Having a good sense of humor is something everyone looks for in a partner and is definitely a trait that becomes more important over time. Looks can fade and wealth might disappear but being able to make your other half laugh until they cry? Priceless.

However, one woman has revealed how her husband pulled a prank on her that ended up costing her over £8,000 ($10,000) and potentially her marriage. Sharing the nightmare on social media she explained that her 29 year old husband likes to think of himself as a comedian, reports the Mirror.

She wrote: "This is the dumbest thing that's ever happened to me in my entire life. My husband and I were on our boat together and we were just relaxing and talking and having a good morning.

"All of a sudden, my husband gets really serious and tells me 'baby, I'm so sorry but I have to tell you something. I'm so sorry, please forgive me, I had an affair'. For context, my husband thinks he's a comedian. He says dumb stuff all the time but he's never joked about our marriage or relationship or cheating, ever. The way he said it, I fully believed him.

"I was blinded by rage and hurt and I'm not a confrontational person at all so all I did was stand up, take my rings off, and throw them into the ocean. I don't even know why I did it, it was just the first thing I thought of doing.

"My husbands jaw hit the floor. He immediately started to yell at me that it was a joke, a prank, he wasn't serious and I was an idiot. My jaw dropped then too. I yelled at him too and called him the same. I cried too, realizing I just threw my lovely and sentimental rings into the ocean."

In the aftermath of the incident, the 27 year old reveals she and her husband have been in disagreement over who is to blame, with him arguing she overreacted to his 'prank'. She added: "He says I'm the a**hole, I say he's the the a**hole, and I have no idea who's right. Yes admittedly I threw over £8,000 worth of rings into the ocean and we will never find them again- but he looked me in my eyes and told me he had an affair. I am upset about my rings. I've apologised for throwing them. But I just don't feel like the a**hole."

The infuriating story shared on Reddit prompted swift backlash against the husband, with people labelling him a joker, and not in a flattering way. One irate user responded: "Ask him to explain what part of it was supposed to be 'funny'. The breaking your heart part? The 'I want to see you cry' part? The 'let me put you under a terrible scenario to see how you breakdown' part? None of it was meant to be funny, if the rings are lost, they were lost on his own goddamn immaturity."
