After 47 years of marriage, my husband declared he wanted a divorce and a life of freedom. When I, stunned, asked if he was serious, he simply smirked and said, \u201cCome on, Nicky!\n
You can\u2019t say you didn\u2019t see this coming. We both know there\u2019s nothing left between us.\n
I don\u2019t want to waste my remaining years sulking around. I want to live, be free, and maybe even find someone. . .\n
someone gorgeous, who isn\u2019t like you\u2014a dead goat. SO YES, I\u2019M DIVORCING YOU.\n
\u201d If that wasn\u2019t enough, he smugly informed me he\u2019d booked a trip to Mexico, entirely funded by our joint account.\n
\n
The divorce? No surprise\u2014I\u2019d known for a while he was sneaking around with a younger woman, but I clung to familiarity, even if it meant pretending not to notice him slipping away.\n
But this final act\u2014leaving with our savings and hurling insults\u2014sparked a fury in me I hadn\u2019t known I possessed. So, I crafted a revenge plan that soon had John knocking on my door, pleading to come back\u2026\ud83d\ude33\ud83d\udc47\n
A \u201csavage\u201d wife taught her husband a harsh lesson after he left her for a romantic affair with a young brunette. \u201cDivorce?\n
John, tell me you\u2019re not serious! And what did you say?\n
You want a fair share? \u201d Nicky exploded, shifting unsteadily in her chair as her husband announced he was \u201ctired\u201d of his monotonous life and wanted to live his life like a free man.\n
John smirked. \u201cOh, Nicky!\n
It\u2019s not like you didn\u2019t see it coming. Come on.\n
We both know there\u2019s nothing left between us. I don\u2019t want to spend the rest of my life sulking with you.\n
I want to live. Like a free man.\n
And I will find someone \u2013 beautiful and gorgeous\u2026. who\u2019s not a dead goat like you!\n
So, yes, I am divorcing you. \u201d\n
\u201cAnd you think I will let you off the hook so easily? You wish, John!\n
\u201d Nicky snarled. \u201cYou want to live like a free man, don\u2019t you?\n
Well, guess what? I am not going to sign the divorce papers, and you are not getting a single penny, let alone any share!\n
\u201d \u201cYou can\u2019t do that, Nicky!\n
If you don\u2019t sign the papers of your own volition, I will compel you to the point where you will have to! \u201d\n
Nicky laughed. \u201cOh, poor Johnny!\n
What will you do? Bring a mistress home?\n
Those young girls you\u2019ve been playing around with? They won\u2019t clean and cook for you like I did, John!\n
I looked after you for 47 goddamn years! I raised our children by myself while you slept on the living room couch after work, drank beer, and went out with friends.\n
And you think you\u2019re going to get away with it? Never!\n
\u201d \u201cWell then,\u201d John paused, looking at his wristwatch.\n
\u201cI don\u2019t think I have a way out. I am leaving for a trip to Mexico in one hour.\n
And I guess I\u2019ll be away for six months. I completed all of the bookings, and, well, I used up nearly all of the savings we had in our joint account.\n
\u201cLet\u2019s see if you\u2019d divorce me willingly or continue struggling to make ends meet and beg me for money. After all, what would a stay-at-home-wife like you do if she doesn\u2019t have money?\n
Have a good time, honey,\u201d he said, mocking her. \u201cI\u2019m looking forward to my time in Mexico!\n
\u201d \u201cWhat?\n
How the hell did you\u2026That had my savings too, John! How dare you use it without discussing it with me?\n
\u201d \u201cI knew you would create a ruckus over divorce Nicky.\n
And so, that\u2019s how I had it planned! \u201d\n
With that, John went to their bedroom, packed his stuff, and walked out of their house, leaving behind the divorce papers for Nicky. \u201cIf you don\u2019t want to live with the consequences of your decision, sign it as quickly as possible.\n
Otherwise, your life will be nothing but hell from now on! \u201d he added before leaving.\n
Nicky broke down in tears as she saw John walk away. Sure, John hadn\u2019t been the best partner ever, but she\u2019d only recently discovered that he was sleeping with women much younger than him who didn\u2019t want anything serious but just a night\u2019s stand.\n
And so, he tried to get rid of her and divorce her. But Nicky didn\u2019t want the divorce.\n
After their son and daughter moved out, she had only John by her side. And so, even after discovering his infidelity, she kept mum, thinking things would improve, but alas, it did not.\n
John finally declared he wanted to divorce her. But she had made up her mind she wouldn\u2019t let him slide.\n
Not this time, John! You are not getting away with it!\n
Three months later\u2026 Nicky was sitting in the living room, sipping raspberry tea, munching on chocolate chip cookies, and continually checking her watch, when she heard the doorbell ring.\n
Her jaw dropped to the floor when she saw John at the doorstep. \u201cWhat are you doing here?\n
Aren\u2019t you supposed to be in Mexico? \u201d\n
\u201cOh, Nicky! I am sorry, I am so sorry for what I did!\n
\u201d he begged, getting on his knees. \u201cPlease forgive me.\n
I was wrong to leave you. I shouldn\u2019t have done that.\n
\u201d Nicky was stunned.\n
\u201cJohn, what\u2019s the matter? Okay, calm down.\n
Let\u2019s go inside and talk, alright? \u201d\n
\u201cOh, Nicky! Where do I even start?\n
I met this young girl, Maddison,\u201d he began once they\u2019d settled inside. \u201cShe was gorgeous, and I thought she loved me.\n
We spent two months in Mexico together\u2026But she was a con! She robbed me!\n
She took all my money and everything! We were living in her modest apartment in Mexico together.\n
She made me do everything for her, including cooking and cleaning. She had two children, and I even babysat them since I felt she loved me.\n
But every night\u2026\u201d he cleared his throat. \u201cWe never slept together because every time her kids would come into the room and she\u2019d make an excuse and leave with them.\n
She said she would marry me, but it was all fake\u2026she \u2013 she was just after the money! \u201d\n
\u201cOh, dear! \u201d Nicky gasped.\n
\u201cThat\u2019s terrible\u2026terrible\u2026You know what\u2026. \u201d She had started to speak when the doorbell rang.\n
\u201cJust a minute, John. Let me see who\u2019s there,\u201d Nicky said as he walked to the door.\n
\u201cWho\u2019s there, Nicky? \u2026 What \u2013 What are you doing here?\n
\u201d John was taken aback when he noticed Maddison on their porch. \u201cNicky!\n
She\u2019s the one! She\u2019s the one who robbed me!\n
\u201d The two women exchanged glances and burst out laughing.\n
\u201cAll right, John! I know everything.\n
Meet Mandy \u2013 or as you said \u2013 Maddison. She is my friend\u2019s daughter.\n
A single mother of two who helped me gather evidence against my infidel husband! I had warned you, John, that you would regret it!\n
I tracked down your hotel using Facebook and called Maddison for help. This was all a trap, honey, and I\u2019m so glad you fell for it!\n
\u201d \u201cWhat?\n
\u201d John exploded. \u201cYou did all of this on purpose?\n
! You will regret it, Nicky!\n
You will! \u201d\n
\u201cNo, John,\u201d Nicky yelled. \u201cYou will be the one at a loss this time.\n
Take your luggage and leave my house immediately! And yes, I\u2019m divorcing you, you jerk!\n
And I\u2019ll see to it that you don\u2019t get a single cent! So get up and leave!\n
GET OUT OF MY HOUSE NOW! \u201d\n
John took his luggage and left the house, mumbling something Nicky didn\u2019t care about. She thanked Mandy for her help, and the two women enjoyed a cup of delicious raspberry tea on that chilly morning, laughing about how well their plan worked out.\n
A few months later, John and Nicky were divorced, and when their children learned about what had transpired, they took their mother\u2019s side and ridiculed their father for stooping so low. What can we learn from this story?\n
You can\u2019t escape karma. John cheated on Nicky and vowed to make her life a living hell, but karma caught up with him.\n
Stop thinking of homemakers as weak. John believed he could easily convince Nicky to divorce him because he was the breadwinner and thus, had the upper hand in the marriage.\n
But karma proved him wrong. If you enjoyed this story, you might like this one about a woman who was completely baffled when she arrived at her late son\u2019s grave and met his carbon copy there.\n
