Hey, Hey Waffle, gang. I do hope you are well. My name is Mark and today we're checking out some more relationship stories. And if you do love a Reddit story and you are a cheeky so and so, please consider him that like, subscribe, maybe that notification bell too. Let's crack on with today's first story. Much love guys.

Now, today's first story comes from Throwaway Confused 84710 and says,

My wife is lying to me about something that's easily, verifiably false and insisting it is true.

I have an odd and very specific issue with my wife and wanted some perspective on it.

More than anything, I'm just confused really.

I'll lay out the details.

So my wife is really good at chess, like really good.

She used to play in tournaments.

She is a title of player.

I think her peak fide, which is I think is the

Chess Federation, the World Chess Federation rating was around like 2,300 to 2,350-ish. She's good.

I am not, lull. I enjoy the game, but I'm nowhere near her. I have an online rating of

1,120.

Recently our 10 year old son has started to show an interest in chess and we have been teaching

him the game. Before we began teaching him, my wife and I had talked and come to the agreement

that it would not benefit him to go easy on him or let him win. It was better to play at our real

strengths and help him understand the game,

help him learn to analyze his games,

replay the critical positions and understand where he could make improvements

or choose a different line.

We were totally on the same page on this,

full agreement.
