Does the divorce that he swore by saying to his wife, "If you do something similar to what bothers me, and you must ask for my permission first," take effect if the wife did something similar that she did not think would bother him, and she forgot to ask for his permission, then informed him of it? And does the occurrence of divorce depend on his feeling of being bothered at that moment, or on her realization of the matter at the time it occurred?

The preponderant opinion is that the divorce did not occur as long as the wife forgot the matter, because the oath is not broken by performing the sworn-upon act out of forgetfulness. One must be cautious of swearing by divorce.
