Husband's plight when leaving for work is absolutely hilarious
When you enter a long term relationship or marriage you give up one of the most amazing comforts you've ever had.
Your very own bed.
You have this double or king size bed all to yourself, and each sleep is more angelic than the previous.
However, you're then landed with the task of sharing, and it's a constant battle as to who has the most covers, leg room and who turns off the light.
But getting up in the morning is a huge battle too, especially when one is getting up around three to four hours earlier than the other.
How can you leave the room, with everything you need, without making noise and waking your partner?
"The worst thing about sharing a bed is silently getting up in the morning. You see my wife has this crazy ass expectation that I can just vanish without a peep. And she is the most unmorningest f**king ninja in the planet," commented Brad Kearns.
"She basically begins her day by plotting my murder. It's just too hard. Like she sleeps like a resting meerkat. Mission Impossible has nothing on a man trying to get out of his bedroom without waking the family."
In an apology note to his wife, Brad explains that it is just too hard for him to complete the task at hand, and we can all relate to his predicament.
"Like I try my best but I'm just not that graceful. I walk like an inflexible pink panther in my undies until she eventually just puts her head up and says 'just go'."
"Sometimes I fully get out of the bed without her stirring only to eventually trip on something or run into a doorway. Sometimes I don't wake up after my alarm goes off and she just threatens to kill me."
But like us all, even when we do get up, there's that 99 per cent chance you will trip or fall, and walk straight into a closed door, making more noise than a baby elephant.
"I always manage to lose something. Like every f**king day. As if we have a divorce Cupid who just wants to watch me f**king burn. Like I don't even know how but after ten years I still haven't managed to just walk out of the house without revisiting upstairs."
"You ain't never seen discontent like a woman at 4:30am asking 'what are you looking for'. I always make light of it like it's normal. But it's always something I really should have been able to find. I reply 'my shoes'. F**king dead."
Brad eventually signs off by apologising to his wife for ten years of waking her at 4.30am, and to be fair, knowing how much we cherish our sleep, there's a good chance we would be asking the same questions as his wife.
This is definitely something all couples can relate to – too funny.
