Sometimes, being married is far less romantic than we’d like for it to be. Sure, you get to spend your life with your soulmate — but you also get to deal with their weird quirks, their mood swings, their domestic eccentricities, and their truly heinous morning breath. It’s a tradeoff, basically.
If you are well aware of the unsexy realities that come with being in a marriage or a long-term relationship, then these tweets are for you.
Wedded bliss isn’t always blissful — but it can definitely be pretty funny.

I cannot hate on cargo shorts. My husband is a walking diaper bag in those things. I’m getting him the matching vest to hold water bottles.
