What terrible fact did you not realise about your spouse until after you married them?

0:06.4

My cousin found out her fiancé was cheating on her the night before the wedding.

0:10.4

His response was, this is how the world works, grow up.

0:13.7

The only person she told was my sister, and she was too scared to cancel anything the day

1:16.9

else who'd tell him he was a great guy. He was bad with money. Imagine getting your paycheck,

1:22.8

spending 60 bucks on Green Herb, then buying a Nintendo Wii, maybe an Xbox, some games, not used, I mean

1:29.5
