My cheap seat choice turned into a couples therapy session at 30,000 feet

I snagged a cheap flight that stuck me in a middle seat between two couples on a rough trip. They pulled me into their fights over cash and schedules, making the hours drag (honestly, it was a mess). Do you think some money-saving moves just invite awkward situations?

Ever try noise-cancelling headphones?

Honestly, saving the cash is ALWAYS worth it for me. A few hours of weirdness pays for a whole extra day of vacation. I just stare straight ahead and pretend I'm watching a really boring movie on the seatback.

But isn't saving money worth a little discomfort?
