His Husband Buttered Their Bathroom Floor As A Prank And Recorded Him Falling To “Go Viral” Online, But Now He’s Considering A Divorce Over This
Three weeks ago, on a Monday morning, this 29-year-old got out of bed at 6 a.m. to get ready for work.
He took a shower, and everything was normal until he tried to step out of the shower. Immediately, he slipped and fell onto the floor, which was slippery and greasy.
Once he fell, his 32-year-old husband ran out of their bedroom holding a camera, filming the entire thing while laughing hysterically.
“I wanted an explanation, and he said it was just a prank. He had spread butter on the floor for me to fall down because his brilliant friends thought it was a great idea to play pranks on their spouses to post them online and ‘go viral’ (one of the idiots even pushed his pregnant wife into a pool,” he said.
This stunned him into silence, and he felt self-conscious and unsafe. He thought about how his husband should support him, not mock him.
After getting up and leaving the bathroom, he didn’t fight with his husband or speak to him at all. Instead, he finished getting ready to leave.
“He even told me (before leaving), ‘You might be angry now, but I promise, I will compensate you tonight.’ Throughout the day, I started analyzing the event, and I found it childish, disrespectful, and blatantly stupid,” he explained.
“I mean, thank heavens, nothing terrible happened, but what if I hadn’t grabbed the curtain and my head or neck had hit the bathtub? I could be dead, and I’m not joking. A severe head injury can be life-threatening.”
He would never dream of humiliating or potentially harming his husband like that because he has respect for him, deeply loves him, and cares for him.

Most of the time, his husband is intelligent and logical, but with this “prank,” his husband acted like a child.
After work, because he still didn’t want to see or talk to his husband, he went to his father’s house so that he could calm down.
He hasn’t returned back to the home he shares with his husband in three weeks. Understandably, he is still furious with his husband.
Since he didn’t have a chance to grab any of his stuff from his house before going over to his father’s house, he asked his father to pack a bag for him so that he didn’t have to see his husband.
When his father showed up at the house, his husband wouldn’t let him in at first, but eventually, he opened the door.
Over the past three weeks, his husband has been calling and texting him to say that he’s sorry, pleading for him to come home.
They have been married for three years, and this incident has made him wonder if they should end their marriage.
Normally, his husband is a kind and supportive partner, but he doesn’t think he could look at his husband like he used to. There’s no way the damage could be undone, in his opinion.
This is the most reckless and idiotic thing his husband has ever done.
“Now, everyone (besides my dad) is telling me that ‘It’s time to forgive because he didn’t do it with the intention of hurting you, and perhaps he didn’t see beyond the consequences and didn’t think it could be life-threatening,'” he shared.
His friends and family, including his mother, also told him that he was being overdramatic because his husband was just playing a joke on him.
However, he pointed out that his husband is a grown man, not a 6-year-old kid who can’t possibly understand the dangerous nature of this “prank.”
Plus, his husband is a doctor, so he is fully aware of how serious a head injury could be.
His father is the only one who understands his perspective and why he’s so hurt by his husband’s actions.
Even though he acknowledged that it’s not as if his husband wanted him to die from potential injuries, it’s clear that his husband had no respect for his life since he put him in such a dangerous situation in the first place.
What advice would you give him?
