Why does it often seem like punctuality is something you’re either born with or you’re not? We’re all capable of being punctual, but at the same time, we all know someone who never fails to show up 15 minutes late to school, work, dates and probably even their own wedding.
Well, one man recently decided that he was tired of waiting around for his wife and attempted to teach her a lesson. Below, you’ll find the full story that he shared on the “Am I the [Jerk]?” subreddit, as well as a conversation with Marriage Mentor and Relationship Coach Katariina Räike.

Howdy, I'm Adelaide! I'm originally from Texas, but after graduating from university with an acting degree, I relocated to sunny Los Angeles for a while. I then got a serious bite from the travel bug and found myself moving to Sweden and England before settling in Lithuania about two years ago.
I'm passionate about animal welfare, sustainability and eating delicious food. But as you can see, I cover a wide range of topics including drama, internet trends and hilarious memes. I can easily be won over with a Seinfeld reference, vegan pastry or glass of fresh cold brew.

You called her a narcissist and a pill. That is not how you speak about someone you are supposed to love, no matter how time blind she is. For this you are an arsehole. You didn't want to 'teach her personal responsibility'. You straight up punished her. For this you are also an arsehole.

Yes. The wife may be inconsiderate, but the husband comes across as a thoroughbred bell-end.

Dude, when we need to be somewhere at 6, y'know what time we tell my mom it starts? 5. That way, when she comes rushing out the door at 5:15, we're fine. Work smarter, dude.

Why the hell should anyone think that's acceptable? Why should anyone have to resort to treating a grown a*s adult as if their a child that needs to be tricked. If you can't manage to get your $hit together on time, you obviously aren't interested in being included.
