And people started sharing the absolute dumbest things their partner's had said, and honestly they're pretty funny. Here are some of the best ones:
1. "We were talking about dinosaurs and he was shocked to hear they were real. Then he proceeded to ask me if they really breathed fire. He thought dinosaurs and dragons were the same thing."
6. "She refused to pay taxes, have a bank account, or pay for public transit. She told me, 'I change my name every few years so they can't find me.' Like, she'd go to the government and change her name. Legally. So the government couldn't find her.'"
8. "She didn't know that yogurt and pudding were not the same thing. She thought it was like how the British call fries 'chips'. She had been eating pudding and granola for breakfast for months and congratulating herself for being so healthy."
9. "She didn’t understand that you actually have to pay what you spent on credit cards. Like the credit amount she had was supposed to be her monthly limit that just resets each month."
11. "We live in central Alabama. She told me that she and her best friend were going to Birmingham for the weekend. I didn't think anything of it; there's lots of shopping and things to do in Birmingham. She came over that Sunday night to tell me how disappointed she was with the trip. They had driven through all of the wealthier neighborhoods in Birmingham, Alabama, for two days trying to find a house that matched the gates to Ozzy Osborne's house and never found it. He lives in Birmingham, England."
13. "She walked into a computer lab on campus and simply picked up a computer and walked home with it. She was living with me at the time, so I get home to find a very familiar-looking computer sitting on the kitchen table. She literally thought the computers were free for students. It took a bit of explaining to convince her that she stole the computer. I made her return the computer to the lab that night; she left it at the doorstep."
15. "The doctor said my now ex-wife's test returned positive she asked, 'Does that mean I'm not pregnant?' I knew at that moment I was in for a long ride."
20. "She didn’t want to watch the first Avatar movie until her uncle told her that it was based on a true story. I asked her if she meant that it was a futuristic version of Pocahontas…but no, she thought that it was somehow based on a true story."
22. "An ex once asked, in all sincerity, 'Do people who speak other languages think in English? All my thoughts are in English and I assume we all think the same way.' We were 22 years old."
23. "I once asked my ex to start boiling the potatoes for dinner about 20 minutes before I got home so that they would be close to ready for me to mash up as the side for dinner. I got home right as he put them in the water. He had to call his dad to ask how to boil potatoes."
24. "My now husband, when we were first dating, told me that he believed that all plants could be classified as either a fruit or a vegetable. After we were married he told me he thought platypuses were the size of golden retrievers."
27. "After homecoming in high school, we went for pizza. She wanted to try a vegetarian diet and as we were selecting toppings she asked me, 'Is there meat in mushrooms?'"
29. "When I found out my ex didn't know what order the months go in. When I asked him to learn he got mad, said no, and that it wasn't something he was interested in."
