Reddit Stories That Make Us Crash Out | Reading Reddit Stories

21:12Ian Hecox:You're 23. Just quietly end the relationship. You don't even need to cite this as the reason. He and his mama will gaslight you anyway. Just say you don't feel the same and are ending it. Don't say more. Someone said, I would be upset too. It's okay that he gets his mother a present more expensive than yours, but buying the thing you wanted so much for his mom and letting her wear it at your birthday, that's either stupid or really mean. Yeah, I mean, okay. The previous commenter, like, guys, it's not like, you can't just go, like, it sounds like he's like, just flee the country and start over.

21:46You're 23. Like, I so desperately want OP to just ask why.

21:53Ian Hecox:Yeah. Like, that's all I want. Because, yeah, OP is not crazy. They were talking about this dress constantly for months. like yeah there's no mistake here you the boyfriend knows but for like the Redditor and it's classic Reddit being like oh this person looked at you funny break up with them it's like I don't think I don't think it's necessarily breakup material but it's definitely like uh hey what the fuck yeah like we can't just ignore this we need to talk about it 100 % and see how he reacts yeah that's that's fair that's I agree with that but three years is like and she is 23 and like I have said this before that when you're in your early 20s like if enough red flags happen I'm like hey like it's okay like there's no stakes involved as far as like you're not married you don't have kids like you have so much life ahead of you like and I think that mindset should be the case no matter what your age or situation is depending on what's going on but I agree that I think like she's confused she should talk to him and gauge how he reacts and how he respects her in his response on what she should do.

23:07That was an interesting take that one Redditor had was like maybe he just thought you had really good taste and then used that. I feel like that's an interesting take that I didn't consider. I mean like was it still right? Because if she was like I love that dress I would really like that dress then I don't know maybe that doesn't.

23:28Ian Hecox:I guess it's a red flag to me because it's so, for me with a relationship, it's like you communicate these things, right? It's like, oh, you love this, right? So I'm like, I would probably let you know if I'm like, oh, you love that. Could I buy that for someone else? Just say that. Because it probably, this all could have been averted if he goes, this dress is so awesome. My mom, like, I was going to get her a gift soon and like, this dress would be great for her. And let's not forget the favorite color part, which means it sounds like that there was other colors at the store when they were looking at it.

24:02And she's like, and it's perfect. It's in my favorite color. And it was the same color. I have theories on why this happened, but I need to know.

24:11Ian Hecox:Yeah. Well, we might find out because we have an update.

24:18Ian Hecox:It's not a huge update, but it's an update. We can't overreact. It's been Zen. Okay. I finally got the nerve to straight up ask him about everything and his response was he thought I had to be humbled a bit because I got way too overly excited about something, as trivial as a dress. Oh, oh. Kick him to the curb. Oh. He thought it would be fun to see my reaction to it all. Fun. Sorry. Where's Ed? Where's Ed? It's okay. Everything's fine. His mother had no idea about any of this and just thought her son was giving her a gift. I am so upset and hurt that I just called my mom to come get me and will be staying with her for a few days while I figure out the next steps, but I am not going back to him.

25:01Oh, my God. Wow. Mom, can you come pick me up? My boyfriend's a nightmare.

25:07Ian Hecox:So the boyfriend doesn't want to buy the dress as a gift, but he will spend$200 to humble her. Disgusting. Oh, wow. That would not have been one of my guesses. Was that one of your... No, I thought that the mom maybe saw him shopping for it And she was like, I'm more important than your girlfriend. Buy it from me. Like, you know, the classic mom who hates. Like a mama's boy situation, yeah. Like a boy mom, yeah. But yeah, no, that's not bad. It's way worse. That's way worse. That's wild. Like, I mean, I just would never, like, assume, like, evil intent. And that's getting there. We're seeing it a lot with stories these past few years.

25:45Ian Hecox:And I think it's just, like, online rhetoric with, like, dudes with how they treat, like, women. It's just like, well, you need to be humbled. Like, oh, you're being, you want too much. Oh, you care about a dress? Like, I don't know. God forbid a woman wants a dress! I know. God forbid. God forbid a woman wants a dress! Because she's way too overly excited about something as trivial as a dress. Overly excited? I am so sorry. I'm so sorry. So he's deciding what she should be excited about. Cool. You know what? You know what? Can I say? I'm sorry, guys. I'm sorry. Hell yeah. You know what? You know what upsets me about this is because I'm someone, I struggle sometimes with like buying people gifts, right?

26:25Ian Hecox:Because it's not always easy. It's like, what do you get people, right? And sometimes you get a perfect like serve up where you get to hear that someone goes, oh my God, this thing, I want this thing. And you're like, fuck yeah. Like now I know that you want this thing. And like that happens, I feel like it happens all the time around the office where like I don't know what to get someone's, but then you'll hear something in passing or they'll mention something. It's like, sweet, awesome. And he had that a month before her birthday. He slam dunk and he does this. I'm like, do you want to break up?

27:00Just break up. Like, oh my God, man. He tried to like humble her, but he wound up humbling himself. Yeah, losing her entirely.

27:09Ian Hecox:He's going to probably humble himself out of many relationships unless he changes this behavior. That is not someone who cares about you at all in any sense if they do that. No. No, and I'm so glad she immediately, both of these people have reacted very properly in walking away. Truly. Some people hate joy. All right, our next story. The title is a good one. Okay. Wow. Okay, so you're just gonna hold it over our heads like that. You're a little too excited about this story, buddy. Hey, hey, hey, Zen, Zen, Zen. I'm sorry. Am I overreacting? She shit with me in the shower. Oh, okay. I'm going to need some more details.

27:53Ian Hecox:I actually think this... I'm trying to gauge what exactly is happening here. I think some people can be... Wait, did she shit in the... Okay. No, no, no. I'm like, there's many versions of this. I want to... Because I want to... Okay. Yeah. This is so interesting because it could mean so many things. Hello, long-time lurker, first-time poster. Throw away because I don't want this affiliated with my main. I, a 22-year-old woman, have been dating this girl, a 21-year-old woman, for about three months and it's been great. The only red flag I've seen before this was she was a bit messy, leaving things without putting them away, including trash.

28:30Ian Hecox:Anyway, yesterday... Sorry. I'm so sorry. I'm just like, I know what's coming. I feel like I know what's coming. Anyway, yesterday we went to a karaoke club, got super wasted, and she spilled her drink all over us. No big deal. We went to my apartment. We were in the shower. Nothing sexy or anything. We were too drunk for that. But I remember looking down and there was a streak on the bottom of the shower and I asked her what it was. I shit you not, she said, oopsie, I did a poopsie. Yes. Yes. And pushed a ball of shit into the drain with her tongue. No! That is wife material right there. No! No, she didn't even poop in her head and throw it in the toilet!

29:19She didn't even poop in her head and throw it in the toilet?

29:21Ian Hecox:I didn't know what to say. I kind of just stood there. This chick really just pooped. And she waffle stomped, too. And she did. It doesn't sound like she waffle stomped. It sounded like she like diddled it. Oh, no! She booped the poop. Booped the poop. She booped the poop. God, Eric. I told myself that she was drunk and we could talk about it tomorrow, today. Fast forward to this morning. When we woke up, I could not get what I saw yesterday out of my head. I tried to keep it light and laughed about the pooping. But I tried to keep it light and laugh about the pooping, maybe try to get it into the toilet in the future.

29:59Ian Hecox:And she goes on to explain that she just feels comfortable with me and doesn't want to hide who she is anymore. No! No! No! Break up! Break up! Break up. It's over. It's over. Cinder to the dark realm. I don't want to hide who I am anymore. The trash, man. I throw trash all over the ring. I asked if she poops in the shower all the time. She does. I asked if she could refrain from doing so in my shower and she agreed. I just feel like I can't move past this and look at her the same and kind of want to break up with her. Am I overreacting? Alright. Okay. Okay, let's spin back real quick. Okay. Because what I thought this was maybe going to be is the more normal version of this.

30:46Where you're in the shower and then she's in the toilet. Where you're in the shower and someone comes in

30:49Ian Hecox:and they use the toilet, right? Which is fine. Which I think like, I feel like there's plenty of relationships out there where they go, that's normal. Yeah, sure. And then there's plenty of relationships where I feel like they go, no. But I'm like, I've said this before. My view on relationships is like, it's like those day-to-day things that are huge, right? Where it's like how you view the bathroom, how you guys share the bathroom together. Do you shut the bathroom door? Do you leave the bathroom door open? This is all. And the way they entered this arena. And she is saying, hey, this is who I am.

31:21Ian Hecox:And look, when someone tells you who they are, believe them. Even if they're, definitely when they're shitting actively while they say it. Oh my God. Like, she has to know it's not normal to poop in the shower and then waffle stomp it down the drain. Oh, wee! Like, she has to know. So then, like, for her to just, like, fling it upon her girlfriend. Don't say these words. Don't say fling! Rather than, like, you know, maybe approach it and be like, hey, babe, so, like, this is something that I like to do. Like, yeah. That's crazy. that's by the way the poop in a hand thrown in the toilet it's a joke it's something that I heard from someone and I thought it was so funny and I just love repeating it to whenever there's an opportunity there's a famous throw it in the toilet there's a very throw it there's a very famous online clip of a guy not like that's what he was doing for all his life and he didn't realize that wasn't normal it's actually so we've read a lot and this is a thing where people because it's not something people discuss in an adulthood or just even at a certain point, people have very unique bathroom habits that were probably normalized in their family growing up.

32:35Ian Hecox:Right. And then they never learned that it wasn't normal because it's not discussed. For sure. And that's fine. Everybody's got their routine. But then when another person is in the shower with you, it becomes a different thing. Yeah. I want to know, does she wash her legs? like is she the type to just do like pits and bits and hair or does she does she yeah and in what and in what bits, pits, shits yeah here's the thing and then in which what does she do first does she shit first and then wash because I feel like that would be the yeah that would we're really going into this huh so but let's let's assume we've got some people in the chat who do this let's assume I don't know if a let's just state right now the shower drain is not built for these activities.

33:24We have to have a... The toilet, let me finish my poop etiquette. The toilet is built in a sense where the material, there's things are not supposed to catch on these pipings and things because that's a lot of bacteria that could build up. The shower drain cannot handle that. It can barely handle, like, piss. Or like, it can handle piss. I don't know. You know what I'm saying? God, delete the piss part.

33:51Ian Hecox:Not my piss. It can barely handle hair. It can barely handle freaking conditioner sometimes or an exfoliant. God forbid I use an exfoliating wash. But like...

35:17Ian Hecox:see if you could save. Progressive Casualty Insurance Company and affiliates. Potential savings will vary. Not available in all states. Back to the show. So just understand, if you are a shower pooper, that's what's happening. I'm very excited. I'm very excited to look at the comments because you know we're going to have a few comments of, Plumber here, actually, actually, it's healthier. Actually, go for it. Hype scientist here, actually. I'm curious, was she just full standing or did she take a squat? I think she was standing. That's wild. It sounds uncomfortable. It sounds uncomfortable as hell.

35:53I just can't fathom. Like, maybe she had been doing that like in her shower.

35:59Ian Hecox:Probably. Like without him for a long time. You would never know. Yeah, and they've been doing it for three months. So like in three months. So that means she was not shitting in the shower. Unless they had not showered together. But I don't know. This just seems like a brand new behavior that she is revealing to her. The comments, the verdict, not overreacting. Fair. Comments, nope, she is just a nasty, disgusting person. I don't care how comfortable people are with each other. Pooping in the shower is gross, and that should never, ever happen. And that she is so cavalier about it, just too much.

36:36Ian Hecox:You can never unsee that. Someone replied to that saying, right, this is just completely unacceptable. What else has she been keeping under wraps from OP? That's a serious hygiene slash sanitary issue that can't be overlooked. Even if the girlfriend washed her feet and bleached the shower and her feet afterwards, it still wouldn't make it okay. Not to mention that OP said she's not good about picking up after herself, including trash. Chances are she is not bleaching her shower every time she poops in there. I just can't wrap my head around this not overreacting that it's common. Run, OP. Run.

37:07Ian Hecox:Someone said, by the title, I was thinking girlfriend took a shit in the toilet while she was taking a shower. I'd prefer someone to wait until I was out of the bathroom, but if they couldn't hold it, it wouldn't be a deal breaker. In the shower with me? No, just no. And then on top of that, it wasn't a drunken one-off? Gross. I couldn't get past that. OP responded, you really can't. It's been replaying in my head today. I just don't find her attractive anymore. Yeah. And she is into foot stuff. What? Oh, no. I put that toe in my mouth before. No, no, no. No! No! No, no, you did not just say that.

37:45Shane, you did not just say that. Take it back. Take it back. Take it back. You're ranking us. You didn't say that. That's not... No, look, I was going to say, I hope she's not into feet stuff. She's into foot stuff. Bro, no. No! She's into foot stuff! And we don't know if she's bleaching her feet afterwards. She's stinky. That meme of the wolf ripping the shirt. She's into foot stuff! Oh, my God. She's stinky. Dude, when your girlfriend is a waffle stomper and a foot person. Please, please, please. That's crazy. Please, I'm begging.

38:22Ian Hecox:Your girlfriend's putting a lot of boyfriends to shame right now. Yeah. Damn. Holy crap. Like, at the start of this story, I thought what it was going to be is, like, the OP, like, shit themselves in the shower on accident, and then the girlfriend in solidarity shit herself. I was like, oh baby, it's okay. And I've been like, oh, that's really disgusting but like sweet. But no. There's no redeeming this person. Sorry, your girlfriend's straight out of Resident Evil. Yeah, no, you're gonna create a monster. Yeah. That's how the T-virus formed. Oh my God. That's toxic waste. That's dangerous. You're putting it in your mouth.

39:04Ian Hecox:Put that girl on the train wreck poop cruise. Oh my God, yeah. She was the one who started it all. She started the poop cruise. She went, this is elementary shit to me. Yeah. I'm where I belong. I'm in my elementary. That was the cruise. Amazing. Yeah. There's one last comment. You cannot spend your life with somebody that shits on the floor and mashes it down the drain with their foot. I feel like this isn't a thing that even needs to be verbalized. Oh, my God. Yeah, man. That is a open and shut case. That might be one of the wildest stories I think we've... It's been a minute since we've had, like, just egregious, like...

39:42Ian Hecox:Like, an immediate egregious behavior like that. Wow. All right. So I guess she's, like, single now, or...? Even... Our next story. Am I overreacting at how my boyfriend talks to his roommate? Hmm. I think it's a really good, like... That's such a good litmus test of your, when you're dating someone or even just a friend. Like how they treat other people is not something that should go unignored. But it's something that I think people ignore all the time. Yeah. Especially servers. Servers. If you see somebody like never say thank you to like a waiter or something, you're like, ooh. Yeah, it's a huge red flag.

40:23Ian Hecox:And then beyond that, even if they're nice to waiters and stuff, it's like how they treat your friends, how they treat their friends. Like that matters just as much as how they treat you. Yeah. I feel kind of weird about this. My boyfriend, who's 26, lives with his 31-year-old roommate, 31-year-old man, and has been since January of this year. It's the roommate's house. He just rents a room out to my boyfriend. I remember right when he moved in, my boyfriend didn't like that his roommate washed his dishes and went into his bathroom to get his trash. My boyfriend can be lazy, but he also works a lot, so I told him his roommate was probably just helping him out.

40:59Ian Hecox:Here's some text messages between OP's boyfriend and his roommate. So OP's boyfriend says, Hey, so I don't want any issues, but can you not touch my things without my permission, please? Roommate responds, Your things? Like my dishes and stuff. Oh, okay, yeah, I won't touch your things. I was just trying to help, that's all. I apologize. OP's boyfriend says, Like going into my bathroom and getting my trash. Roommate responds, I just try to collect all the trash before the garbage pickup, but I'll stay out of your things. I'm sorry. I don't go through your personal things. I just get the trash.

41:34Ian Hecox:Fast forward to now where my boyfriend is working 12-hour shifts and now all of a sudden he wants help. I told him he was out of line talking to him like that but he said it's just because he's blunt and doesn't beat around the bush. But still, there's a way to get your point across and you should be asking a hell of a lot nicer if you want someone to wash your dishes. Okay, so now I guess the boyfriend has flipped and now wants him to wash his dishes and do his shit. Got you. So OP's boyfriend texts his roommate saying, so when I work 12-hour shifts, I really don't want to come home to a pile of dishes in the sink.

42:06Uh-uh, uh-uh, uh-uh.

42:08Ian Hecox:The roommate says, what do you mean? I mean, if the dishes sit in the sink for two days, you can wash them. I wash mine. Then you can wash mine? Not trying to start shit, but I'm tired as hell when I get off and to see the dishes just piss me off. You're at home all day. You told me not to touch your things. I'm so confused right now. Boyfriend says, is it not common sense if I haven't washed the dishes in two days that something is wrong? The roommate says, yeah, I guess so. Don't be mad, please. I will wash them now. Oh my God. And then later he says, they are cleaned, smiley face. I will keep them clean for you until you tell me to stop.

42:53Ian Hecox:I'm sorry. I should have been doing it anyways. I just didn't want to overstep. What? In the way? This is like a conversation that I feel like somebody would have with an AI and not a real human being. Yeah. Yeah, this sounds like Jarvis. Well, he's talking to this person like it's his wife. Not even. Like someone who treats their wife like shit. Like a wife who should divorce him. A bad situation. situation. Like going like, I don't want to, I come home from serving and bringing family food and I'm sorry. Oh man. Oh man. You've changed this new haircut. This haircut is bringing out like an Italian man constantly where I'm like.

43:35No, I'm all for it. I had roommates, you know,

43:39Ian Hecox:for a year or so. And there was a lot of times where it's like, I got annoyed that people left their own dishes in the sink a long time. But like people would wash each other's dishes on occasion. It was like, this is like a thing. But if someone was like, hey, man, I expect you to wash my dishes. I know that even me at 23 would have been like, fuck you, dude. Like, no, that feels like a universal, like, that's not my job, bro. This, but to be asked, don't wash my dishes. Yes. Bro, you're being weird. Don't wash my dishes. But if they've been there for two days, then like, how could you not wash them?

44:14Isn't that obvious? It's common sense, bro.

44:16Ian Hecox:Okay, king of the universe. She continues on saying, he says I'm being sensitive about this because I said he needs to apologize. Am I overreacting? I don't know. It kind of has me looking at him differently. Also, is it just me or does it seem like his roommate is scared of him or something? The constant apologizing seems weird. I've met his roommate and he's really nice, just shy and keeps to himself. Oh my gosh. What the hell? This poor guy. He's probably just trying to keep the peace, you know. Keep the roommate situation positive. I feel bad for the guy because he's obviously being very overly accommodated.

44:51Yeah, and he's older than OP's boyfriend, right? Yeah, he's five years older. 31 versus 26. How can you be, I know it's not like a whole you must respect your elders thing, but for you to be talking down to this person as if it's just like, what?

45:07Ian Hecox:Yeah, and I'm like, you've got to figure out, that's your responsibility. Your dishes, that's your responsibility. I don't care how many hours you're working. And, you know, there is a human way to go about this. Yes, I can understand. Like, even if someone was trying to do me a solid and going into my bathroom and getting my trash, I probably would be the same of like, hey, my bathroom is my space. Right. I appreciate it, but I got it. But it's like so sweet that this person does it. But then it's like, oh, now I'm working 12-hour days. I'd be like, hey, I'm so sorry I'm doing this to you, but I actually like really appreciate that you were doing that, especially now that I'm working really hard.

45:44so the boundary I set before is no longer there. Do whatever you feel.

45:49Ian Hecox:That's entirely fair. And all the actions that happened could be fine if it came from a respectful place. He is one of the most entitled people I've ever seen. Well, to me, it sounds like he's too insecure to say, and it feels like he's losing, and losing the ground that he took by saying, I'm sorry, never mind. He's going, no. Like, he has, it's like, it just gives insecurity to me. This is this guy's house. He's renting a room out of this guy's house. Right. And then making all these demands from this guy. Yeah. I just, this boyfriend is very lucky that people have allowed him to treat them this way.

46:31Yeah. Because this roommate owns this house, that he's renting this room to this guy, and also doing things for him. Like, that's, like, what? I kind of feel like it's not even, it has nothing to do with the dishes or the trash. Like, not to get, like, you know, unqualified psychologist on this, but, like, it sounds like he doesn't have much control over whatever else is going on in his life. And he's, like, taking it out on somebody else, being like, actually, you need to do it this way. You need to do it this way, because it sounds like, you know, maybe he, he doesn't sound like a happy person.

47:08No, he sounds awful.

47:09Ian Hecox:He does not sound like a happy person. OP needs to run. That is so disrespectful. Like, to treat someone that horribly. And at that familiarity, imagine, you know. I'm just like, he's going to do that to you. Yeah. You have to assume he's going to do that to you. Unless you talk to him and he has a come to Jesus moment. He's like, oh, you're right. I'm being a horrible asshole. Which he hasn't done yet. We know that that's not going to happen. Yeah, she tried. And he's clearly not. She tried? She said he needs to apologize. Oh, okay. And he said, no, you're being sensitive. He says she's being sensitive.

47:45Ian Hecox:Oh. Yeah. No, run. The verdict not overreacting. Comments, if your boyfriend was my roommate, the first thing I would have told him is I don't give a fuck if he's working 60 hours a week. He's a big boy and needs to wash his own dishes. And on that note, I do not appreciate him leaving his dirty dishes in my sink for two days. If I stay home all day and do absolutely nothing, as the owner of this place, that is my right. In the future, if he wishes to continue renting my room, he needs to make sure his trash and dirty dishes are out of common areas within 24 hours or I will be speaking with him.

48:17Ian Hecox:What a fucking tool. I wonder if anyone has ever set him straight before. It doesn't sound like it. OP responds, crazy thing is that the roommate doesn't sit at home all day doing nothing. He just works from home. This whole situation just made me feel gross and look at him differently. Yeah. Someone said, not overreacting, poor roommate needs a spine because that's his mother effing house and your boyfriend is being a complete asshole to him. Who the fuck does he think he's talking to? Man better be glad he caught his roommate because most people would absolutely not bend to this BS. I'd shut that down so fast and he'd do his own dishes or get the fuck out of my house.

48:51Ian Hecox:Your boyfriend is 100 % a bully and quite frankly, an indecisive, moody, entitled little shit. You seem lovely and I hope he doesn't treat you this way. OP responded saying, he does not treat me like this, but now I'm kind of giving him the side eye. I don't see or speak to his roommate much when I go over, but he's very soft-spoken and from what I can see, clearly doesn't like confrontation. Lastly, someone said it's not his house. He is telling the owner of the house to do the dishes he used and is justifying being a slob, leaving the dishes he used because he is tired from work. After he went off on the owner of the house for keeping the place clean, your boyfriend is an ignorant man-child.

49:28Ian Hecox:And if I was the owner of the house, I'd tell him he has 30 days notice to vacate. Your boyfriend needs to grow up and learn respect and manners, regardless of his shift length. Mm-hmm. Yeah. That type of behavior, if I saw it from my friends, I'd have to be like, you cannot talk to someone that way. Yeah. And for them to be like, ah, it's fine. You're overreacting. Who are you? Like, you're being, you have, like, just know, just know. There's no, and I, if I was in OP's shoes, I would go so far as to, like, talk to the roommate. I'd be like, hey, I'm probably not going to stick around with this guy and I just want you to know that you do not need to get talked to that way and, like, I wouldn't be mad at you if you kicked him out or whatever.

50:11Ian Hecox:Because to not apologize, to not be like, you're right, sorry, I was working 12 hours, I was exhausted, I've been bad, like, all these things. If he could remedy it by apologizing and being like, I'm wrong. But he's not doing that. Right. And it's like, all right, man, you've sealed your fate. Yeah. Wow. I feel like those people, they need, like, a real big, like, wake up. Ego check, yeah. Like a wake-up call. So, I mean, maybe this will be it. You know, the girlfriend will break up with him. He'll get kicked out of this house. Yeah. Maybe he'll change. Hopefully. Yeah, because it's not like that behavior is going to just, like, fade away.

50:43Like, he lives there. She's going to keep seeing that. Yeah. Well, and he's been, like, positively reinforced by being this way. He's still getting the things that he wants. Right. So I feel like that's a reinforcement of his behavior. It's true.

51:00Ian Hecox:Our behavior gets reinforced too. I mean, you get away with shit and people who get away with shit keep doing it because they keep getting away with it. It's ugly. It's really ugly. I mean, look, I've said it many times that I think the ultimate punishment for people like this is unless people confront them and they take it in, what always ends up happening, I feel like, for these types of people like this guy is they find themselves later in life with absolutely nobody close to them. And they'll never understand why. They'll have people they control for brief periods of time, but they're never going to have a real, genuine connection with people because they push everyone away.

51:37And hopefully that changes, and hopefully that doesn't happen. But that is the path. The current path.

51:44Ian Hecox:Yeah. The current quest line you want. Call it karma, but I mean, it's also just like the consequences and the reality of the situation. Yeah, people don't want to deal with that shit. Yeah. They don't have to. Yeah, and if you're the 31-year-old roommate, you are a kind, beautiful soul. Yeah, dude. I hope that 31-year-old roommate listens to this show because, dude, do not tolerate that. No, you're a very nice person. And yeah, if I was the roommate, I'd also be like, stay out of my bathroom, but thanks for doing my dishes. You're so nice. I will definitely take out the trash market or something.

52:13Yeah. You're so nice. Let us know if you need a new roommate. Courtney's ready to move in. Yeah. All right. This guy's so nice. Shame.

52:22Ian Hecox:Wow. He seems really cool. All right. Our next story comes from the subreddit relationships. And it's an older one. A nine-year-old story. Classic. Yeah. I, a 24-year-old woman, was just uninvited from a wedding that had already started. Am I overreacting? So she was kicked out of a wedding. I was just uninvited from a wedding that had already started. Okay. That is being kicked out of the wedding. Yeah, okay. Today, my partner, who's a 24-year-old man, let's call him Eric, and I, 24-year-old woman, were invited to the wedding of one of his oldest friends from school. We received our save the date months ago, and the invite was addressed to Eric and Vicky.

53:09Ian Hecox:Our invite stated we were invited for the whole shebang, the service, the breakfast, and the evening reception. Our RSVP required both of our dietary requirements for the breakfast, which we replied to ages ago. I thought this was pretty awesome and generous of the bride and groom. and as I had never met either of them and Eric was only close with the bride, so it was a very nice gesture. The wedding is a few hours away from where we live and since neither of us drive, I booked train tickets in advance which came to about 60 pounds each return and an Airbnb which worked out at 90 pounds between us.

53:42Ian Hecox:We don't earn a lot, so this is quite a big spend to justify. However, since they had invited us to the whole wedding, we thought it would be rude not to go. The bride also specified colors we should wear, so I bought a new outfit since I didn't have anything formal that would be suitable. Not the end of the world, but with Christmas coming up, it was a bit difficult, and I had to be really frugal all through November to make it work. Total spend was probably double what I would spend monthly on fun stuff, like going out for dinner or drinks or new clothes. We got to the service, and it was beautiful.

54:12Ian Hecox:The bride looked lovely, and it was very emotional. I get nervous at weddings, couldn't say why, and so I hadn't eaten beforehand, figuring the four-course breakfast would fill me up nicely. After the ceremony, we went straight into the venue to have drinks and sit down at tables. We were towards the back of the line into the venue, and so half the congregation had already sat down. We glanced at the seating plan, saw Eric's name, and headed over. There was no place setting for me. Eric found his name, but there weren't any free seats at the table. Eric sat down, and I asked an usher whether there was a mistake.

54:46Ian Hecox:He didn't know, so he waved over the bride. She and I had never met before, but she seemed friendly. until she opened her mouth. Oh no, you're not part of the breakfast. The invitation was just for the reception and service. You're welcome to come back later. This was in front of most of the guests who had already sat down in a big venue, probably 140-ish seats. The usher suggested I go to the pub. Eric didn't know what to do, but didn't want to cause a scene. So he stayed put and stayed quiet. I quite literally have never felt so embarrassed and humiliated in my life. I left and it was raining heavily.

55:20Ian Hecox:I hadn't brought an umbrella since it was an indoor wedding. Being in a rural place, I had to walk about 20 minutes to get anywhere else. The usher had suggested a pub where the other guests are, so I just kept walking, but my shoes were literally ruined and soaked through, as well as being pretty damn cold because it's December and I was dressed for a wedding. I got to the pub to find a handful of merrymakers drinking heavily at 2 p.m. in wedding clothes, introduced myself kind of awkwardly as they were total strangers and they were luckily very nice. They invited me to sit with them and tell them about the service.

55:53Ian Hecox:All of them had only been invited to the reception. I asked one of them if I could see their invite and it was crystal clear that they were evening guests. There was no mention of the service or the breakfast nor their dietary requirements. I apparently was the only person who was invited and then uninvited to the whole do. I sat with them and had some food because I was starving but they all started leaving to get ready at about 4 p.m. Being a total stranger, I didn't think it was best to ask to come with them but I had never been to this town before and besides Eric, I didn't know anybody. Since being ejected at 1.30 p.m.-ish, I was expected to just hang until 7.30 p.m.

56:30Ian Hecox:when the reception started. So I left. I felt so unwelcome and unwanted that I just wanted to go home. The evening events will start in about half an hour without me but I just can't bring myself to attend knowing that half the guests watched me being asked to leave by the bride herself. I traded in my train ticket, which was a return for tomorrow, and now I'm traveling back alone. I texted Eric to tell him, but he didn't respond. I've been holding back tears since I was ejected six hours ago, and I feel completely torn. I don't understand what happened with the invite, whether it was a mistake or whether I was just supposed to know that it was only for Eric.

57:03Ian Hecox:Despite being addressed to both of us, despite asking for both of our dietary restrictions, despite explicitly stating we were invited to the whole wedding, Part of me feels like I should have gone to the evening reception too, but I'm soaked through. My hair and makeup look awful. My shoes are unwearable. I am barefoot on a really gross floor right now. And I'm freezing. I look like a mess and I feel so stupid. Did I mess up here? I feel like I've just been totally fucked over. And I'm really upset that Eric didn't stand up for me or say anything or leave the breakfast with me. Although I think that's less because of malice and more that he's just a bit hopeless when put on the spot.

57:38Ian Hecox:I've never heard of a wedding where you invite a plus one by name, but then they aren't invited to as much of the wedding as the other half of the couple. Nobody else at the wedding had this happen. I don't see how it can be personal since I've never met any of them before. I'm really upset and can't wrap my head around how weird today has been. If this happened to you, what would you do? Oh, that's so sad. Oh, so sad. My God. Why did you guys get such a sad story? This one sounds like a movie scene. Also, I wish that you would have just done it in a British accent the whole time. There were parts when it's like when they're talking where I thought about it, where it's like when the bride's like, oh, no, you're not part of the breakfast.

58:17Ian Hecox:The invitation was just for the reception and service. You're welcome to come back later. Trawn down to the pub. Trawn down to that pub right over there. Have a good walk over there.

59:55Ian Hecox:I'm going to get roasted. That's why I didn't do it. Also, okay, so many parts of this. Yeah. I will say I have never heard of, like, I guess it's probably, I know this is probably more normal than I realize, but, like, having multi-layers to the wedding and people being invited to, like, certain aspects of the wedding. Yeah, I mean, I get that because, like, you know, not everyone's invited to the rehearsal dinner. And, like, I think we break it up a bit more in the U.S. of, like, the rehearsal dinner the day before. A breakfast ceremony reception. Okay. It's interesting. But 140 people at the breakfast.

1:00:32Ian Hecox:So this was ceremony, then breakfast, then reception that night. So she went to the ceremony, but then was not allowed at the breakfast. That puts her in such an awkward position. Yeah. Especially because they're out in the countryside. It seems like a massive clerical error. And I'm just upset that they couldn't do something. Yeah. It's like pull in a fucking chair for her, dude. That's kind of what I'm thinking. Yeah, it's so interesting that that happened to her, and this must have been an accident, right?

1:01:04Ian Hecox:Must have been an accident. First of all... No, it feels malicious. And I feel really bad that the boyfriend didn't stay. Like, it's the breakfast, dude. I don't know the culture of what the breakfast is in this place, but I would feel, like, so bummed. No, there's... Why would he stay? Yeah, what the hell are you doing? It's raining outside. Not only that, not only the, there's the, there's the, there's the, there's the respect aspect of, of, oh, wow, you weren't invited. That sucks. This all made it seem like you were invited. And now you're telling her to her face. She by herself needs to leave.

1:01:39Ian Hecox:There's the respect aspect of why he needs to stand up. There is also the safety aspect of, yeah, walk in the rain in the countryside for 20 minutes to a pub. To a random pub, yeah. That's how Werewolf in London happened. All right. You know, I know I've been saying it for all these stories, but I'm just like, Like, that is like, that is stereotypical movie moment, like, deal breaker moment. Where it's like, he did not stand up for you. Yeah. Quite literally. Maybe the bride and groom were setting him up with a new lady, you know? I think. I'd believe anything at this point. I think my theory is that the bride has some sort of feelings about the girlfriend.

1:02:15Like, because. Must be. But she doesn't even know her. Exactly. But that doesn't matter. But they don't like the idea of her. Like, this whole friend that this bride has known this guy for a long time, what if there's a history? What if there's feelings there? What if there's just some resentment? What if there's something that caused her that where she— Because notice how when OP writes, she looked so friendly and she seemed so kind until she opened her mouth. What is that?

1:02:42Ian Hecox:I know. What is that? Well, it's because she— Yeah, it's because she just was like, oh, no, you're not part of the breakfast. I wonder how she said that. Like, what if she was just, like, waiting for this moment? I'm so nasty of, like, filling in the gaps with what I think. Obviously, it's a Reddit story. Take everything with a grain of salt. But, like, I got my conspiracies over there. Oh, no. You're not part of the breakfast. Oh, darling, you thought you could come to breakfast. Oh, darling. Oh, no, babe. It's the mother in Fleabag. Yeah. This feels like a scene from Fleabag. The stepmom, yeah.

1:03:16Ian Hecox:All right. Not overreacting, the verdict. comments, this is the tackiest thing I've ever heard. There's a chance that there was a mix-up or oversight with the invitation. But in that case, the bride should have taken you and Eric aside to apologize and see what could be done to fix it. But the way it was handled was completely unacceptable. I'm so, so sorry for you. Also, despite your boyfriend being put on the spot, it's been hours now, right? He should have leapt into action by now. Dude, if I, like, I wouldn't want to stay, Okay, despite all the respect, the safety, that's an awkward-ass situation then to just be like, all right, my partner's going to leave and I'll just sit here.

1:03:56Yeah. I'm weird when you go to the bathroom.

1:03:58Ian Hecox:I'd be like, I want to get the fuck out of here too. This is awkward as hell. Someone said, that is incredibly rude. And even worse, your boyfriend didn't leave with you. I would find his behavior to be a massive deal breaker for myself personally. Lastly, someone said, WTF, Eric? What a dumbass. He stayed and let you leave alone? Oh, my God. Eric. Eric. Eric. Eric. Eric, what are you doing over there, Eric? Leaving your life in the countryside, Eric. Eric, I'm sorry. No, fuck you, Eric. No, I'm sorry, Eric. Eric. Eric, I'm sorry. You're being an arsehole. I'm also sorry to all of our fans. For the bad accents, yeah.

1:04:42and England

1:04:43Ian Hecox:everywhere oh no sorry they're watching this just like what are you gonna do about it punch me through the screen punch me through the telly I'd like to see you try update oh yeah oh yeah I hope my conspiracy comes to light sorry okay I'm done I'm done alright so this blew up way more than I expected thank you everyone for your words of support it's really helped and I've gone from a wobbly wet mess to a cackling harpy with my big glass of wine. Hell yeah, queen. You guys don't hold back on your opinions, and I kind of love it. It's nearly bedtime here. Eric stayed at the party and presumably is still there.

1:05:25Ian Hecox:I came home and felt a lot better for knowing how shitty of a situation this was. Karma's a bitch, and when they go low, we go high. So I'm going to go to bed and sleep on it and think about next steps in the morning. A lot of people think I should dump Eric, whereas that had never crossed my mind. I was mostly pissed off with the bride and the maid of honor who may have been involved too. I don't know. Eric will be coming home sometime tomorrow and we're going to talk. I want to hear his piece because he's been drinking since lunchtime. He might just be a dum-dum rather than a full-blown asshole.

1:05:57Ian Hecox:Either way, no wind-up sudden decisions right now. I will try to come back and update as when anything else happens. Thanks, everyone. But we do not have any more updates. What? Why? That's a lie. That's a lie. A nine-year-old Reddit story? Then it must have ended there. That makes me feel like it didn't end well. No! Or maybe it went fine. No! This story is not over. Oh, Captain, my captain. We can make something up. Oh, Captain, my captain. I need this. Wait, there's an update. Oh, thank God! I almost quit. Okay. We have found a second update. Yes! Yes! See, when you stand on it, you get it.

1:06:43There is. The story's not over.

1:06:46Ian Hecox:Bailey has gone back into the archives. Yeah. And she has found the second update. The ancient texts. The ancient texts. All right. I hadn't expected the big reaction to my first post and just want to say thank you to everyone who gave advice and was supportive. I was feeling super shitty when I initially posted, and after an hour of drinking wine and reading your comments, I felt a lot more sane and calm. I wanted to clarify a few things that people were confused about or that weren't clear in my first post. I'm in the UK, and our weddings are different to the way weddings are held in the US.

1:07:17Ian Hecox:Traditionally, there is a ceremony, the wedding breakfast, which is a sit-down three-course meal. Although it's called breakfast, it is usually in the afternoon. Yummy, yummy, yummy. Followed by speeches and then an evening reception, which is like a disco. It's not uncommon for people to invite only relatives and close friends to the ceremony and breakfast, then invite lots of evening guests for the reception. However, it is uncommon to invite somebody to the ceremony and reception, but not the breakfast, as they are kind of left to entertain themselves somewhere for six hours. Having talked to friends and coworkers since last weekend, what happened to me was a serious no-no in terms of etiquette.

1:07:53Ian Hecox:Me and Eric have been together for nearly a year and a half. We live together, and we have a pretty strong relationship. He had no past romantic connections with the bride, I'll call her Marie, which some people were asking about. They went to school together from the age of 4 to 10 and remained in touch as pen pals Facebook friends since then. They rarely see each other in person, and the wedding was the first time he would see her in about two years. There was zero phone signal at the venue. We noticed this when we arrived for the ceremony and were a little annoyed as the wedding had a hashtag, which we couldn't exactly tweet about with no signal.

1:08:26Ian Hecox:This is important later. It's the most nine-year-old post. Yeah, that's true. They were using hashtags at their wedding. Hashtag Twitter. We didn't know this until we arrived at the wedding, but the maid of honor, Helen, was Eric's ex-girlfriend. There it is. Huge detail. They were together for three years, and she cheated on him and dumped him. They have a lot of bad blood and do not have any contact with each other. All right. Okay, so on to the update. I feel like the Scooby gang ripping off the mask. You're like, Helen. Helen. After leaving the ceremony, I got straight on the train and went back to my hometown.

1:09:06Ian Hecox:I was on the train when I wrote my first post. When I got home, I told my parents everything, and they weren't particularly impressed. And like most of the posters here, they were perplexed that Eric hadn't come with me. My mom gave me a big hug, ran me a bath, and poured me a glass of wine, and I just tried to relax and forget about my day from hell. I still hadn't heard from Eric, but texted him to let him know I was home safe and would see him tomorrow. Eric texted me back at about 9 p.m. asking me what I meant by home, home or the Airbnb that we had booked nearby to the venue. I clarified, and he said, okay, I'll see you tomorrow.

1:09:39Ian Hecox:Love you so much, X. No. Didn't really know what to make of it since the whole day had just been a massive fuck-up. Oh, no, I'm sorry. So I finished my wine, watched a Disney movie, and went to bed. The next morning, given... What's Disney movie? Yeah, what'd you watch? She's leaving out important details. Give it to us. I watched this brand new movie, Moana.

1:10:00Ian Hecox:The next morning, given I still hadn't really heard from Eric at all, I assumed he would be getting in at about midday, so I got up early and started wrapping Christmas presents. At 8 a.m., I heard a key in the door, and what do you know, it's Eric, still in his creased suit with red eyes and looking like death. He wasn't really making sense, so I made him have a shower and warm up, made coffee, and decided to talk once he was looking human again. We sat down together and pieced together his side of the story. Basically, once I had left, Eric was absolutely livid with Marie. He had frozen like a deer in headlights when she was asking me to go and was kicking himself that he hadn't done the right thing.

1:10:37Ian Hecox:About 10 minutes after I left, Marie turned around and said, oh, actually, a few people haven't turned up. Get Vicky to come back. We have space for her now. And Eric had tried to call me. Because there was no phone signal anywhere near the venue, he couldn't get through. And Marie pretty much immediately said, oh, well, never mind. She didn't want to be here anyway. which obviously was a pile of crap and made Eric feel rubbish. The meal was very formal, sit-down affair so he just kind of grinned and bared it assuming I would be coming back in the evening. Eric was the only person mentioned in the speeches by Marie's father who wasn't a family member and apparently it was clear to everyone how disappointed he was that I wasn't there to share it with him.

1:11:14Ian Hecox:When I texted him at about 6pm to let him know I was going home, he never received it. He was only able to text me at 9pm by hiking down the road for five minutes to find a signal. All the while, his ex, Helen, was being sickly sweet, asking where I was. Why didn't I want to come and enjoy the party? Was I shy? Apparently with quite the evil glint in her eye like she had got exactly what she'd wanted. Neither of us knew she was the maid of honor until we got there, and given their bad relationship, Eric was pretty pissed off that Marie had failed to mention she was such a prominent role in the wedding.

1:11:47Ian Hecox:Whether Helen was behind the seating error, I don't know, but if she was, then Marie was just as bad in enabling it to happen. So Eric stayed at the wedding miserably and went back to the Airbnb afterwards alone. He barely slept, feeling angry at Marie and Helen for fucking with us and at himself for not sticking up for me and left at about 4.30 a.m. to get the first train home, hence why he was back at our place so early. He wasn't really apologetic to me at all. He didn't really seem to see how it was shitty for me. He more felt like he had been insulted by the situation and let down by his oldest friend.

1:12:19Ian Hecox:He is cutting off Marie and doesn't want anything else to do with her. So, yeah, that was Eric's take on the whole thing. To be honest, I was pretty pissed that in all of this, he hasn't really considered how I felt or what it had been like for me getting thrown out of the wedding. While what he had gone through was pretty crummy, he at least had been warm, dry, and well-fed. The indignation of your girlfriend being removed from an event you're at isn't really as bad as being the girlfriend, getting soaked in the rain, feeling humiliated, and all the rest. so we talked and I laid out why I wasn't okay with what had happened and why his reaction wasn't okay he can be a bit of a lemon sometimes and this feels like one of those times a bit of a lemon a bit of a lemon I knew you were going to do that he didn't step up to the plate he just let the world wash over him and acted as a bystander I'm still hurt by his actions and he still hasn't really apologized properly I don't know if he understands that he did wrong too but this isn't a deal breaker for me it's a heavy straw on the camel's back, but the camel is still standing.

1:13:18Ian Hecox:We have a really lovely Christmas coming up and after a really long autumn of working hard, all I want is to go back to the happy place we were before this fuck up. And honestly, I don't want to think about it. So I know a lot of you guys are going to drag me over hot coals for this one, but we're still together. I'm not going to break up with him over this, but it's a big dark mark on his record. But I want to give him another chance to prove this relationship is worth it. Wow. That is so nasty. To do that, that is so freaking nasty. To someone that you had a bad relationship with or whatever, this person, the maid of honor, cheated on Eric and then dumped his ass.

1:13:56And then for some reason still wants to continue to ruin his life for fun.

1:14:00Ian Hecox:People were like that. After years of not seeing them, like, is so nasty. What I, I don't know. I'm still pissed at Eric because it's like, oh, I tried to call you and I couldn't reach you. It's like, go just run down the street. Run down the road. Wait until 9 p.m. to try that? Or like, yeah, it's never too late, dude. It's raining outside. Eric sounds like a real knob. Because here's the thing. He didn't get her message. A total numpty. No, he... He didn't get it until 9 p.m. when he walked down the hill away from the venue. Yeah, and it's like, okay, so that means that you waited. You watch your partner leave in the rain and walk down the countryside.

1:14:40Ian Hecox:Yep. And then the celebration starts, and she doesn't show up for the first hour and a half and you're like, you wait an hour and a half. Right. She's been gone all day. Dude, she could have died. Right, you never know. They hadn't talked or seen each other for like, what, at that point, six hours, eight hours? Like, bro. They're in a random town. Holy shit. She was sent to a random pub by herself. Like, it's sad to hear her say in the first post, like, oh yeah, he can kind of be hopeless in situations like that. A lemon. That's really, like, that risk is too high. Yeah, man. It's this weird behavior of being like, he was told, oh, actually, there's an open seat.

1:15:19Why didn't bro just like get up and run down the road to get her?

1:15:24Ian Hecox:I understand that there's a lot of situations where your initial reaction, you don't know what to do. He had hours upon hours upon hours. And there was also the in-between the breakfast and the party. And he didn't even try to go see her. I'm like, what are you? Come on, man. Like, I don't know. I'm trying to like there's an aspect of me trying to figure out what is going on in Eric's mind of like he froze up I do that too sometimes where he frees up you don't know what to do but at the very least now she's gonna tell him you cannot do that again like I need you to stand up for me I need you to like be there with me and if this happens again it's like then that should be the deal breaker for her because it's like I get it he's hopeless in those situations but you're not going to be safe.

1:16:14Ian Hecox:She's not going to be safe. There's so many situations where it's established he does not have her back. Right, and that's important for scary situations. It's also just important to build a strong foundation as partners is you've got to have each other's back. I think there's two things I want to address. First, it's like this, I know weddings can add a weight to situations, especially when it's like a long-time I'm a friend, the family knows you or whatever. Like that can add gravity to make him unsure how to make a decision as well. So I can understand that, but only so much. And then, did she say that he came home in his suit?

1:16:57Yeah.

1:16:58Ian Hecox:He didn't change. He went back to the Airbnb, had a hard time sleeping. Basically didn't sleep, then took the first train back home. But he never got out of his suit? Not one moment? Probably drunk as hell. Probably drunk as hell. I mean, you're drinking for like, what, 10 hours at that point? It also leaves you in this, if I'm her, I'm now in this situation too of like, what happened, man? Like, I don't know, that just, it's sketchy. It sounds like a real bellend. I wonder what this hashtag had on social media if there was any crazy photos. I don't know. But it's just, it's hard. I think it's hard to get past those types of things.

1:17:35Ian Hecox:No, that's, it just doesn't add up. And the fact, and to top it all off, he tells her his whole side of the story and at no point seems to consider that that is what I think caps it all off that's what teeters it over the edge of if he had gotten home and been like I'm so sorry I froze up I felt I didn't know what to do all day I was struggling and I felt so bad for you and you got so wrong but he gets home and goes I can't believe that happened to me it's like that should be the like alright I don't need to like figure out your side of the story here Okay, so that was nine years ago.
