Today, I went to a comedy show, expecting to feel better about a difficult relationship. Instead, I saw a performance written by the girl who loves my husband, about my husband, and how she loves him. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I was feeling down so my husband took me to a comedy show. This comedian saw me, heckled me for a full two minutes, then returned to me a further three times during his act to mock me again, zeroing in on every one of my insecurities until I left crying, feeling worse than ever. FML
Today, to cheer my girlfriend up after her mother died a week ago, I took her to a comedy club. The comedian's theme for the night happened to be mother-daughter relationships. FML
Today, I realised I may need to work on my marriage when I saw my husband in public, laughing and smiling with his coworkers, then when he saw me his smile disappeared and he stood up like a tired old man to come and speak to me. FML
Today, after breaking up with my boyfriend, some of my friends decided to take me to a comedy club for a girls night. My friend's jealous husband decided he had to come along, then decided to invite my other friends' boyfriends. I ended up being the seventh wheel on a night meant to cheer me up. FML
Today, I bought my girlfriend two tickets to a Broadway show that was coming through town she really wanted to see. I couldn't attend with her due to work so she said she would take her mom. I found out later she took her ex. Now they're back together, and I paid for the date that made it happen. FML
Today, I went all out for my husband on our anniversary. I planned meals, took him to a stage show, and got him a bottle of cologne he loves. He was moody, distant, and at one point crying. Why? He found out his ex-wife is getting married today and he couldn’t stop thinking about her. FML
Today, I went to a comedy show with my mom, and they asked the audience members to yell out their problems as ideas for an improv skit. My mom yelled, "My daughter can't get a boyfriend!" FML
Today, I met my wife's other husband. FML
Today, I spilled my heart out to a guy by showing him one of my poetry journals. He read through it and said, "Wow, I feel sorry for the guy you wrote about." The poems were all about how I loved him. FML
Today, my son invited me to his first standup comedy gig. I accepted, only to later suffer through an hour of the worst jokes I've heard in my entire life. It was so bad, he made Dane Cook look like a comic genius, and I had to resist heckling him. Hours later, I still feel vaguely suicidal. FML

How do you not know what comedian is performing and you paid to go see her,sounds like a bit of purposeful self pity.

The joke is on her. He loves you and you alone, right? Doesn't sound like a very funny act.

Did you miss the part about "difficult relationship"? It kinda implies the romance is on the rocks.

Did I need to wrap my "right?" with the HTML sarcasm tags?

Did she directly use your husband's name? You should have gone full heckler on her!

Maybe she didn't know about the girl, or if she did, didn't know her name?

It could have been a show with multiple comedians; I've been to those 'comedy hour' type shows where each comedian is given 5-10 minutes to perform, and I definitely didn't know who most of them were.

It could've been a local comedy thing. You don't know the whole story, so I'm waiting to see if OP comments to clear things up.

And even if she did know, she has a right to know what's going on.

Maybe she didn't know what the show was going to be about. Or maybe she suspected but didn't know for certain that her husband is cheating on her or who it was with.

How rude can people be, that bitch obviously knows he's taken, leave him alone. It's not like there are billions of other guys

Hey, hang in there. Sure, she "loves" him. But you're his wife. Your love and commitment to your husband far supersede anything she could ever come up with. Hope everything works out.
