She proceeded to share how unhappy and miserable she was with her weight. She said that night that she was starting a “get back into shape” journey. I felt absolutely horrible and like I failed the love of my life. It was my fault she had gained weight. I was a horrible influence on her because I had gained even more weight. I used to be in great shape when we met but then let myself go after that. I had turned into a “chubby hubby/dad bod”. I was a Personal Trainer and Bodybuilder and had abs when we met.
