It's not a common trope in literature overall. But in some works that explore the darker side of human relationships, it can be found. In these stories, the hubby's surprise can be a catalyst for various things. It might lead to him seeking revenge, or it could cause him to question his own worth and what he did wrong in the relationship. It also often delves into the wife's motives for having a lover, which can be due to dissatisfaction in the marriage, a search for excitement, or other complex reasons.
Well, it could end with the hubby confronting the wife and her lover, and then a big fight breaks out. Or, he might choose to forgive his wife if he really loves her and wants to work through it. There are also cases where the situation is so scandalous that it affects their social standing, and they all have to move away to start anew. In some stories, the hubby might even end up befriending the lover, though this is quite rare, after realizing that there were problems in the relationship that led to this situation.
Yes. For instance, if the brother is a bookworm and has an extensive library. The wife might share him with her hubby, and the hubby could borrow books from the brother, leading to interesting discussions between the two men about literature and knowledge.
She can share exciting adventure stories from her own experiences. For example, if she went on a solo trip and had some near - miss or amazing encounters, like seeing a rare animal up close in the wild. This kind of story can make her hubby feel excited and interested in her experiences, and arouse his sense of adventure as well.
Well, it depends. In some more open - minded and progressive relationship models, these stories might not be so controversial. If the couple has a clear understanding and agreement about such situations, and it's part of their consensual exploration of their relationship, then it may not be seen as bad. But in general society with more conservative values, it would likely be controversial as it defies the common perception of relationship propriety.
In a sports competition, the hubby might be facing a tough opponent. The wife watches as he struggles at first but then he uses the pressure to his advantage. He gets'screwed' by the opponent's initial attacks but then turns it around to win, showing his resilience.
One possible story could be that the wife's brother is an artist and she shares his talent with her hubby. For example, the brother is a great painter and the wife arranges for him to give some painting lessons to her husband, which helps the hubby discover a new passion for art.
A wife told a story about how her hubby learned to knit just to make her a warm scarf for the winter. He spent hours watching tutorials and practicing, and the final scarf was full of love. This shows his dedication and thoughtfulness towards her.
Definitely not appropriate. Privacy is a fundamental aspect of any relationship. The hubby may have shared things with his wife in the confidence of their relationship. By sharing those stories, the wife is breaking that trust. It could also make the hubby feel exposed and vulnerable, which is not healthy for the relationship. This kind of behavior might stem from a lack of respect for boundaries or a need for attention, but it's wrong either way.
One story could be that a wife shares her hubby's cooking skills with her family. For example, if the hubby is an excellent cook, she might invite her family over for dinner often so they can enjoy his delicious meals.
