My wife got in shape and left me, claiming she could do way better than me. Now she regrets it

The Aftermath and Rebuilding

3 days later moved in with a coworker for a while and eventually got a nice little apartment downtown. I won’t lie I was wrecked.

I didn’t eat for days i kept wondering what I did wrong how I wasn’t enough. I’d look in the mirror and just see every flaw she must have seen.

I spiraled man i even considered closing the shop. But you know what helped me get out of that funk?

Ironically it was the gym not for revenge not for her but for me. I started running joined a boxing class lifted weights.

I didn’t turn into a fitness model or anything but I got healthier stronger mentally and physically. And slowly I rebuilt my shop grew.

I hired another mechanic expanded to more clients. I adopted another dog because why not.

I went to therapy made peace with the fact that the woman I married didn’t exist anymore. And then out of nowhere I met someone.

Her name’s Taylor. She came in with a busted transmission and left with more than a fixed car.

She’s kind funny doesn’t care that I have grease under my nails and doesn’t expect me to be some influencer type guy.

We’ve been together almost a year now and yeah I’m happy like actually happy.
