Husband Played A Cruel “Cheating” Prank On Her, So She Got So Upset She Threw $10k Worth Of Wedding Rings In The Ocean
by Matthew Gilligan
Wow…all I can say is…WOW.
The guy you’re going to meet in this Reddit story needed a wake-up call and I think it’s safe to say that his wife gave it to him.
But did she go too far?
Read on to get all the details…
AITAH for throwing my rings in the ocean after my husband told me he had an affair, even though it was a “prank”.
“This is the dumbest thing that’s ever happened to me in my entire life.
This past Sunday, my husband and I (m29 and f27) were on our boat together. We were just relaxing and talking and having a good morning.
Excuse me?
All of a sudden, my husband gets really serious and tells me “baby, I’m so sorry but I have to tell you something. I’m so sorry, please forgive me, I had an affair.”
For context, my husband thinks he’s a comedian. He says dumb **** all the time but he’s never joked about our marriage or relationship or cheating, ever.
The way he said it, I fully believed him.
Uh oh!
I was blinded by rage and hurt and I’m not a confrontational person at all so all I did was stand up, take my rings off, and throw them into the ocean.
I don’t even know why I did it, it was just the first thing I thought of doing.
My husband’s jaw hit the floor.
He immediately started to yell at me that it was a joke, a prank, he wasn’t serious and I was an idiot.
My jaw dropped then too.
I yelled at him too and called him the same.
I cried too, realizing I just threw my lovely and sentimental rings into the ocean.
Well, that didn’t go as planned…
We’ve been arguing for days. He says I’m the *******, I say he’s the *******, and I have no idea who’s right.
Yes admittedly I threw about 10k worth of rings into the ocean and we will never find them again- but he looked me in my eyes and told me he had an affair.
I am upset about my rings.
I’ve apologized for throwing them. But I just don’t feel like the *******.”
