The following joke has been around for years and it’s safe to say that it’s a timeless classic that make us laugh again and again.
Just like comfort food for the soul, jokes uplift us and put a smile on our face. We hope this one will make your day.

One morning, the wife found a note on the coffee table. She hoped it was a heartwarming message from her husband of many years, but she was wrong. In fact, he revealed his affair with his young secretary.

“My dear wife, you will surely understand that I have certain needs that you, being 57 years old, can no longer satisfy. I am very happy with you, and I value you as a good wife.

“Therefore, after reading this letter, I hope that you will not wrongfully interpret the fact that I will be spending the evening with my 19-year-old secretary at the Comfort Inn hotel. Please don’t be upset—I shall be home before midnight,” the note read.

That evening, he came home to a note from his wife that left him in a state of shock.

“My dear husband, I received your letter and thank you for your honesty about me being 57 years old. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that you are also 57 years old.

“As you know, I am a math teacher at our local college. I would like to inform you that while you read this, I will be at the Hotel Fiesta with Michael, one of my students, who is also the assistant tennis coach. He is young, virile, and, like your secretary, is 19 years old.

“As a successful businessman who has an excellent knowledge of math, you will understand that we are in the same situation, although with one small difference—19 goes into 57 more times than 57 goes into 19. Therefore, I will not be home until sometime tomorrow.”

Well, isn’t this a brilliant comeback coming from a 57-year-old math teacher?

Although this is just a joke, it highlights how the wife, through her sharp wit and intelligence, turned a potentially embarrassing situation into a moment of triumph, leaving her husband stunned. It’s also a celebration of those who navigate life’s challenges with a blend of grace and sass, showing that wit and wisdom remain timeless.
