Falling in love often feels like a long-term investment. Many of us believe that the love we receive is deserved and will last a lifetime. Unfortunately, this isn’t always the case. Relationships can end abruptly, whether after a few months or many years.
In one instance, a husband decided to end his seven-year marriage by writing a divorce letter rather than having a face-to-face conversation. Little did he know, this decision would backfire spectacularly as his wife’s reply would teach him an unforgettable lesson.
Here’s the divorce letter the husband sent to his wife. While we can’t verify its authenticity, it’s still quite an interesting read.
Husband’s Divorce Letter
“Dear Wife,
I’m writing you this letter to tell you that I’m leaving you for good. I’ve been a good man to you during our seven years of marriage, and I have nothing to show for it. These last two weeks have been tough for me. Your boss informed me that you quit your job today, and that was the final straw. Last week, you came home and didn’t notice my new haircut, the dinner I made of your favorite meal, or my new silk boxers. You ate in two minutes and went straight to sleep after watching your soaps. You don’t tell me you love me anymore, and there’s no intimacy between us.
Either you’re cheating on me, or you don’t love me anymore. Whatever the case, it’s over, and I am leaving.
Your EX-Husband
P.S. Don’t try to find me. Your SISTER and I are moving to West Virginia together! Have a great life!”
Wife’s Brilliant Response
“Dear Ex-Husband,
Nothing made my day more than receiving your letter. Yes, we’ve been married for seven years, though calling you a good man is a stretch. I watch my TV shows to drown out your constant whining and griping, though it doesn’t help. I did notice your haircut last week, but my first thought was, ‘You look just like a girl!’ My mother taught me not to say anything if you can’t say something nice, so I didn’t comment.
When you cooked my favorite meal, you must have confused me with MY SISTER, because I stopped eating pork seven years ago.
As for the new silk boxers, I turned away because the $49.99 price tag was still on them. I prayed it was a coincidence that my sister had borrowed $50 from me that morning.
Despite all this, I still loved you and believed we could make it work. So when I won $10 million in the lottery, I quit my job and bought us two tickets to Jamaica. But when I got home, you were gone.
Everything happens for a reason, I guess. I hope you have the fulfilling life you always wanted. My lawyer says that your letter ensures you won’t get a dime from me. So, take care.
Signed, Your Ex-Wife, Rich As Hell & Free!
P.S. I don’t know if I ever told you this, but my sister Carla was born Carl. I hope that’s not a problem!”
Final Thoughts
Wow, it seems the ex-husband might be regretting his decision now. However, he might still be in love with his ex-wife’s sister. Regardless, this situation is full of drama. And let’s be honest, doesn’t this sound a bit too convenient? The ex-wife wins the lottery the same day he sends her a divorce letter. Also, what kind of marriage is so cold that people communicate solely through letters? Finally, who is the ex-wife writing to? Her ex-husband no longer lives with her!
