of it. I missed going to our places. I missed the inside jokes. I missed the friend she was. The friend that attaches to the end of the word “girlfriend”. I am thankful that when she came crawling back 2 years later, married and lonely for me, I was strong enough to say “no.”

– Worlds_Best_Coffee

8. Settle down

My college girlfriend.

She was my soulmate. She understood me, always had my back, and put up with my BS.

But being young and stupid I thought I needed to sew some wild oats before I settled down

So off I went to sew, and when I was finished, she had already settled down, with another guy.

– RonSwansonsOldMan

9. Blind obsession

Not really broken up because we weren’t dating, but at the time, she was a close friend of mine. Used to play video games with each other until late 2015, then we started to distance each other for a bit but still kept in contact.

I completely stopped talking to her around early 2017 because I was blindly obsessed with another girl who became toxic to me a year later and it took me 6 months to recover from that.

Last year, with the lockdown and all, I started reminiscing about my old friends that I have left behind and remembered her. Took me a few weeks to consider if I should message her again because of how long since we last talked, even though we never ended on a sour note.

Eventually messaged her and asked if she remembers me, she said not really (although she still had my number saved), but was still really friendly and pretty much the same person as I remembered from 2015. We still are in contact now but we are both busy with our own studies, and I think she may have slowly remembered who I was before. Planning to talk to her more and maybe meet up with her for the first time by the end of the year.

– Some-Gay-Korean

10. The abuser

I knowingly dated them while they were in a(n abusive) relationship and before i knew about the abuse, I told them it wasn’t fair for me to have them while someone else loves them, and that the abuser was the better choice.

they came back over a month later covered in bruises and told me about everything, from their partner beating them to cheating and making this person watch, and that they did not feel guilty for coming back to me because I helped them realise that they dont deserve the sh*t their ex put them through. so i got them in the end, but I still feel so awful for sending them back to that h*llhole even if i didnt know. we’re in the process now of getting the abuser to agree to either move out or let them move in with me.

11. Self-sabotage

She was a great girl. I was really sick. Got her to break up with me (hello self-sabotage).

I don’t really regret it because she’s doing well, and so am I… but still, sometimes, I do think of her… and the nostalgia hits you.

I learnt so many good habits from her, we had fantastic conversation (she was oozing brains), she taught me a lot, she was really affectionate and understanding. She tried to be there for me, but I never really let her in. She had her own issues, but overall, she was a fantastic human being, and someone you could grow old with.

I do regret that I am never going to see her, and I am not going to get an opportunity to apologize for the way I was.

Reddit, if you have something to say to someone, say it. Trust me, just do it!

12. Laugh, credit, smiled

Tough question to answer honestly.

Immaturity, mostly. Combined with my own doubts and insecurities. Then life sometimes just gets in the way of your plans when you’re young.

You sometimes don’t understand what you want or need in life. It’s for some, not until you’ve lived a little, (laughed, cried, smiled) a little, until you kind of understand who you are and what you want. Everybody has the story of the one girl who got away. Question is, did you miss out on an idealistic version of a person you knew, or did you find a person who helps you to be an ideal version of the person you would like to be?

13. Granting closure

Regretted not getting back together when she offered. We broke up on a camping trip July 5th some years ago because she was having a hard time with the long distance.

She said she’d still like to be my +1 to my mothers wedding in mid August, and I still wanted her there, so that was the next time I saw her.

On that trip she said she had had the space she wanted to think and she wanted to get back together.

I was still too hurt from the breakup to accept at the time (telling myself that if it didn’t work once it would never work).

I guess that gave her the closure to move on, and we grew apart after that. By the time I got over myself and my hurt feelings, it was already too late.

She’s still the only person I’ve ever been in love with.

14. In retrospect

Kind of.

I don’t regret breaking up with him at the time, but a few years later I wonder “Man, if I was this mature back then, that relationship could have been way healthier.”

15. A sad tune

She never gave me back my CDs.

I should have gotten them back first.

Heartbreak all around. Especially for those missing CDs.

Do You Remember Your First Impression of Your Spouse? Here’s How Married Folks Responded.

I’m not hitched, but I definitely remember my first impression of some of the girlfriends I’ve had over the years.

Some of them were really good and some…well, let’s just say it wasn’t love at first sight.

Do you remember your first impression of your spouse?

These folks on AskReddit sure do!

1. Lucky you!

“We found each other on Tinder.

I ran into him on the way to the restaurant we were supposed to meet at and the first thing I thought was “Wow, he looks so much better than his profile pics. Thank God he can’t use a camera well or else he’d probably be snatched up already.””

2. Ouch!

“”I just know this guy is going to be a GIANT pain in the *ss.”

We were coworkers.

I was right.”

3. Those eyes, though.

“She has beautiful eyes and she was so pretty (still very much so).

I was so nervous, I went to bathroom and gave myself double finger guns and said don’t screw this up.

Still married 5 years!”

4. Did you just get out of jail?

“I thought he was an ex-convict.

He’s super muscular, tattoos covering every inch of his body; all around just a very threatening looking guy. He came up to me and told me “I think you’re adorable. Can I have your number?”

I was petrified because I have never dated or attracted anyone of this type. But he charmed me. Turns out he’s a huge softy with a goofy personality.

He cracks up at the smallest things, he loves sweets like a little kid, getting tucked in at night and is scared of the dark. I love him to bits!”

5. Pleasantly surprised.

“The very first impression was pleasantly surprised.

For context, it was my first day at my first (student) job, and my boss was showing me around and introducing me to everyone by going to all office rooms, one after the other.

My now-husband was in the very last room, and I was “warned” that that team was a bit “special”, mainly because of their very direct and sometimes weird/harsh sense of humor. What surprised me was his hair color, as my now husband was the only one in this department of ~50 people with brightly colored hair.

So while I didn’t get to talk to him much that day, I remembered him for his hair color alone. It took us a few more weeks getting into contact and to eventually start dating, last weekend was our ten year anniversary (and third wedding anniversary), and he still rocks his brightly colored hair.”

6. You’re cool.

“I thought he was so cool.

We had talked online for a few days but it wasn’t until I saw him walking towards me when we met for our first date that I realized he was way out of my league.

Luckily he thought the same thing about me.”

7. A loveable dork.

“I was a bartender and he was one of the first to get a drink from me that day.

So I didn’t think much, I was still trying to screw my head on and jump into the shift. He kept coming back tho, not always to get a drink sometimes just to stand near my bar while I made drinks. His friend brought him there for his birthday, yet he spent most of his time with me.

Once I noticed him, I thought he was a lovable dork. I needed to a have a conversation with him where I could be myself and not in working mode”

8. They don’t always matter.

“I don’t remember.

I was wasted and have absolutely no recollection of meeting her at all. Her first impression of me however was that I was obnoxious and probably gay.

I guess first impressions aren’t always the most important.”

9. Man of mystery.

“”Wow, that guy is cute and quiet. He’s so mysterious!”

My husband and I met working in a bookstore.

I asked him if he ever talked, he looked me in the eye, nodded, then walked away. I was hooked!”

10. Drawn to him.

“Electric blue eyes that you can see from across the room, wicked good sense of humor, confident, so attractive, love his freckles.

I felt drawn to him like a magnet, and literally had an almost overwhelming urge to rub my face on him like a cat, which totally freaked me right out. I immediately texted my sister and asked if that had ever happened to her because I felt like such a weirdo.

She screenshotted the convo and saved it; now she sends it to me every year on that date.”

11. You better thank that guy.

“Met my wife on a blind date.

First impression was that the guy who set us up did me a total solid.

That was about 14 years ago now.”

12. Out of your league.

“When I first saw her I thought she’s hot and way out of my league.

After mutual flirting and going on a date I thought she was smart, funny, attractive, and still out of my league. Been married for five years.

Nothing has changed, I still think she’s out of my league.”
