When my parents got married, they were pretty poor. So poor in fact that they didn’t really go anywhere for a honeymoon, but it gets worse.
They thought they might just spend a nice night at home, but even that wasn’t in the cards. My dad came down with the flu or something, and my mom went to the Piggly Wiggly (a real name for a real store that apparently still exists) and bought him some care items.
That was that. Their honeymoon was the Piggly Wiggly.
Still not as bad as some of the stories from these anonymous people, though.
10. Another man
So you don’t even get to go then?
9. Trouble with the laws
That’s gonna be a big yikes from me, dog.
8. Quitting
But you shouldn’t have to do that? That’s illegal discrimination?
7. Right out of the gate
So you just didn’t really wanna do this at all, huh?
6. The walls
“My husband played along and was ‘scared’ too.”
5. So romantic
Doesn’t get a whole lot better than that.
4. What’s your emergency?
Thanks a lot, thief of joy.
3. Interesting
Talk about bad luck.
2. Faking it
And this is why waiting till marriage is a super iffy idea.
1. Checking in
“…in the most serious way as she exited.”
I guess the honeymoon phase is over. And so is this list. But come back for more real soon!
Have you had a honeymoon? How did it go?
