My Husband Came Home with Another Woman and Said She’d Be His Second Wife—
What Surprised Us Both Was My One Condition

When my husband Jack came home with Claire, announcing she’d be his second wife, I thought it was a joke. But he was serious, claiming it was practical—she’d help with chores, better than a mistress. Months earlier, Jack had been acting odd, talking about “alternative lifestyles” and hinting at needing extra help around the house. I ignored the red flags, thinking it was another fad. Last week, he brought Claire in, and I was stunned. Instead of arguing, I agreed—but only if
I could have a second husband. Jack was floored, arguing it was unacceptable, but I held firm, pointing out his double standards. Claire left, and Jack backtracked, begging me to reconsider. I was done. I created a dating profile, packed my bags, moved out, and filed for divorce. Jack’s “practical” plan fell apart—Claire stopped responding, and he was left alone to face the consequences of his actions.
