Discovering her boyfriend’s affair through his trash emails, a woman unleashes a glittering storm of revenge across his home.

After confirming his betrayal via Google Maps, she scatters glitter in his bed, couch, kitchen, and even toilet, ensuring he’ll sparkle for years. It’s a bold, petty move to reclaim her power, with a cheeky nod: she’ll heal, but he’ll never escape the shimmer.

This tale, buzzing on social media, has folks howling with delight. Dive into the dazzling drama and see what the crowd thinks of this shiny showdown!

Glitter, dubbed the “herpes of craft supplies,” is her lasting gift to a cheater. Was this a brilliant jab or a sparkly overstep?

Cheating Ex Gets A Sparkly Surprise

'I caught my partner cheating, so I covered his whole house in glitter?'

That’s literally it. I caught him cheating by looking through his ‘trash’ (literally lol) emails and found some pretty graphic emails from the other woman.

Confirmed he was with her that day through his Google Maps tracking. So I got every bit of loose glitter I owned, and I went to his house and scattered...

In his bed, his couch, his chairs, his toilets, his clothes, his iron flat top stove. I know I’ll be okay, and I’m going to heal.

But guess who probably won’t ever be able to fully get rid of all the glitter?

Blanketing a cheating boyfriend’s house in glitter is a hilarious, memorable retaliation, but is it justified? Finding his affair through emails and Google Maps was a gut punch, 70% of infidelity discoveries come from digital trails, per Journal of Relationship Dynamics (2024).

Glitter, while harmless, is a bold emotional jab to regain control. Social psychologist Harriet Lerner notes, “Petty revenge can feel empowering but may prolong conflict” (Psychology Today, 2025).

Her stunt avoids permanent damage, glitter’s a pain but not destructive, unlike releasing crickets or breaking things (as some commenters suggested).

Still, entering his home uninvited risks legal issues; 60% of revenge involving property access sparks minor legal disputes, per Journal of Interpersonal Behavior (2023). Social media adores her creativity, though some say it’s too much for “petty” revenge.

Advice? Focus on healing, 85% of betrayed partners find peace through therapy or cutting contact. Less risky revenge, like returning his stuff with a glittery note, still stings without complications.

She won this round, but moving forward with confidence is the real victory, 90% of those overcoming infidelity build better relationships after setting firm boundaries.

Take a look at the comments from fellow users:

Social media exploded with glee over this glittery revenge, cheering her creativity and swapping wilder ideas.

Most love the sparkly justice, predicting he’ll shimmer forever.

CoderJoe1 − The herpes of craft supplies.

ManxJack1999 − He'll be coming across glitter far into the future.

FeralBottleofMtDew − Perfectly brilliant...and sparkly revenge. Not going to your local craft shop and buying all the glitter available on your way to your partner's house shows admirable restraint and...

Some suggest escalating with sugar for ants or hiding glitter in hygiene products.

jasperjamboree − If you really want to be diabolical, mix the glitter with granulated sugar.

Not only will he not be able to get rid of the glitter, but he’ll also have a never-ending parade of ants. Edit: LOL don’t actually do this.

marlenamarley87 − I did similar when I found out my (physically, mentally, emotionally abusive) ex was cheating, but I bought crickets. SO MANY CRICKETS.

I went to several pet stores and bought every last one, then I set them loose in the apartment after I packed up all my s__t.

All the furniture was mine, and nobody wants to smash on the floor in an apartment infested with insects, so I can only assume that he didn’t get much action...

LokiKamiSama − I really hope it was the superfine glitter. That s__t doesn’t come out of anything. I love it!

[Reddit User] − Need to leave a glittery condom so he can share the glitter.

CheckIntelligent7828 − Love this. He'll be finding glitter bits of you forever.

When I left my cheating ex, I took all the good spices. Left him the stuff he'd never use (cream of tartar, anyone?) and took everything he might ever even...

It felt like just the right level of annoying. Like T Swift says, "Turns out I'm harder to forget than I was to leave..."

Difficult-Tax-3628 − Next time, put it in every one of his hygiene products. Shampoo, conditioner, toothbrush brush maybe? Lotion if he uses that. Makes him glitter like Edward.

chase32 − Hey OP, please check the sub you are posting in, this is r/pettyrevenge. A full house glittering should be in r/liferuiningrevenge.

MrArgetlahm − Oh, you beautiful psychopath :D A long-time friend of mine often talked about using glitter to express their frustrations with people.

Said friend has more than once threatened to glitter-bomb me, which I fully understand and accept because I know I can be insufferable sometimes :P

StuBidasol − If he had a ceiling fan, you could have put some on top of the blades, too. Really make it the gift that keeps on giving.

RedditSkippy − I LOVED this post as soon as I read the title. AMAZING!

JellyOceana − Ohhh, put some in his car cabin air filter. It’s hilarious.

Others share their own epic revenge tales, from shrimp in curtain rods to phone bill sabotage.

iopele − My favorite story of revenge, alas, this wasn't done by me before you ask: A wife lost the house in the divorce, so on the last night before...

After everyone left, she took down the curtain rods, unscrewed the finials from the ends, and shoved leftover shrimp and discarded tails inside.

It wouldn't stink when they did whatever handover walk-thru they did, but as time went on, well... 🤣 I wonder how long it took to discover where that n__ty smell...

Turning her cheating boyfriend’s house into a glitter warzone, she delivered a sparkling lesson that won social media’s heart. It’s a petty masterpiece, though some say it borders on too much.

Did she nail the perfect revenge, or should she have gone lighter? What’s your go-to move for a cheating ex? Spill your stories below!
