Woman Expects Husband To “Beg” After Breakup Prank, Gets Served Divorce Papers Instead

I've told my wife, if someday for whatever reason she wanted a divorce, she only need to tell me once and I will do exactly like her husband do. Leave and never look back.

The ultimate PLAY STUPID GAMES, WIN STUPID PRIZES post. What the hell did she think was going to happen? I'm completely baffled by the OP's incredible stupidity. No sympathy at all... Except for the husband.

Not the brightest bulb in the box is she? My ex did a similar thing to me, except she was serious - one day during our Sunday walk, she told me she wasn’t happy and would divorce me when our two kids left the nest in about 3 years. I said nothing, but waited two years and left her. She, of course, made me the villain. About 3 years after that, I remarried and been happily married for 25 years. Yeah I’m that old.

So what’s the next TikTok joke? Record your kid’s reaction when you threaten to push them out of a moving car?

She FA, and FO. Newton's 4th Law of Personal Dynamics.

I would have done the same. He's cutting his loses.

I just realized that the word "divorce" is like a gun: you don't pull it out unless you intend to use it. Perhaps I'm slow to just realize that but I've never owned a gun or joked about divorce.

Its worse that it was a joke. Who would want to stay married to someone like OP? Cruel sense of humour, terrible friends, never takes responsibility, treats her relationship like reality show entertainment. This can't be the first time he's noticed, glad it gave him the push needed to leave such a despicable person.

F*****g moron...

If I made that "joke" to my wife I know it would break her heart into pieces, hence I don't do anything as stupid as this. Common sense

Maybe I'm old but lately what I am finding that some of these people think are jokes/pranks are insane! Gaslighting someone for reaction...I would've left too. And don't blame your friends or peer pressure. She had every opportunity to tell them to f**k-off, she's not doing it. Perfect example of play stupid game win stupid prizes.

Are they all 12? Jokes are meant to be funny. This wasn’t.

This was not a joke, it was an attempt at manipulation. OP wanted her husband to beg and plead and make suggestions how to become a „better“ partner. This is disgusting.

Sounds like she broke his heart just by saying the word. My husband would do the same thing. I’ve seen him back away from friends and family simply because they say they don’t want to talk to him. He is an amazing person. Stuff like that hurts. He moves on and focuses on the future. That girls “friends” are not friends.

A marital prank is hanging a fake mouse in front of the car's back up camera or hiding the little garden gnome in my work computer bag. "I'm not happy. I want a divorce" should only be said if that's what you really want.

Arguably finding out it was just a joke or a test would make me question the relationship more than if she had been serious and then changed her mind. Why would you do that? She could have just told her friends it was rubbish, or told her husband about how immature her friends were and laugh about it. There was no need to actually do it, she even thought it was cruel herself.

She can’t even spell. “Loose” instead of “lose,” “truely” instead of “truly.” She sounds really dumb on a lot of levels

There things that can make someone stop loving someone else. Breaking someone's heart is a good way. I am afraid it cannot easily be mend; the trust is simply gone and with that the love.

Most of us learn the "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" rule before we learn to drive. Too bad she didn't. No sympathy.

Well, I suppose her next "joke" will be telling her children she doesnt love them and see their reaction. b*tch.

You can absolutely unlove someone within an instant if something they do is hurtful enough. Doesn't matter if it was a brainrot joke or not, it was real to him in that moment. Something shattered inside the man. It's not something you can just glue back together. What a cruel thing to do.

OP should get rid of those idiot friends, and get some therapy to find out why she would let other people pressure her to do something that she knows is mean. And then do a lot of growing until she's become mature enough to be in a relationship. They could get relationship therapy, but it's up to the husband whether he wants that or not. And if he doesn't, then she just has to accept that sometimes 1 bad decision can completely break something and there's nothing you can do to unbreak it. Similar to when someone kills someone in an impulse, or put a house on fire, or drives drunk and creates a crash. Yes it was ONE decision, but the damage has been done and you have to find a way to live with that, just like those people do.

What the fúck??? Why would that be a joke, and why are her friends' spouses fine with it

He was already looking for a way out...She gave it to him! lol

The audacity to claim "we have no issues that i know of" after literally toying with his emotions to get a reaction to boost her self esteem.

You and your friends are all idiots.

Serves you right for following a trend that you didn't want to. No sympathy. Not everyone's situation is the same; just because others have done it, doesn't mean you have to do (see milking, planking, etc etc).

classic FAFO

OMG! I finally get to repeat one of the funniest things I ever read and it really applies here.. ... My Dear, the d!ldo of consequence rarely arrives lubed. You broke your marriage for your friends entertainment. I'm not sure what else there is to expect.

SHE is the joke here, and doesn't even realize it.

First of all, I will question if you actually love him if you've done it. Second, this is what tik-tok and all the other sociopathetical media does with brain. No support for such a behavior, you have what you've wanted. Go to your girlfriends now.

Some things you just don't joke about, divorce is one or in an airport about a bomb. Deserved what she got.

Zero sympathy - grow up girl. And make better friends and decisions.

I have seen these brutal pranks online. They are sickening and destructive. Love is felt in different ways for people. Someone with ADHD can completely Stop loving you right there and then. That second. Everything gone. Absolutely no going back because it's completely over. Decades of love, zip gone. So what if you were the only one out of the five friends who didn't do this despicable cruel prank?? That made you Better than them. You need help to cope with what has happened and to learn actions have consequences. You've Destroyed his life and yours. He won't ever come back. You f****d up

She did it because she was the only one out of her group of friends who hadn't done it. Well if all of her friends were to put their heads in the gas oven would she do the same? If she genuinely loved her husband she would never dream of treating him like that. I don't blame him for reacting the way he did. My ex-husband frequently said that he wanted a divorce/that we weren't compatible/that it was time he found someone else. I don't know if he really meant it or not. I don't think he knew himself whether he meant it or not. It was just words he banded about to hurt me. When I'd eventually packed my bags and was about to walk out the door he seemed genuinely baffled about why I was leaving him. The very last thing I said to him was, "I don't know why you're so upset. You've got what you wished for."

hurting someone is never a joke. You never would stab someone for a prank,so don't harm them mentally either

Playing with people's emotions is in no way a joke. Also I think OP could choose better "friends".

I've seen posts like this several times on BP and nobody ever said the outcome was good. It's too cruel to be funny.
