My husband Dave was so comfortable not working that he made no effort to find employment. When he pushed me to my breaking point, I decided to get revenge and force him to change.
Hi everyone, I’m Amanda, a 45-year-old nurse. I work 12-hour shifts and handle all household chores, while my 47-year-old husband Dave lounges at home. Despite being unemployed for over a year, he mostly played video games.
One Friday, after an exhausting day, I ordered pizza on my way home. To my shock, I found the pizza box empty, with Dave sprawled on the couch surrounded by crumbs. “Hey, I was hungry,” he said. “I left you the crusts.” Furious, I devised a plan.
The next morning, I made his favorite breakfast, served it with a smile, and left, pretending to run errands. Instead, I went to my sister’s place, a tech whiz, and we set up a surprise. That night, every website Dave visited redirected to a message: “This is what happens when you treat your wife like a servant.”
The next morning, Dave was livid. “What did you do to the internet?” he yelled. I replied calmly, “Now you’ll understand how it feels.” For a week, he struggled. I stopped cooking and cleaning for him.
Finally, he apologized and promised to start contributing more. Now, Dave helps out and is job hunting. Sometimes, a little petty revenge is needed to set things right. Our relationship turned a corner, and I’m hopeful for the future.
