When this woman and her ex-husband initially tied the knot, they both agreed that they were not going to have any children. She simply never wanted kids, and her ex felt the same.

But, just four years later, he changed his mind. And when she wouldn’t go back on their agreement to start a family with her ex, he divorced her three years ago.

“I’m not really a big believer in divorce. I was ready to be married for the rest of our lives,” she recalled.

“We had a good marriage, but I guess he didn’t love me that much if he picked kids that didn’t even exist over me.”

Once they split up, though, she and her ex went on to lead wildly different lives. While she began to thrive, he started to seriously struggle.

She actually finished pursuing higher education and landed a high-paying job in the healthcare field. She’s genuinely happy with her life now, too, and is interested in settling down with someone new soon.

Her ex-husband, on the other hand, practically immediately remarried another woman following their divorce. He also got his second wife pregnant quickly and currently has a total of two kids.

Just yesterday, her ex showed up crying on her doorstep as well, and she learned all about how his picture-perfect vision of having children didn’t pan out as planned.

For some context, when she noticed he was in tears, she figured something terrible had happened, which is why she let him inside. At that point, her ex began rambling about how awful his life was.

“He apparently hates his two kids; one of them is disabled and maybe autistic, and he has no money due to the kid being so expensive,” she revealed.

“His wife yells at him all the time, and she got fat after having kids and doesn’t want to lose the weight.”

On top of that, she heard that her ex couldn’t go anywhere anymore and barely got any romance in the bedroom. So, he opened up about how he wanted to divorce his new wife and regretted ever leaving her.

Still, she couldn’t have imagined what her ex-husband would say next – because he actually claimed to have “learned his lesson” and asked if she would take him back!

“I couldn’t help but laugh at him. It was so pitiful. His audacity also kind of astounded me,” she admitted.

She proceeded to tell her ex that he is not a “catch,” given the fact that he has two kids to raise and doesn’t show any loyalty to his partners.

“And I definitely won’t take him back, and maybe this was karma for divorcing me,” she added.

Perhaps unsurprisingly, her ex was livid afterward, and he accused her of being a total jerk. He supposedly thought she’d be more supportive and reject him more kindly if that’s what she chose to do.

Now, in the wake of this totally unexpected confrontation, she’s been left wondering if laughing in her crying ex-husband’s face and saying his suffering was karma really was a low blow.

How would you have reacted if your ex did something like this? Should she feel bad or not?
