Drama Begins When Man Misses His Flight Because His Wife Refused To Pack His Suitcase While He Played Video Games
Staying in this marriage marathon can be the hardest task you will ever undertake in your life.
To most people, marriage is a lifetime race that you enter with high hopes of “happily ever after.” No couple enters marriage without high hopes of bliss, prosperity, and a rewarding union.
Staying in this marriage marathon can be the hardest task you will ever undertake in your life. It can also be the most rewarding and joyous experience of your life.
In fact, marriage is a two-edged sword. Unfortunately, the most common mistake young couples make in their marriage is expecting the journey to be smooth all the way; when bumps appear, they aren't prepared to handle them maturely.
There will be moments of misunderstanding in even the most successful marriages, but it takes love, maturity, and tolerance to overcome them. Marriage can be difficult if neither partner understands, respects, nor tolerates the other.
Well, Redditor u/LydiaBlue asked the AITA subreddit community to weigh in on a marital issue that's been bothering her. The OP’s husband recently missed a business flight because the two of them couldn't agree on who was responsible for packing his belongings.
It sounds simple, but the situation is much more complicated, revolving around respect, trust, and other crucial aspects of a healthy relationship. Below, you’ll get to read the full story.

Craig AdderleyMarriage is a journey that two people embark on with the expectation that "till death do us part" will be the end goal. However, they will never know when it will all come to an abrupt end.
I can tell you much about what transpired between the OP and her husband, but I think it's best if you just read the original post yourself.

Numerous Redditors believe the woman handled the situation appropriately. They are of the opinion that the husband is disrespectful and has a strange attitude and a sense of entitlement.
His sense of entitlement is rooted in the fact that he is the breadwinner of the family. Thus, he feels he can shirk all domestic duties, shifting them to his wife.
I can’t exhaust what the readers had to say about the man’s immature attitude, but you can read them for yourself as you scroll down.

The readers poured out their thoughts with no reservations in the comments section. They unanimously stressed how badly the husband needed to grow up.
To any sane person, marriage is a union that requires respect and understanding from both parties. Just because you are the breadwinner of the family doesn't justify disrespecting and reducing your partner to the level of house help.
Or don’t you think so?
