I'd think he'd be suspicious after the lack of children for 15 years, but who am I to judge

The joke is that the husband and his friend went to Thailand and his friend transitioned. Now the old friend is "missing" and the husband is married to who that friend became.
Thanks, I'm dumb and thought she murdered his friend.
She kinda looks like someone who accidentally shot her husband in the head while joking around about shooting him in the head with a real gun.
I'm trans and thought she murdered his friend too lmao
I'm smart and I though she murdered his friend
I'm drunk and I though she murdered his friend
Smart and drunk are basically synonyms
I don't know if I'm smart or not, but I think part of the joke is that the husband doesn't recognize that his now-wife is his former best friend, and that unlikely circumstance kept me from understanding the joke even though I read the explanation. (Not the explanation in this thread but the more ambiguous one in the other thread.)
Im norwegian, and I was a question mark until I read the comments which made me transition into an exclamation mark.
I thought this was some boomer shit about spouses not listening to each other?
So many different interpretations in the comments.
I thought it was just that he didn't need a significant other because he was so close with his friend haha
This would also be a funny interpretation.
Not so dumb, given this is probably a screengrab from "you", and this character would definitely have murdered his friend
Ah, I thought that she kidnapped/killed her husband's best friend. Yeah, maybe I watch too many crime/police bodycam vidyas on YT.
I understood "we met shortly after" as talking about the wife and the best friend. Like a hyperbolic expansion of the "adult men don't talk about their lives with their male friends."
Thailand

Pretty sure that's the joke (the friend is the wife)
Oh thanks I didn't understand the joke
It wouldn't be funny if it was obvious. Thanks for your sacrifice.
Why wouldn't it be funny if it was obvious? Most funny jokes are obvious, at least after the punchline.
Everyone knows that to transition into a woman you walk into a booth in Bangkok called the "cunt machine" and after a magical girl transformation sequence you walk out a hormed and surged up doll
Shiny bright lights transformation like in Sailor Moon
Thank you, I had no idea what the OP was about.
As someone who transitioned and then dated her male best friend. It was fun, and while it didn't work out in the end because of things outside the relationship, it was one of the best relationships I've had.
Respectfully. That is really cute and heartwarming.
My best mate and I used to joke that if one of us was a woman or both of us were gay, it would have saved a lot of time.
If anyone is curious where this comes from, and whether or not it is AI.

Bet they played Striking Vipers
In other words, lying to your partner for over a decade? Why and, most importantly, how?
Edit: I wonder what the people who downvote the comment mean by them.
Sheesh. Can't a woman be bored by some old story without everyone jumping to far-fetched conclusions!
Now that's a good friend. Feeling sorry for his friend who can't find a girlfriend. Then disappears in Thailand so his friend can meet the love of his life.
