She thought her prank would work, but things don’t go as planned
The scheme
Julie began writing again : “Nevertheless, our love is drifting apart, which has left me a sour taste in my mouth. If I am writing this letter to you, it is because I cannot bring myself to tell you face to face. We are talking to each other less and less, I feel boxed-in. I want a divorce.”. Once she had finished writing the letter, Julie was set on seeing her husband reaction. Her plan would be to hide under somewhere in the house, determined that her husband would react like his whole world had just crumbled down around him, would he cry? The goal of her letter was to get the relationship moving again, to make her husband explain himself and reassure her. It is important to point out that Julie did not at all want to divorce her husband. She loved him too much.
