Everyone loves the idea of a fresh start — but what happens when the new year starts messy?

In this episode of Internet Friendsy, we read wild Reddit stories from people whose year began with secrets, emotional fallout, and moments they wish they could undo. From relationships cracking under pressure to confessions that changed everything overnight, these stories prove that sometimes the baggage doesn’t stay in the past.

This episode includes

A marriage shaken by emotional honesty that came too late

A family situation that sparks a heated AITAH debate

A confession that blew up an entire friend group in under a minute

And a story that feels deeply uncomfortable even though nobody technically crossed a line

We dig into the gray areas, including

Is an unsent message still a betrayal or just a private thought

When emotional processing outside a relationship becomes a boundary violation

Why things can feel wrong even when no rule was clearly broken

One of the stories is fake — and we want to know if you can spot it.

Christmas was supposed to be cozy, joyful, and full of family memories… but this episode proves the holidays bring out the absolute messiest behavior.

In this week’s episode of Internet Friendsy, we dive into a jaw-dropping AITAH story where a newly married woman finds herself blindsided on Christmas night when her husband invites a “friend” over without checking first. What starts as an awkward visit quickly turns uncomfortable when emotional confessions, shared holiday memories, and a very personal gift raise serious red flags. When the wife finally asks the guest to leave, she’s accused of ruining Christmas — and now her own husband wants her to apologize.

Was she protecting her marriage… or crossing a line?

We unpack the boundaries (or lack of them), the husband’s reaction, and the update that completely changes how this story feels — including what was really inside the gift and why it hurt more than anyone expected.

We also get into:

– Should a spouse ever invite someone over on a major holiday without checking first?

– Why is the husband defending his “friend” instead of validating his wife?

– When does emotional history become emotional cheating?

– Are apologies owed here — and if so, by who?

Plus, we break down additional holiday-from-hell AITAH stories featuring family drama, boundary issues, and Christmas chaos that will make you feel way better about your own holidays.

Grab your headphones, pour the wine, and decide for yourself…

AITAH? 🎧🎄

In this week’s episode, we dive into jaw-dropping real-life cheating stories that left people stunned, betrayed, and searching for answers. From secret gym “workouts” that weren’t workouts at all, to hall pass rules gone very wrong, these stories prove the truth always comes out.

💔 This episode covers:

• A wife “working out” at the gym… but actually having an affair

• A relationship ending after a hall pass kiss crossed the line

• A wife caught cheating with a co-worker—should he give her another chance?

• A spouse caught kissing a random girl at a bar—what would you do?

We break down the red flags, the confrontations, and the tough decisions that follow when trust is shattered. If you love messy relationship drama, cheating confessions, and real talk about love and boundaries, this episode is for you.

This week on Internet Friendsy, we’re going full “Feast Mode” with the wildest, sweetest, and most unhinged Thanksgiving stories Reddit has to offer. We’re digging into the viral r/AskReddit thread asking “Who ruined Thanksgiving this year?”—from kitchen catastrophes to in-law meltdowns—and following it up with a wife who posted AITA because she tried to ban football on Thanksgiving and accidentally started a holiday civil war. But it’s not all chaos: we also dive into a heart-stopping story of pure human kindness, where a woman hospitalized with severe eye burns is surrounded by love, warmth, and support from complete strangers. And finally, we explore the quiet struggle of an introverted OP who hates Thanksgiving but keeps hosting every year for her disabled, social-butterfly mom—venting to Reddit because sometimes the emotional labor hits harder than the food coma. It’s messy, wholesome, relatable, and peak holiday humanity. Tune in for drama, comfort, and the real stories behind Thanksgiving traditions, breakdowns, and unexpected acts of compassion.

This week’s episode is all about the things families keep hidden… and the fallout when those secrets finally surface. We’ve got four stories: three are true, one is completely made up, and it’s your job to figure out which one is the fake.

Story 1: Someone starts noticing strange details around their aunt’s “death”… and begins wondering if the family covered up something much bigger.

Story 2: A TIFU that starts with confronting Mom about a “lie” from childhood and ends with a truth that changes their entire understanding of the family.

Story 3: A listener finds out their dad has a secret second family — the kind of discovery that feels like a plotline, except it’s real.

Story 4: AITAH for being upset after learning my best friend has been secretly dating my little sister for two years?

Three real stories. One fake. See if you can pick out the lie before we reveal it.

It’s Halloween night, and things are getting real creepy on Internet Friendsy. In this special episode, we’re diving into four bone-chilling true stories that’ll make you double-check your locks — and maybe think twice about answering the door.

Story 1: A woman notices something off about her mailman… and realizes he might be stalking her. 📬

Story 2: Two ten-year-olds are chased by a white van — but what’s left behind in the forest will haunt them forever. 🚐

Story 3: Two relentless intruders try to break into an apartment complex… until they meet a pair of massive pit bulls. 🐾

Story 4: A mysterious six-year-old girl goes trick-or-treating alone — and everyone in the neighborhood swears they saw her. But who was she really? 🍬

It’s eerie, it’s suspenseful, and it’s 100% the Halloween energy you need.
