I was 21yo M when my 18yo F (now wife) walked into my bedroom while I was playing videogames alone and asked me out. We have been married almost 20 years have have three kids.

This is a true story. I am clearly good with finding women and securing a wife so I'm sharing advise with the world on how to do that. Just hang out in your room by yourself and play video games. That's what I did, it worked for me. I was just chilling playing video games and a cute 18yo brunette walked right in, asked me out, and we fell head over heels in love. We are married to this day. If it worked for me it will surely work for you! Here is the story with more details. My sister decided to throw a Halloween party for her friends all of whom had recently graduated high school along with herself. We both still lived with mom and dad while working our way through college courses. On this particular day I had just returned home from a long shift at work, I didn't realize there had been a party scheduled. I knew most of the people there, I recognized them as my sisters friends. I just waved and went straight to my room to fire up the video games like a real stud. I must have made an impression on one of them. My sister had invited a younger 18yo brunette to this party that I had never met. She would have been a freshmen when I was a senior. I found out later she had been invited to be set up with one of the other boys at the party but was uninterested in him. Instead about an hour or two after I got there she just walked straight into my bedroom uninvited and started flirting with me while asking for help with her activating wifi on her laptop. At first I didn't notice the flirting at all I just tried to help with her laptop. It wasn't until I noticed that it had been intentionally placed in airplane mode that it finally dawned upon me that this girl was CLEARLY flirting with me. So I chose to pretend to struggle with the laptop and started engaging more in the conversation than the computer. We had a pleasant evening together, eventually I got around to getting her cell number and setting up a time for a formal date. I give her credit for asking me out because she was the one to walk straight into my room out of the blue with a laptop in airplane mode as the only excuse. Within two weeks I knew she was the one. My only regret is not getting the courage to ask her to marry me sooner. I wasted a whole 10 months dating her before popping the question. When you know you know, I should have just asked her sooner no reason to be afraid. What's done is done though. We have three kids and a house at this point I guess I should just let it go. That's my advice to the internet, if you want to find the perfect woman just hang out in your bedroom playing video games by yourself! That's all you have to do. Clearly I have cracked the code I'm just delivering it to you. Okay, that's probably bad advice, perhaps I just got extremely lucky. Maybe I should be somewhat grateful to my sister for picking a really bad match to bring to the party for this pretty girl. My video game skills surely had nothing to do with it. submitted by /u/ChemnitzFanBoi [link] [comments]

So my wife’s going to a gala tonight — as her client’s “date.”

I’m 44 and my wife is 44. She works on an art advisory committee, so attending galas, events, and client meetings is part of her job. She often meets clients for coffee, lunch, or dinner, and I don’t always know the details and that’s completely normal because it’s part of her work. She’s always professional, transparent about her friendships, and I trust her judgment completely. Recently, she mentioned she’s going to a gala with a friend, S. He’s a wealthy client she met about a year ago, and they became friends professionally. She introduced me to him once, and he seems like a genuinely good person. He invited her as his “date” to this gala, and my wife said it’s fine. I did ask her though, if she’s actually going as a “date,” and she just laughed and said, “Date doesn’t always mean romantic.” She said it’s important for her she could get networking and meet new people. Then she smiled and said, “If I get into this gala next time, I won’t need to take that man with me, I’ll take you...

The time I quit my job mid shift and walked out

Eight years ago I was working a customer service job that already had me burned out but one day my boss screamed at me in front of customers over something that wasn’t even my fault. Something in me just snapped. I took off my apron handed it to him and said “I’m done” Then I walked straight out the door and never looked back. Didn’t even go back for my final paycheck. It sounds impulsive but it was one of the most freeing empowering things I’ve ever done. Up until that moment I thought I had to just take it and that quitting mid shift was “unprofessional” But honestly that day taught me there’s a line between being dedicated and being disrespected. I was playing apex earlier and thought about how that single decision changed my whole mindset about self worth. It’s wild how one moment of courage can stick with you for nearly a decade. Still one of the best choices I’ve ever made.

Update- My fiance’s “vows disaster” just hit rehearsal day & it got worse

For context- my fiance accidentally sent our officiant his draft vows, the one full of placeholders like “insert emotional stuff here” and “make her cry but not ugly cry”? Yeahhh. He promised he fixed them. But he did not. At the rehearsal, the officiant asked if he wanted to do a practice run. My man confidently steps up, opens his phone & starts reading the exact same draft. He gets halfway through “insert heartfelt memory here” before realizing, mid-sentence - what’s happening. The entire wedding party is trying not to lose it. Our officiant just sighed and said, “Well, at least you’re honest.” He is now rewriting his vows under supervision like it’s a school detention. The bridesmaids made him a folder titled “FINAL FINAL vows - DO NOT SCREW UP.docx.” If the ceremony goes anything like this rehearsal, I might livestream it for educational purposes. (And yes, I posted the original chaos on r/WeddingJokes — I feel like I owe them an update at this point)
