A Saudi woman who wanted to joke with her husband got the shock of her life when she learned her joke has only made him marry again.
The unidentified wife wanted to wish her husband a happy new Muslim Hijri year but decided to mix the greeting with a heavy joke.
“She texted his mobile saying ‘I am leaving and you won’t see my face again…happy new year,” Aljazeera daily said on Tuesday.
“Her husband, who works far away, thought she was serious…he consulted with friends, who advised him to get married again….he listened to them and married…a few days later, his first wife phoned him to make sure he is ok only to find out what he has done…she was shocked and told him she was just joking.”
But the husband replied that he was not joking, the paper added, without identify the couple, who live in the central town of Onaiza.
So much for those vaunted "Muslim family values"...

Is it a funny joke then to tell your husband, whose thousands of miles away, you're leaving them, on New Year's Eve?
I don't get it.
Where did he find the second wife to meet and marry her within a few short days? Wow, that's good work if it was match.com - hope they got a testimonial.

I guess when you don't get out of the house much anything seems like a funny joke.

How come the husband didn't call his wife to confront her about the text. I guess that's what happen when your husband really wanted to split up but couldn't find any valid reason to argue.
I remember my dad sent a prank text sayin that he was imprisoned for some reason I wasn't able to digest. We were worried to death so I called in a flash, just to find out that he was joking. I sigh.

that is some sick 'joke'. What a psycho thing to text a husband who is away on new years eve! She deserves what she gets IMO, although it is all very unbelievable.
