What is the ruling if a husband attaches divorce to a condition, and then attaches divorce to the act of divorcing her, and the first condition is met?

If a husband first states, "If you go out, you are divorced," and then states, "If I divorce you, you are divorced," and she goes out, she is divorced by going out. She is not divorced by the second conditional statement (attaching divorce to her divorce) because he had not yet divorced her thereafter, nor did divorce occur upon her; since the occurrence of the divorce by her going out happened before the attachment of divorce to his divorcing her, the second condition was not met, and thus it did not take effect.
