The wife with 9 months left to live asks her husband if she can sleep with her ex just one last time.
A bereaved husband has stated that his dying wife has made a very particular request.
Because he thought he had “no one I could tell,” he resorted to Reddit to discuss the horrible scenario.
The husband states that he was originally “devastated” after learning that his wife of ten years has a “terminal disease.”
He claims she was only expected to live for ‘nine months’ at best.
“I don’t remember life without her and I don’t know what I’m going to do when she’s gone. I have been doing my best to make the last days of her life good and grant whatever wish I can,” he said.

“The doctors said that she was likely to need a wheelchair in 4 or 5 months, then by month 8 she’ll be bedridden for the last few weeks. That’s if she doesn’t decline faster.”
As if the situation wasn’t awful enough, his wife sat him down and revealed her last wish was to ‘have sex with a past partner of hers’.
I mean, wow.
He explained: “I of course was shocked and when I asked why the f**k she wants that.
“So basically she thinks that her most physically compatible and satisfying lover was him.
“She gave a whole monologue about how sex sometimes is just physical and how emotionally fulfilling sex is with me but it was bulls**t to get to that point.”
The man continued: “So now I’m left with this, deny my dying wife a wish for my own ego, or let her go f**k another man who she feels was better.
“Honestly, I’m so p***ed off and betrayed that she asked this of me.
“I feel like I’m put in a position where I have to say yes because she’s dying.
“I know what I want to say, but I don’t know if that’s right. I’m so hurt that sex with an ex was apparently so good that she needs to do it once before she dies. I just hate everything about this.
“I’m really not sure what to do.”
Let’s just say fellow Redditors were pretty savage in the comments section.
“If this is a real story, well then, just pack her stuff and let her live with her ex for the rest of her time,” one person said.
As a wife with 9 months left to live asks her husband if she can sleep with her ex just one last time, another added: “Sorry but her illness is not an excuse to treat you like s**t. That is incredibly insulting to you and your relationship.”
Someone else also raged: “This seems like a very odd request to bring to you without any leg work or preparation.
“That she would significantly risk blowing up her marriage and end-of-life companionship and care for sex with someone she isn’t in contact with and doesn’t know would still even entertain the thought of intimacy with her.”
Honestly, it really is an unfathomable situation.
