Hey, Hey Waffle gang, I do hope you are well.

My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more relationship stories.

You've been absolutely loving them just recently so I'll keep them coming because they have

been quite interesting as well.

If you do love a Reddit story, why not consider hitting a like, subscribe, maybe that notification

bell too and let's crack straight on with today's first story.

And as always, today's first story does come with an update as well. It's titled, My 26

female, Mum's 54 female, plan to surprise my dad 55 male with the divorce is kind of cruel.

My parents have been married for almost 30 years.

Their marriage is not great.

My dad's the kind of person who will come home from working get angry that there isn't dinner on the table.

Growing up, my dad never treated my mother like an

equal. She was expected to do all the housework and look after the children and dote on her

husband as all times. My parents have been empty nesting for a few years now. I have one younger

sister and we're both out of the house and have our own lives. Neither of us kids have

particularly liked our dad.

Like, we love him in the way that you love family and we are grateful that he provided for us

and helped us pay for college. But my dad is an asshole who treats my mom poorly and I never

respected him for this. I recently got brunch with my mother and she dropped some pretty heavy news. She's

planning on divorcing my father. I was honestly relieved and happy for her that she's finally doing

this, but her plan to do so is rather troubling. My parents are Chinese immigrants. My dad's best

friend growing up, Daniel and his family have been saving for a trip to the US for years.
