Is It Wise to Ask Your Wife About Her Past Partners?

Relationships are filled with questions—some lighthearted, some deeply personal. But is it ever a good idea to ask your wife how many men she has been with? One man in this hilarious story decided to do just that, leading to a comical and unexpected twist.

Read on until the end—you won’t regret it!

A Common but Risky Question

In many relationships, curiosity about a partner’s past is inevitable. Conversations range from hypotheticals—like how one might react to a major life event—to deeply personal inquiries about past romantic experiences. Some questions, however, may be best left unasked.

A particular question that often arises in relationships, especially in their early stages, is about the number of previous partners. While some couples navigate this discussion smoothly, others find it to be a minefield of emotions and misunderstandings.

The joke below takes this common scenario and flips it on its head—resulting in a punchline you won’t see coming!

The Joke: A Husband’s Curiosity Backfires

A newlywed couple is lying in bed, enjoying their first few days of marriage. As they bask in their love, the husband suddenly turns to his wife with a question that has been lingering in his mind.

“Honey,” he asks, “how many men have you been with before me?”

His wife, however, remains silent, staring blankly at the ceiling.

The husband, thinking she didn’t hear him, repeats, “I just want to know, love. You can tell me. How many men have you been with?”

Still, his wife stays quiet, her gaze unwavering.

Now sensing her discomfort, the husband immediately backtracks. “I’m sorry,” he says, “I didn’t mean to make you uncomfortable. I just thought we could have an open and trusting relationship…”

Yet, his wife remains silent, eyes still locked on the ceiling.

Feeling guilty, the husband tries to comfort her. “It’s okay, sweetheart. You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to.”

Determined to reassure her, he pulls her close, gently caressing her and whispering sweet nothings, showering her with love and kisses.

Finally, after a long pause, the wife breaks her silence. She sighs, turns her gaze toward him, and with an exasperated expression blurts out:

“Oh, come on! You’ve made me lose count!”
