A man once wrote a letter to his wife, explaining that he had certain needs she could no longer meet at her age. He expressed his love and appreciation for her but announced his plan to spend the evening with his 19-year-old secretary at a local hotel. He assured her he’d be home by midnight, thinking his explanation would prevent any misunderstandings.
When he returned home, he found a note from his wife on the dining table. She thanked him for his honesty but reminded him that he, too, was 57 years old. Using his own logic, she pointed out that while 19 goes into 57 multiple times, 57 doesn’t go into 19 even once. With a touch of humor, she informed him she wouldn’t be home until the next day. Her brilliant response not only matched his boldness but also highlighted the equality in their relationship, leaving him with a lesson he wouldn’t soon forget.
