Bob was furious after reading a message he believed revealed his wife’s betrayal. He stormed into the bedroom, demanding answers. Shocked, his wife insisted she had no idea what he meant.
When Bob showed her the text, her confusion turned into laughter. She explained, “Honey, he’s talking about our dog! He’s been taking her out for walks while we’re at work. Remember? You asked him to help when you started working late.”
Bob froze, embarrassed. The vague wording had convinced him it was about an affair, when it was really just about their dog Bella.
The neighbor’s message, meant as a lighthearted confession, had completely misled him.
Later, Bob texted back: “Apologies, Bob. Misunderstood your message. Thanks for walking Bella. I owe you a drink.”
