A man was wholeheartedly in love with his wife, and when she passed after 60 years he was devastated.
For the next 20 years, he pined and pined and couldn’t wait to rejoin her in heaven. At last he passed away, and as soon as he landed in heaven he started running everywhere looking for finally found her. He screams out, “there you are darling, I have missed you so much!”
She stops and stares and then turns around and begins sprinting in the other direction. “Oh heck no, The contract was only for life!”
Explanation: The humor lies in the wife’s reaction. After the man spends decades longing to reunite, she reveals her perspective with the punchline: their “contract” was only for life, not eternity. The contrast between his devotion and her comedic rejection creates a hilariously ironic twist.
