Once upon a time, there was a married man who found himself captivated by a striking woman. They decided to spend the night together, with the man agreeing to pay $500 for her company.
However, when the night came to an end, he couldn’t help but feel disappointed. He believed that the amount he had agreed to pay was too much for the experience he had.
Instead of giving her cash, they decided that he would send her a check labeled as “apartment rent.” This way, they could go their separate ways without any hard feelings.
But the man, still dissatisfied, decided to send her only half of the agreed-upon amount along with a letter explaining his dissatisfaction.
In the letter, he wrote:
“Dear Madam,
Enclosed, you will find a $250 check intended for your rent. I have sent a different amount than we initially agreed upon because, when I rented the apartment, I had certain expectations. I expected a vacant apartment, a warm and cozy atmosphere, and a comfortable living space. However, last night, I discovered that the apartment had been previously occupied, lacked proper heating, and was too spacious for my liking.”
Upon receiving the reduced payment and the letter, the woman was taken aback. She promptly returned the check to the man and responded with her own letter:
“Dear Sir,
Firstly, I am astounded by the notion that you expected a beautiful apartment to remain vacant indefinitely. As for the heating issue, it is available if you know how to operate it properly. And concerning the room’s size, it is indeed quite sufficient. If you find the furnishings unsatisfactory, kindly refrain from blaming the landlord. I must warn you that if you do not remit a check for the full $500, I will have no choice but to contact your current landlord.”
