MY HUSBAND CANCELED OUR 10TH ANNIVERSARY TRIP TO TAKE HIS MOM ON VACATION – SO I TOOK REVENGE IN A WAY HE NEVER SAW COMING
I worked my tail off all year to make sure our house payments were covered. By the time vacation season rolled around, I was desperate for a break. The trip to Maui was my idea—something to recharge after months of stress. I planned every detail and split the costs 50/50 with my husband, Wade.
A week before our flight, Wade invited his mom over for dinner. While I was serving the meal, my MIL started griping about how hard her life had been. Apparently, she was "so exhausted" and needed "a fancy getaway." I mean, really? She's retired. She's never watched the kids, not even once.
And then Wade hit me with, "Why don't you let Mom take your ticket?"
I just froze.
"I worked my butt off all year to save for this trip! I'm exhausted, Wade. I need this break."
But oh no, that wasn't good enough for Wade. According to him, "a lot of women work these days," and apparently, that was my choice, so I shouldn't blame him. "You're making this into a big deal," he said. "This is about my mom right now."
That was it. The last straw. I was done. So yeah, I transferred my ticket to MIL's name. But it wasn't me giving up—I had a plan. I just needed Wade out of the house long enough to get everything ready.
Sure enough, a few hours after their plane landed, my phone buzzed. Wade was on the line, yelling, "WHAT DID YOU DO?! IT'S SO SELFISH!"⤵️
