His Pregnant Wife Said She Cheated With Her Boss And He Might Not Be The Father Of Their Baby As A Prank, And Then She Questioned His Trust When He Fell For It
This 31-year-old man and his wife, Lisa, have been together since college. Right now, she’s also seven months pregnant with their very first baby.
Things are rarely dull in their relationship, either, since Lisa is quite witty and loves playing jokes on him.
It helps that she was a theatre kid, meaning she is great at acting and “selling” fake stories. He would frequently fall for her pranks in the past simply because she was so convincing, and he was quite gullible.
After being with Lisa for a long time, though, he can usually tell when she’s messing with him.
“But she’s upped the antics over the years, and so she can occasionally get me to believe one of her jokes,” he explained.
That’s exactly what happened just yesterday when he got home from work. He walked into their home and found his wife with tears in her eyes. Then, she told him they needed to discuss something serious.
He was immediately concerned and sat down with Lisa. He asked what was wrong several times, too, and his wife kept saying it was hard to talk about. Plus, she claimed to be “terrified” that he’d leave her.
“I kept pressing, and she told me she had an affair with her boss several months ago and wasn’t sure if the baby was mine,” he revealed.
“I asked if she was serious, and she said she was 100% serious and started crying even harder.”

He quickly stood up and began pacing around to gather his thoughts. Yet, a few minutes later, Lisa randomly burst into laughter and stated the whole thing was just a joke.
He was understandably livid and pointed out how it wasn’t funny in the slightest to joke about cheating or their child not being his. And rather than being apologetic, Lisa got upset.
She was apparently “offended” that he would even believe she’d cheat on him. Next, his wife got teary-eyed again and asked why he didn’t trust her!
“I asked why I would trust her after she pulled that prank on me, managed to cry telling me about it, and continued with the prank, even though I was visibly upset,” he recalled.
Lisa still didn’t see the issue and swore it was “harmless.” She accused him of blowing the situation out of proportion and continued asking why he didn’t trust her.
Eventually, he’d had enough and needed to get some space from his wife. He went to a bar and has been staying away from home ever since, despite Lisa attempting to call him several times. He knows that she was truly joking, but he’s upset with his wife for taking the prank so far, especially by adding the crying.
“I also was clearly upset (as anyone would be), and she should have stopped it as soon as she realized I was actually falling for it,” he vented.
“Usually, Lisa’s jokes are funny, but this one really got to me for some reason.”
At the same time, he doesn’t want to stress his wife out right now, mainly because she is “very pregnant.” This has left him wondering if feeling furious and requiring space is justified or not.
How would you feel if your spouse kept going with a “prank” after seeing it made you extremely upset? Did she have a right to question his trust after putting on such a performance?
