Recently, a 36-year-old woman wrote a letter expressing her disbelief that this was actually happening in her family and how ridiculous the circumstances seemed to her. Her spouse is a child at heart, and he recently played a practical joke on her by pretending to be unfaithful. The woman’s actual response did not match his expectations, and as a result, their marriage collapsed like a house of cards.
The woman’s husband played a very specific joke that set the whole thing off.
Taylor, a woman, wrote a letter to us sharing her story, which began as a practical joke and developed into a strained family dynamic.
“My husband pranked me and now my marriage is falling apart,” she began her letter. It’s untrue if you believe that because my spouse and I are young, we can afford to be careless. He’s 38 and I’m 36, and I still find it hard to believe this is actually happening. Even though I asked him to attend therapy with me, he won’t have any kind of talk.
Taylor continued her account, revealing the startling specifics of the altercation. “My dear husband left his iPad on the counter a month ago while I went to the gym and finished the dishes,” the woman wrote. It wasn’t until the entire drama had passed that I realized why he had been trying to get my attention the entire morning by leaving the iPad close to me and in the most obvious spot. I now understand why.
Taylor disclosed, “He received a very suggestive text and a picture of a woman in her underwear while I was loading our dishwasher.” There was an Ashley whose number it was. I stopped dead in my tracks. We have two children together and have been married for more than six years. When I started to dig deeper, I discovered that their entire conversation spanned more than two weeks. I could tell he was unfaithful to me by using this Ashley.
Although Taylor was furious, she didn’t respond the way her husband had hoped.
“I can’t even describe the intensity of pain I felt at that moment,” she said, describing her initial reaction to the revelation. I was crying and puking as soon as I ran to the bathroom. Then he asked me what was wrong as soon as he got back from the gym. I simply gave him my iPad, looked him in the eye, and told him I needed to go for a walk and that he had a message from Ashley. I requested that he remain with the kids. He concurred.
Taylor then took a leisurely four hours to walk. She disclosed that her spouse had sent her a thousand texts inquiring about her well-being. She said that she was fine and that she simply needed some fresh air each time.
“I don’t remember ever crying this much in my entire life,” the woman revealed. I told him about his repulsive affair as soon as I got home and asked him how we were going to handle this. Then he said, “Do what?” to me.
Taylor wrote, “I told him that we absolutely can’t stay married anymore,” demonstrating a very composed response. However, I was more interested in finding out how we would part ways while causing the kids the least amount of damage. I told him he could move out and I would be allowed to stay in our apartment with the kids until we got divorced because his parents live very close by.
Taylor’s spouse revealed his true nature right away.
Taylor disclosed that her discussion with her spouse took an unusual turn. “He asked me if that was really all my reaction and if I was kidding,” the woman wrote. I was perplexed and just stared at him. I had no idea at the time what he was trying to say with all of this. I informed him that I was simply too tired to talk about this further.
The husband then revealed his epic response. «He started yelling that I was very careless and cold,» wrote Taylor. He didn’t anticipate my response to his adultery. After giving me the iPad, he instructed me to call “Ashley.” I was so mad at him for making me call his mistress that I didn’t want to and fled to our room. But I called because he insisted. His best friend owned the number, and he was chuckling and calling it all a hilarious practical joke.
Taylor disclosed, “I started crying after realizing it, which took a few minutes.” My husband was furious with me for handling his prank of cheating. He felt that I wasn’t giving it enough thought. I’m not sure what he expected me to do. He was even unable to articulate his expectations of me. He was constantly screaming that this was not what he expected.
In an instant, the family’s life was disintegrating.
“Now, a long time later, he’s acting so cold and resistant with me,” Taylor wrote. Once, I even made an attempt to apologize and said that I was shocked as well as deeply offended. I made an effort to clarify that I simply didn’t want to harm our kids. I told him how much I loved him and that I would have died mentally if that had been true.
However, he doesn’t even listen to me and is really chilly with me. He claimed that he was certain that my response was out of the ordinary and that he wanted a divorce because he cannot trust a woman who is so aloof and uncaring. And while I believe that this entire situation is strange, he will get a divorce if that is what he wants.
