Sadly, on this site we often meet brides who are involved in abusive, unhealthy, or even dangerous relationships. The men threaten violence, or escalate to hitting, display irrational jealousy, or...
My sister-in-law got married yesterday at a beautiful farm in the Catskills. The food was great, the scenery was awesome, and the decorations were fabulous. It was an amazing weekend and so much fun!...
This morning, I was woken by a loud banging on my door. I look through the peephole, and there are some burly men outside. "POLICE! OPEN UP!!!!" So, uh, I did. I was worried I'd missed my federal jury...
I've noticed a fair amount of man-bashing on this site. It's usually of the, "Men have the emotional IQ of a jelly sandwich" variety. Or, men are dumb, they don't know how to do housework (or they're...

Because there are no "mean girls" or people ganging up on posters. Sigh. Rather, a poster has been coming back over and over, for over a year, each time as a different persona. But each time she's...
Saw this on Etiquette Hell today and immediately thought of WW: http://www.etiquettehell.com/?p=2389 Unbelievable! The groom's parents took over the honeymoon suite, drank their champagne, and opened...
