That feeling when brutally honest relationship advice can be gotten from memes, amirite?

I'll be the first to say that meme culture is not something I'm really that big a fan of, especially when it comes to the often-toxic relationship advice people get from them.

However, once in a blue moon, you'll find brutally honest relationship memes that totally nail what it's like to be out and dating in the modern singles' scene. Sometimes, the meme will really knock it out of the park by offering up heaping servings of decent advice to those who read them.

The New Definition of Commitment

Kicking off this list of brutally honest relationship memes is one from someecards. Between crushing student loans, killer credit card debt, and the fact that the price of living keeps climbing while wages stagnate, it's easy to see why a lot of people feel like being a couple means that you join forces to try to get out of debt for once in your life.

We are the generation that lacks commitment because we're too broke to afford it. Yeah, if you're a Millennial, you already know that you can relate to this a little too well.

"TL, DR: Don't Chase, Get Chosen."

This is, quite possibly, one of the most brutally honest relationship memes to be dishing advice on the net right now. Too many people have tried to chase people who showed little to no interest in them, and that's a terrible, confidence-draining way to live life.

If you're wondering if the person who you're with really wants to be with you, and you constantly feel like you have to chase them, you already know the answer. It's brutally honest dating advice, but it'll never steer you wrong.

We've All Been There...

Nothing's quite as aggravating as having a message you text left on "read" with no reply. If you've ever had this happen, then you already know how tempting it is to just bug the person on the other end of that text until they talk to you.

At least you know it's not just you who feels that way—and that's why this is one of the most brutally honest relationship memes that you'll be able to relate to. (Don't worry, you're probably not psycho if you can relate to this.)

"You Are NOT the Profile Pic!"

Most people out there already assume that every Tinder profile has at least one or two little white lies, but most of us have encountered at least one date that didn't look anything like the pictures they posted. (Except, you know, when they were 10 years younger.)

This is one of the most brutally honest relationship memes we've seen about what life is like when you're still trying to get a decent partner on Tinder. Anyone who's been catfished will tell you the same.

"I'm Dating a Real Psycho..."

If you've ever seen a couple where both people are insane, you'll understand why this is such a seriously honest meme. Yes, crazy tends to attract crazy at times. In an ideal world, we'd roll with it... as long as it's not Mike Myers-level crazy.

"What's Wrong?"

There are a lot of brutally honest relationship memes that involve this line—and honestly, they totally pinpoint that weird passive-aggressive stunt people do when they're angry but won't tell you why they're angry. It's a pain, right?

I really dislike it when people insist they're fine when they're not. It's a sign of a person who has communication issues, or worse, is emotionally manipulating you.

For the record, being passive-aggressive isn't a good way to go through life and can actually cause you to lose out on good people in life. So, if you're like the cat in this meme, you might want to rethink your communication skills.

Farts Are a Pain

You know how, when you're at the beginning of a new relationship, everything is magical and you don't want to mess it up? You know how you don't want to appear gross? Yes, this is one of the most brutally honest relationship memes we've seen to deal with this issue.

So... much... stomach pain. Pass the Gas-X, please. (The truth hurts, I guess?)

Just a Bit Too Casual

Seriously, Barbie, leave a little mystery.

But let's be real, most couples do end up getting a bit more casual as the years pass. Is it sexy? Not really, but there's a certain point where being comfortable around you makes it more entertaining.

Modern Relationships In a Nutshell

If you've ever experienced the trainwreck that is dating in the modern world, all the inspirational quotes, marriage quotes, and lovey-dovey life quotes your friends post on Facebook will not help you keep the faith alive. The only thing that can? A miracle, if you're anything like other burnouts.

This is one of the most brutally honest relationship memes we've seen featuring minions. We approve.
