My husband threw all my paintings away. I decided to give him a real lesson now

When I discovered Tim had thrown away my paintings, it felt like a piece of my soul had been ripped away. Each stroke of paint, each color combination, each image on the canvas represented hours of joy, frustration, and fulfillment. But to him, they were nothing but “junk.”

A Moment of Realization

That evening, exhausted from work, I decided to revisit an old painting that I believed had more potential. The idea of reworking it filled me with a rare excitement. However, my anticipation turned to horror when I descended into the basement, only to find it empty. The walls were bare, the shelves clean, and my paintings—gone. I stood there in shock, a cold sense of loss washing over me. How could he do this? How could he erase a part of my life so carelessly?

Confrontation and Anger

I stormed upstairs, fury bubbling inside me. There he was, lounging on the couch, engrossed in a football game, a bag of chips in hand. “Tim! Where are my f***ing paintings?” I demanded, my voice shaking with rage.

He glanced at me nonchalantly and said, “Oh, honey, relax. You should be thanking me for taking out that junk.”

For Illustrative purpose only

His dismissive attitude was the final straw. I exploded in anger, yelling at him, but he remained unbothered, barely acknowledging my distress. It was clear he didn’t understand or care about the pain he’d caused.

The Plan for Revenge

As I stood there, seething, a plan began to form in my mind. If he could so casually discard something that meant so much to me, then he deserved a taste of his own medicine. I decided to retaliate in a way that would hit him where it hurt the most.

For Illustrative purpose only

The next day, I waited until Tim left for work. Fueled by a sense of righteous indignation, I methodically gathered all his cherished belongings—his prized football memorabilia, his vintage record collection, even his favorite recliner. I loaded everything into the back of my car and drove to the nearest charity shop. Watching the workers unload his precious items, I felt a twisted sense of satisfaction. Let’s see how he likes it, I thought.

Maybe You Didn’t Know This: You Should Never Eat Cucumbers and Tomatoes in the Same Salad

While all natural fruits and vegetables are healthy for you, did you know that some should never be combined? Cucumbers and tomatoes, for instance.

Tomatoes and cucumbers are very healthful. They are abundant in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and water. But you shouldn’t eat them together! When preparing a salad, Ayurveda says it’s critical to know how long each component takes to digest.

Vegetables with varying rates of digestion can be difficult to combine. Food fermentation may occur in your stomach if the lighter ingredient passes through your intestines at the same time as the other begins to digest. Toxins, sluggish digestion, and starch and sugar fermentation may arise from this. This will ruin your food and increase your risk of stomach pain, bloating, and gas.

Other than cucumbers and tomatoes, there are other combinations of foods to be careful with. Here are few to keep in mind:

Fruits after eating: Fruits take longer to digest and if they are left in the stomach for an extended period of time, they can cause acid reflux and other digestive problems.

Cheese and meat: Limit the amount of protein in your meal. No more than one kind per meal.

Even though it’s a common combination, macaroni and cheese (or macaroni and meat) might create stomach problems since carbs and proteins breakdown at different rates.

Cheese and vegetables together can make you more prone to bloating.

Orange juice might damage the enzyme required to break down carbohydrates, so avoid eating bread or noodles with it.

Watermelon and melons should be consumed on their own; do not mix them with other fruits.

Milk and bananas together can cause digestive delays.

Yogurt and fruits are a popular breakfast combination, but they can alter your gut flora and slow down digestion.
