If you find out that your ex has died, finish washing your face, take your time getting into bed and shut the tap off first.

I acted like an arsehole in my previous relationship. There was a lot of love between us but I managed to ruin it within the last 4 months of that 4-year relationship. The argument that led to her leaving me was ridiculous and it was entirely my fault. I’m ashamed to say it, but I never even apologised. I did contact her parents to explain how sorry I was, and I very rarely spoke to mutual friends so I didn’t have to hear about her. <br><br>She drove the car we shared for another year after we split up, and I’d see her every couple of weeks and we never spoke. I’d see her at church sometimes too and again it was awfully silent. She was the most beautiful girl I’d ever met. <br><br>After we split up, I went off the rails. I was a wreck. I couldn’t sleep, ran through 3-4 different jobs, stopped going to church, stopped looking after myself. It got to the point where I couldn’t look anyone in the eye. I was that ashamed. <br><br>I got a call from her father one day to let me know that she had died in a terrible accident at work, which I totally forgot about until I got home from the funeral. I cried so much and then the very next day I found myself cleaning my house like a maniac. I also started going back to church. I got a new job and met a really kind girl. I treated her so nicely and obviously she found me very attractive as I was so respectful and well turned out. I was thoughtful and attentive and looking back I can see why she loved me within 11 months of us seeing each other. We were engaged within 2 years and married a year after that. It’s been 13 years and we’re still together. We have three beautiful children and I’m just so happy and grateful that I got a second chance. <br><br><br>This is all so_pdata cause I met my beautiful wife one day. She was the most beautiful girl I’d ever met. <br><br><br>Edit 1 - I know some of you think this is fake. I’m not going to try to prove myself. If you’re doubting my legitimacy then just be boring and move on. I’m not going to try to make anyone believe me.<br><br>Edit 2 - Thanks so much kind strangers. I really appreciate all your words of encouragement. I have taken to reading them all and my beautiful wife is reading them on my behalf. Thank you for making us cry.<br><br>Edit 3 – Even though I deleted, you were right. I’m sorry. <br><br>Edit 4 – Wow. I’m really blown away. I have taken a photo of the front page to show my beautiful wife when she gets off work. I didn’t expect this so thank you all again.
