As everybody probably knows by now, a Karen is one of the most entitled people you’ll ever meet. Someone like this only knows how to annoy other folks until they get their way, and they don’t stop until everyone else listens to them.
So it can be tough to like such an individual or even be close to them, but the folks on this list are unfortunately tied to a Karen in one way or another. Check out their stories to see exactly how they’re bonded and what kind of drama they’ve had to deal with.

When I first met my wife, she was beautiful is every single way.
I remember looking at her when we walked around a lake and as she spoke to the ducks I thought "I'm going to marry this beautiful Snow White". She loved all animals and they loved her right back. Her soul was pure.
She looked like a queen in everything she wore, be it jeans or a sun dress. She was never a princess type woman, she was always destined to be my queen. She demanded love and respect because that was what she deserved.
I'm not sure when she changed, but slowly and surely, she did.
She humiliates me, she belittles me and she saddens me.
I'll never be right or even acknowledged to have a valid point or opinion.
She wastes money that I work hard to earn.
She has strategically spaced out our pregnancies to maximise the time she doesn't have to return to paid work. She has admitted this.
Why don't I leave her?
Better the devil you know, aye?

Best friend married a Karen. This woman is a whole different level of Karen.
He makes a large 6 digit salary but has to work cycle shift away from home. She has the option to move from home so they can live as a family, but refuses because she has what she calls a career. She sells scents and works a clerk job at an HR office...
They have two kids, she can't handle them. She makes him drive home from work everyday so she can workout for 30mins in the evening. It's a 7 hours commute. He had to buy another vehicle because he couldn't take the company vehicle back and forth. So expensive and dangerous.
There's too many things, here's some;
- When she's working at home he has to leave the house with the kids and can't comeback until she says it's okay.
- Insane spending habits on unessecary stuff, Amazon, scentsy and other MLM products.
- Any negative things that happens in her life is his fault and he has to fix it immediately no matter the cost.
- She texts and calls him every 10 minutes at work to complain about him being away from home and how the kids drive her crazy.
- She made him buy a a luxury camper(40k) so she can visit him at work, came one time.
- She puts the kids in daycare even though it costs them more then she financially makes
- Wants more kids.
- Wants huge renovations done but refuses to watch the kids while he does them. He has to watch them while working, nothing gets done quick and that "gives her anxiety and stress".
- Makes him tend job fairs in hopes that he'll find a job making just as much money. It won't happen but he does it anyway to please the demands.
It frustrates me because my time with him has literally become therapy sessions where he vents for hours. It's brutal and I hate that he tolerates it.
The one that gets me the most is that she'd rather pretend to have a really good career then move with him so they can live a great family lifestyle, they'd save lots of money and they would be a much better parenting team!
