Please, Try Not to Do These 22 Weird Relationship Things
Most couples have inside jokes and little quirks that make their relationships a little more fun and personal to them. Whether it’s pet names, joint social media accounts, or following certain traditions, everyone has them. A Redditor asked the question, “What’s some weird relationship thing that you couldn’t see yourself doing?” and the thread delivered some of the best responses to what people won’t do while in a relationship!
Joint Social Media
One user said, “Joint social media accounts.”
Another user added, “When people have social media accounts that say things like John and Mary Johnson. Just get your own!”
Social Media Posts
Another user said, “Making long Facebook posts about how much my partner means to me. I don’t know why, but I find public displays like this cringe for myself. I don’t care if other people do this, but I don’t like putting my relationships on display on social media to that level.”
Immaturity
One Redditor user simply said, “Baby talk.”
A second Redditor added, “Don’t call anyone “daddy.”
Open Door Policy
A Redditor shared, “I don’t have a desire ever to have an open-door bathroom policy in a relationship.”
Open Relationships
Another user commented, “Open relationships and polyamory. Like I understand in theory, but it isn’t something I personally could do. Especially when I hear about people who have as many partners as there are days in the week.”
Staying At Home
A Redditor shared, “Giving up a job to be a housewife.”
A second Redditor replied, “I’m not marrying someone who thinks they can force me to stay home. It will be my choice.”
TV Shows
A user commented, “Going on ANY type of TV show.”
Another user responded, “If you want to go on a tv show like Naked and Afraid. GO FOR IT. Do not ask me to go on any show.”
Religion
This user commented, “Converting to a religion to be with someone.”
Being Responsible
A Redditor shared, “I’m not sure if it’s weird or I am, but taking responsibility for my partner. For example, their emotions, their debts, or the problems they’ve created for themselves. I get caring about a person and wanting to take care of them, but to me, that’s something you do because you care, not because they’ve abdicated responsibility.”
Hygiene
This Redditor said, “Sharing a toothbrush. I could NEVER!”
Sleeping Arrangements
This user shared, “Forcing yourself to sleep in a bed with someone who needs totally different sleeping conditions than you.”
Sharing Locations
One Redditor said, “Location trackers on phones. I get some couples use it to track location for other reasons than because they’re suspicious, such as to gauge when to start dinner, make sure they’re ok if they’re running late, etc., but to me, it screams, “I don’t trust you and need to see where you are.”
Marriage Traditions
This user said, “Changing my last name.”
This Redditor commented, “If I get married, I am never, under any circumstances, doing the garter toss.”
Over-Sharing
This Redditor said, “Posting lovey-dovey-smooching photos on social media. It makes my stomach turn.”
Pet-Names
This user said, “Calling him “daddy” when not referring to him around our child.”
Submissive Attitudes
One Redditor said, “Being submissive outside of the bedroom, lol.”
A second Redditor added, “Bowing down to my significant other every word.”
Losing Independence
This user said, “Can I say being in a relationship at all?”
Another user replied, “Yes, yes you can.”
Conjoining Nick Names
Another said, “Coming up w a “couple name,” i.e., first half of your name+last half of your partner’s name.”
Overly Flirtatious
This user said, “I used to cringe hard at cheesy nicknames for each other or overt flirting.
Grooming Habits
A Redditor said, “Popping your partner’s pimples when I hear other couples say they do this, I want to puke.”
Having Friends
Another user stated, “Not allowing my spouse to hang out one-on-one with people of his preferred sexual preference.”
Photo Shoots
Finally, a Redditor said, “Photo shoots. I get it for big occasions like engagements, weddings, and pregnancy but like every Christmas? Every Valentine’s Day? Every anniversary? Why?”
Redditors sure have boundaries when it comes to relationships.
