Several years ago, TikToker Heather (@heydeyzzz) found out that her husband was cheating on her with another woman, and he decided to leave Heather to go be with her. He moved out and stayed in a motel for a while until he could find an apartment.
In the meantime, Heather was responsible for packing up all his stuff and stacking the boxes in the living room. He doesn’t really deserve her help, but she has her reasons for wanting to do the work.
“I know how slow he is, and I didn’t want him taking all his time being in my house, packing up his stuff,” Heather explained.
“And I didn’t want to have to see him. I didn’t want to have to interact with him. I didn’t want his girlfriend coming over to the house to help him pack because I know he can’t do anything himself. I didn’t want him to steal anything that was mine. I don’t want him to take our cat.”
One day, he came over to grab a baseball cap, but Heather had already packed everything from his closet and dresser. She directed him to one of the boxes in the living room, so he could look for it on his own.
He rummaged through the boxes but was annoyed because he couldn’t find the baseball cap right away. He complained about how none of the boxes were labeled, so it was impossible to find anything.
After hearing his complaint, Heather decided to take action. She labeled the boxes very clearly for everyone to see. In black marker, she wrote the words “liar” and “cheater” on some of the boxes.
Other ones featured the phrases: “I chose my girlfriend over my wife,” and “I cheated on my wife of 10 years.” If he wanted labels, he got them!
Everyone praised Heather for her creative little act of revenge, and the comments section quickly turned into a support group for women who had dealt with cheating exes of their own.

“Mine refused to move, so I moved out. Since the cable was in my name, I turned it off and returned the box and remote on a Monday, the day his team was playing,” commented one user.
“I packed the ex’s stuff for the same reasons. Except [for] all of his dress shirts, I tied the sleeves in tight knots the whole way to the cuffs. And I did it wearing my stilettos. Felt totally powerful!” exclaimed another.
“Mine is a similar story. I also packed his things for similar reasons. I didn’t know about her yet, but he said he would take our bed, so I put all the bedding for it in a tote. Then, I took my body spray and sprayed all the linens down so he would get a nice big whiff of me when he opened it,” added a third.
