When you first start dating, you see your partner through rose-colored glasses. There's nothing wrong that they can do, no dinner too salty, no tardiness for a date, or a red flag you might notice. Infatuation makes you miss things you'd notice if you weren't so in love. Research shows that the honeymoon phase lasts anywhere from a few weeks to two years.
But what happens when that period passes? Well, you start noticing some things. Misplaced socks, dirty dishes, irritating comments here and there. You might even catch your partner saying or doing some dumb things once in a while.
This article is dedicated to the stories about how people realized their partner might not be the sharpest tool in the shed. "What was your 'I'm dating an idiot' moment?" one netizen asked recently, and the stories range from cute and wholesome to embarrassing and incredibly cringeworthy.
