Amy and Dan had been together since middle school, married young, and eventually divorced after years of fighting and suspected infidelity. Even though she tried to move on, Amy never fully let go of her feelings for him. Three years after their divorce, they ran into each other by accident, and seeing him with another woman sparked emotions she thought were gone. When Dan later explained the woman was just someone he was helping, Amy agreed to meet him — and the old love rushed back instantly.

The two slowly rekindled their relationship. Dan was affectionate, attentive, and seemed genuinely changed. He moved back in, and for the first time in years, Amy felt happy. Then one morning, he surprised her with a spa day, followed by a romantic dinner at a fancy restaurant. They talked about their past, their future, and even having children. Everything felt perfect — until Dan suddenly got on one knee, pulled out a box, and asked her to marry him again.

Amy was overwhelmed with joy… until Dan opened the box. Instead of a ring, there was a note that read, “You’ve been pranked!” He burst out laughing, proudly calling it a joke and insisting he wasn’t ready to remarry her. Amy, shocked and humiliated, slapped him and walked out. The magical day she expected turned into one of the worst moments of her life.

Dan tried calling and texting for weeks afterward, but Amy finally understood the truth: he hadn’t changed at all. The prank revealed the same immaturity and disrespect that ruined their marriage the first time. Heartbroken but wiser, she realized she divorced him for a reason — and vowed never to step into the same river twice.
