One Reddit user recently shared screenshots of their messages between themself and a potential date they met on a dating app, which shows a confusing reason the date cancelled – because the woman didn't message on the morning of confirming it was still on, despite confirming only a few days prior.

Another woman, a newlywed who moved from the United Kingdom to be with her husband in the United States, has sparked a heated debate after sharing her "honest" daily routine as a stay-at-home-wife – which includes doing a full face of makeup and her hair before her husband gets home so he "doesn't come home to a dishevelled wife."
