When love starts, it feels like it’ll last forever. But life has its twists, and sometimes, “forever” comes with an unexpected end.
Take this husband, for example. He decided to end his marriage with a dramatic letter, hoping it would soften the blow. Instead, he got a reply so clever and savage, it might go down in breakup history.
Here’s how it all unfolded.
The Husband’s Letter
“My Dearest Wife,” it begins.
In this heartfelt (well, sort of) letter, he pours out his grievances from their seven-year marriage. He claims he tried everything—a haircut, her favorite meal, and even a new pair of silk boxers—but his efforts went unnoticed.
The final nail? Her quitting her job without telling him. And just when you think it can’t get worse, he drops this bomb:
“P.S. Your sister and I are moving to West Virginia. Wishing you a splendid life!”
Cue the eye rolls, right? But wait—her response is where the magic happens.
The Wife’s Reply
Instead of tears or anger, the wife’s comeback is nothing short of legendary.
She starts off cool and collected: “Receiving your letter was the highlight of my day.”
Then, she shreds his claims, piece by piece.
- That “amazing haircut”? It reminded her of a girl—but she was too polite to say so.
- The “favorite meal” he cooked? She’s been pork-free for seven years, so… nope.
- Those silk boxers? Funny, since she’d just lent her sister $50. Coincidence? Doubtful.
Oh, and about quitting her job? Turns out, she had a very good reason.
“I won $10 million in the lottery,” she reveals.
Yes, you read that right—$10 million! She’d planned a dream life for both of them. Too bad he was already halfway to West Virginia with her sister.
But the ultimate kicker comes in the postscript:
“P.S. In case I neglected to mention, my sister Carla was born Carl. I trust that’s not problematic!”
Mic. Drop.
The Lesson? Never Underestimate a Smart Woman.
This husband thought he was winning the breakup. Instead, he got outplayed at every turn.
If this exchange made you laugh, share it with your friends—you never know who might need a good comeback inspiration!
