Woman used to send baked goods to her husband's work, he divorced her so now she bakes for his hotter coworker and he can’t handle it: 'They're making jokes about how I upgraded'

There's nothing quite as satisfying as accidentally one-upping your ex, and especially when you're not even trying. Yeah, the high road is always encouraged, but sometimes karma just needs a little time (and a well-packed lunch) to do its thing. Whether it's moving on with someone kinder, hotter, or simply less emotionally constipated, the quiet flex of living well after a breakup can speak volumes.

And then there's the art of unintentional revenge. Like sending baked goods to your new boyfriend's workplace, where, oh right, your ex also works, and suddenly finding out it's causing a morale shift. You're not being petty; you're just sharing your love for baking. But it turns out that when your upgrade is obvious and your cookies are unforgettable, some exes don't handle it well.

In this story, one woman's pastries are sparking more than just compliments. They're lighting up her ex's insecurities, and now he's asking her to stop.
