Single people, kindly leave the chat — this one’s for the married folks.
Remember when you felt that ring slip down your finger and you said “I do”, and everything just sort of seemed like it was falling perfectly into place? Remember when you were positive that life was only going to get better from here, now that you and your one true love were finally married?

Yeah, how’s that going now?
Look, I’m not saying married life is *all* bad, but I think we can agree it definitely has its ups and downs.
Like, for instance, having to deal with your husband’s inability to keep track of anything he owns, as if his entire life before you was spent stumbling around key-less, pants-less, and hopeless.
Thank goodness he found you, though! Now all he has to do is ask and his belt appears, almost like magic!
Then, of course, there’s the passive-aggression.
This is a war where no one wins. Both sides are losers, and even though it would be easier to just call a truce, they’ll keep fighting and fighting until one day, there’s simply no clean clothes left to wear.
A dark, smelly day indeed.
Sometimes you have little moments where you get to sit back and enjoy the show.
Like, for instance, when your husband, who often acts like a grown child himself, has to deal with your actual children giving him the same attitude and nonsense he always seems to be giving you.
That’s when you pour yourself a cup of coffee and settle in to watch sweet, sweet justice play out right before you.
And then there are times where you just have to shake your head because no one told you (married) life was going to be this way.
Who knew your husband would have such a superiority complex when it came to completing household chores?
Congratulations on doing one of the hundreds of things I do every single day. You’ll have to wait a little bit for your trophy, though. Hope this certificate of appreciation will suffice for now.
