How do you know your relationship is over? In a general sense, most of us can agree it's when the bad experiences with your significant other start to outweigh the good.   Still, there's often one single moment that signifies the end of a relationship -- whether or not we recognize it at the time. On Saturday, Redditors on the Ask Reddit board shared the moment they realized their relationship had run its course. Check out what they had to say below. 1. Your number one source of stress is your significant other. "Being with your S.O. should be something that takes away stress , but over the course of a year, my S.O. became my number one cause of stress." 2. You can't see yourself being with your Significant Other for the long haul. "We were at a wedding I was in, and multiple times this thought passed through my mind: 'This will never be us.'

By Amanda Hoover @amahoover A Red Sox fan who was hit in the head with a broken beat in June was helped from the stands at Fenway Park.  Last month, Red Sox fan Tonya Carpenter was taken from Fenway Park screaming and bleeding after shards of a broken bat flew into the stands and struck in her in the head. On Friday night, a foul ball entered the Boston crowd during a game against the New York Yankees, hitting a woman in the face. She was left with a bruise between her eyes and is still recovering. While fans at Fenway Park have had a bad month, they’re hardly alone. Now, an Oakland A’s ticket-holder has filed a class-action lawsuit against Major League Baseball for not doing enough to protect fans, The New York Times reports. The plaintiff, Gail Payne, says she doesn’t feel comfortable in her seats because they lack protective netting. The lawsuit would apply to season-ticket holders with seats in the unprotected areas along the first and third ba...

I’ll get the powder.” WalMart receipts show he purchased a pressure cooker on July 3 in North Adams, the complaint says. The firearms Ciccolo got from the FBI ...

  Writing a movie can be a long and arduous task. Sure, it can be hugely pleasurable and result in a vast financial reward, but sometimes, another film beats you to the punch and releases the exact same plot before you are able to release your movie. And it turns out, that was the case with We’re The Millers and Ted 2 , as the 2013 comedy basically told the same story that Seth MacFarlane had originally dreamed up for his sequel. Seth MacFarlane made this admission during a recent chat I had with him regarding Ted 2 , and the comedy’s co-writer and director confessed that their first plan for the sequel was much different to what it turned into. MacFarlane confessed: "The first draft was actually going to be John and Ted trucking a pot shipment across the country, but We’re The Millers came out while we were writing it, and it was the same story. So we had to scrap it." Seth MacFarlane went on to add that the eventual plot for Ted 2 "kind of emerged b...
