Man, relationships start off so great. The initial, sweeping romance often consumes a couple when they first get together. In this stage, you feel as if you've found a perfect match, someone who is both similar and new. Someone compatible. You want to spend as much time with them as possible, and enjoy each other's boundaries melting away. But that exposes our less glamorous attributes too.
In an attempt to show the unexpected turns their love life has taken, women are confessing to the internet how husbands and boyfriends are testing their limits. So we at Bored Panda decided to put these complaints together and see if we can all somehow grow from it.
From little everyday crimes (such as eating cheese like an animal) to bigger offenses (like hitting on your partner's married niece), here are a million ways to frustrate and disappoint your partner.
By the way, I feel like we also need to include a disclaimer. This publication doesn't mean that all men are garbage and every woman is a saint. I'd say it's more of a study to see what common relationship problems women go through.
