Husbands Who Took ‘For Better Or For Worse’ As A Challenge

We spend so much time dating and trying to find the one because being married is something that many of us strive for in our lives. But, behind every wish, there is a darker side that no one ever tells you about.

No one ever explains the absolute insanity a husband will bring to your life. You think you have a good idea about the type of man you're about to marry and then he goes and does the dishes in the bathtub or starts craving weird dipping sauces for his pizza. It's a struggle.

This Is Actually Fine

You gotta love when your partner is trying to pull a prank on you and it backfires because you're actually really down with what they've 'done' to you. A Ryan Gosling body pillow? Yes, please.

Ok, This Is Just Cruel

Any sane person would promptly walk out of their house and not return after seeing this. Part of you would know it was a joke, but spiders are sneaky, so better safe than sorry.

They wouldn't have had to even move from the spot they were standing! All it would have taken was bending down and picking them up, but no, the hamper was too high.

You don't need to try this to know that it's super gross. Fish crackers and milk does not a cereal make. We've all faced desperate times in our lives, but this is a choice, and a bad one at that.

In what universe did washing dishes in the bathtub seem like it was the right thing to do? Here's an idea — don't leave the dishes so long that the bathtub is the only thing big enough to hold all of them.

Your husband tells you he's going to go downstairs to use the treadmill and you feel proud of him. You go downstairs to check on him and he is, in fact, using the treadmill, but to play with toy trucks.

It's The Effort That Counts

This is what happens when your husband suspiciously agrees to do something with you that you thought you were going to have to badger him into doing. He had a plan all along.

"Put the pasta on the stove so I can start cooking when I get home" was probably the text he got. While he isn't wrong in what he did, it wasn't quite right either.

If the sun is in your eyes and you're trying to enjoy your Powerpuff Girls sheets, then using your wife's bra seems like the only logical conclusion. It seems to be working for this guy, anyway.

This husband decided to use a post-Halloween discount skeleton to make a point to his wife that she takes way too long in the shower. He should just mind his own business.

Here is what I would like to know. I'm sure this is not the first time this man has had bananas in his house, so in all those times did he ever find them in the laundry room? Probably not, so when his wife asked him to hang them up, why is this the route he chose to take?

If he wasn't sorry before, he will be now! Then again, a cake might be enough to appease the period monster known as PMS cravings. It depends on if it's chocolate or not.

If your wife asks you to sharpen her lip pencil, she does not mean with the biggest kitchen knife you can find. To be fair, this seems like a task she should have done herself.

You walk into your bathroom and see this on your counter, what do you do? Nothing. Some things are just better left alone. It's likely you know the answer and it's dumb, or it's dumb and you don't want to know the answer.

A baby shower card is almost the same as a birthday card. It is celebrating the future birthday of a child so I think that his duct tape makeover is acceptable.

What A Tragedy

It's probably just time to throw all those almost eaten bags of snacks out. People don't change, there are always going to be unfinished chips in their life, and it's best just to accept it and move on.

The Muffins!

What kind of monster does this? The only good part of any muffin is obviously the top, especially if it's crispy. This had to be an act of revenge because it's just insanity.

Not sure how he came up with that flavor combo, but the less we know in these sorts of situations the better. Maybe he's just trying to be supportive of his wife's weird pregnancy cravings by inventing his own.

When his wife asked if he could stir her drink, I doubt that this is what his wife had in mind. Next time it might just be better for her to go and get a spoon herself.

What is it with husbands leaving the worst parts of a snack behind? Do they think if they leave it long enough someone else will deal with it or are they trying to assert their dominance?

Piling all the dishes in the sink is not exactly keeping the counter clean, which is what this husband was asked to do. But, we will let this one slide because the counter is actually spotless.

If a husband asks where the markers are in the house, be a little bit worried. They're probably going to get up to no good... or worse, do something really nerdy.
