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, āCome on, Nicky!
You canāt say you didnāt see this coming. We both know thereās nothing left between us.
I donāt want to waste my remaining years sulking around. I want to live, be free, and maybe even find someone. . .
someone gorgeous, who isnāt like youāa dead goat. SO YES, IāM DIVORCING YOU.
ā If that wasnāt enough, he smugly informed me heād booked a trip to Mexico, entirely funded by our joint account.
The divorce? No surpriseāIād 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.
But this final actāleaving with our savings and hurling insultsāsparked a fury in me I hadnāt known I possessed. So, I crafted a revenge plan that soon had John knocking on my door, pleading to come backā¦
A āsavageā wife taught her husband a harsh lesson after he left her for a romantic affair with a young brunette. āDivorce?
John, tell me youāre not serious! And what did you say?
You want a fair share? ā Nicky exploded, shifting unsteadily in her chair as her husband announced he was ātiredā of his monotonous life and wanted to live his life like a free man.
John smirked. āOh, Nicky!
Itās not like you didnāt see it coming. Come on.
We both know thereās nothing left between us. I donāt want to spend the rest of my life sulking with you.
I want to live. Like a free man.
<
And I will find someone ā beautiful and gorgeousā¦. whoās not a dead goat like you!
So, yes, I am divorcing you. ā
āAnd you think I will let you off the hook so easily? You wish, John!
ā Nicky snarled. āYou want to live like a free man, donāt you?
Well, guess what? I am not going to sign the divorce papers, and you are not getting a single penny, let alone any share!
ā āYou canāt do that, Nicky!
If you donāt sign the papers of your own volition, I will compel you to the point where you will have to! ā
Nicky laughed. āOh, poor Johnny!
What will you do? Bring a mistress home?
Those young girls youāve been playing around with? They wonāt clean and cook for you like I did, John!
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.
And you think youāre going to get away with it? Never!
ā āWell then,ā John paused, looking at his wristwatch.
āI donāt think I have a way out. I am leaving for a trip to Mexico in one hour.
And I guess Iāll 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.
āLetās see if youād 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 doesnāt have money?
Have a good time, honey,ā he said, mocking her. āIām looking forward to my time in Mexico!
ā āWhat?
How the hell did youā¦That had my savings too, John! How dare you use it without discussing it with me?
ā āI knew you would create a ruckus over divorce Nicky.
And so, thatās how I had it planned! ā
With that, John went to their bedroom, packed his stuff, and walked out of their house, leaving behind the divorce papers for Nicky. āIf you donāt want to live with the consequences of your decision, sign it as quickly as possible.
Otherwise, your life will be nothing but hell from now on! ā he added before leaving.

Three months later⦠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.
Her jaw dropped to the floor when she saw John at the doorstep. āWhat are you doing here?
Arenāt you supposed to be in Mexico? ā
āOh, Nicky! I am sorry, I am so sorry for what I did!
ā he begged, getting on his knees. āPlease forgive me.
I was wrong to leave you. I shouldnāt have done that.
ā Nicky was stunned.
āJohn, whatās the matter? Okay, calm down.
Letās go inside and talk, alright? ā
āOh, Nicky! Where do I even start?
I met this young girl, Maddison,ā he began once theyād settled inside. āShe was gorgeous, and I thought she loved me.
We spent two months in Mexico togetherā¦But she was a con! She robbed me!
She took all my money and everything! We were living in her modest apartment in Mexico together.
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.
But every nightā¦ā he cleared his throat. āWe never slept together because every time her kids would come into the room and sheād make an excuse and leave with them.
She said she would marry me, but it was all fakeā¦she ā she was just after the money! ā
āOh, dear! ā Nicky gasped.
āThatās terribleā¦terribleā¦You know whatā¦. ā She had started to speak when the doorbell rang.
āJust a minute, John. Let me see whoās there,ā Nicky said as he walked to the door.
āWhoās there, Nicky? ⦠What ā What are you doing here?
ā John was taken aback when he noticed Maddison on their porch. āNicky!
Sheās the one! Sheās the one who robbed me!
ā The two women exchanged glances and burst out laughing.
āAll right, John! I know everything.
Meet Mandy ā or as you said ā Maddison. She is my friendās daughter.
A single mother of two who helped me gather evidence against my infidel husband! I had warned you, John, that you would regret it!
I tracked down your hotel using Facebook and called Maddison for help. This was all a trap, honey, and Iām so glad you fell for it!
ā āWhat?
ā John exploded. āYou did all of this on purpose?
! You will regret it, Nicky!
You will! ā
āNo, John,ā Nicky yelled. āYou will be the one at a loss this time.
Take your luggage and leave my house immediately! And yes, Iām divorcing you, you jerk!
And Iāll see to it that you donāt get a single cent! So get up and leave!
GET OUT OF MY HOUSE NOW! ā
John took his luggage and left the house, mumbling something Nicky didnāt 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.
A few months later, John and Nicky were divorced, and when their children learned about what had transpired, they took their motherās side and ridiculed their father for stooping so low. What can we learn from this story?
You canāt escape karma. John cheated on Nicky and vowed to make her life a living hell, but karma caught up with him.
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.
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 sonās grave and met his carbon copy there.
