Husband blasted over merciless ‘prank’ he performed on his spouse – which value them £8,000 and repeatedly arguing

A girl has published how an overly pricey prank her husband performed on her has left her questioning whether or not she will be able to ever forgive him.

The 29-year-old, believed to be from america, took to Reddit to give an explanation for the conundrum after her husband’s merciless trick left the couple £8,000 poorer.

Writing at the Am I The A****** (AITAH) discussion board, the nameless poster branded the pricy shaggy dog story the ‘dumbest factor that is ever came about to me in my complete lifestyles.’

She defined that she and her husband were taking a romantic boat experience in combination, when abruptly, he issued a startling confession.

‘This previous Sunday, my husband and I had been on our boat in combination. We had been simply stress-free and speaking and having a just right morning,’ she wrote.   

‘All of a unexpected, my husband will get truly critical and tells me “child, I’m so sorry however I’ve to inform you one thing. I’m so sorry, please forgive me, I had an affair”.’

Gobsmacked by the revelation, the woman couldn’t help herself in reacting with ‘blind rage’.

In the heat of the moment, she ripped both of her wedding rings off and furiously tossed them into the ocean.

‘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,’ she confessed.

In retrospect, she admitted she wasn’t even sure why she had reacted in such a way – but that it had been the ‘first thing I thought of doing’.  

She noted that although her husband likes to think of himself as ‘a comedian’, he had never made jokes about their relationship. 

‘He says dumb s*** 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,’ she fumed.

Her husband couldn’t believe what she had done and immediately began screaming that the admission of adultery wasn’t true.

‘He immediately started to yell at me that it was a joke, a prank, he wasn’t serious and I was an idiot.’

Realising what she had done, the woman began to cry, devastated to discover she had thrown her ‘sentimental’ rings into the sea for no reason.

‘My jaw dropped then too. I yelled at him too and called him the same. I cried too, realising I just threw my lovely and sentimental rings into the ocean,’ she explained.

She said the two had been left ‘arguing for days’ after the incident, with each believing the other to be at fault.

The Reddit user said she had ‘no idea who’s right’ and begged Reddit users to share their thoughts on the situation.   

‘He says I’m the a******, I say he’s the a******,’ she wrote. 

‘Yes admittedly I threw about £10,000 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.’

Although she had apologised for the outburst and for throwing the rings in the sea, she insisted she didn’t ‘feel like the a******’. 

Offering their thoughts on the situation, several took to the comments to defend the woman’s actions, with one calling the situation ‘traumatic’.

One wrote: ‘If someone lies to you about your child being killed in a car accident, then tells you later that it’s just a joke, that doesn’t change the traumatic experience you just had of believing your child is dead. Making someone experience trauma isn’t a prank, it’s engaging in cruelty for your own amusement.’ 

Another even suggested she divorce her husband for the cruelty. ‘Someone who breaks your heart as a “prank” isn’t someone I’d wanna be married to if I were you. You’re so young don’t be stuck with this jerk for the next 50 years,’ they wrote. 

A third added: ‘There are a hell of a lot of people whose ego won’t allow them to admit being wrong. These people are incapable of apologising, it’s a hit to their pride,’ adding that they were ‘concerned’ for the long term wellbeing of the poster.

Others even went as far as to call the behaviour ‘abuse’ and told her to be wary of staying married to her husband. 

However, one viewer prompt the affair could have been actual. ‘Maybe he in fact had an affair and simply backpedaled when he noticed how mad she were given,’ they stated.
