“Threesomes Saved Our Marriage” & 34 Other Mom Confessions
You’re going to need a mop for all this spilled tea.

You know how much you love hearing gossip that doesn’t come back on you at all? Like your dental hygienist who tells you about her cousin’s ex-husband and all the court dates he’s having with his neighbor? It’s so satisfying and so exciting to hear about someone else’s mess, and that’s pretty much the vibe of this week’s Scary Mommy Confessions.
Except, these confessions are also from moms just like you. So you might find one or two a little more relatable than you’d like. (You also might find some so wildly unrelatable that you wonder if that person could actually be real.)
Honestly, when you think about how much each of us is carrying — whether in our personal lives, our work lives, or our mom lives — it’s no wonder we’re ready to spill it all the second we get a chance. Who knows, maybe we’ll be the friend-of-a-friend-of-a-friend gossip for someone else one day.
Scary Mommy Confessions are a tried-and-true part of what makes our site so fun. If you want to anonymously confess, look for our weekly callouts on Instagram. And to browse past Confessions, head here.
Taking care of my aging mom is a reality check as to what I may expect in the future.
