Woman Dumped Her Fat Boyfriend, But Two Years Later She Regretted It…

The Office Romance

Stanley and Helen met at work. The young people worked as managers at the same firm, and their workspace was next to each other at the office. Stanley has always been a kind and accommodating person who avoids any conflict and disputes.

While Helen, on the other hand, was a very energetic and determined young lady used to always achieving her goals. It must be true what they say about the opposites attracting in the most unexpected way. This is probably why Stanley and Helen began dating instantly, turning into a beautiful couple that turned heads on the street.

By the time the young people decided to move in together, they were in a relationship for a little over a week. Living together was Helen’s idea, who has always treated life with a fair amount of pragmatism.

“Why spend money on living in two apartments to live separately if we can just live together and save money?”

Said the young woman, who immediately got the better of the compliant and quiet Stanley.

The Weight of the Relationship

A measured life and sedentary work gradually did their job. Helen was the first one to notice the increasing size of her waistline, closely followed by Stanley. But while Stanley did not see his rounding tummy as something to worry about, Helen was appalled since it put her status as the most beautiful woman at the office into question.

At first, Helen would simply make fun of Stanley, getting him to blush every time he stood on the scale. Helen’s jokes actually really hurt the man, and he had a good reason for it.

The fact was that since his childhood, the young man had a tendency to easily gain excess weight, and now it awoke a bunch of deeply hidden issues. But it’s one thing when strangers consider you chubby and something completely different when it’s the person you love.

The Gym Membership

So one day Stanley snapped, and when Helen began to complain about being out of shape yet again, he invited her to join the gym. Stanley was very excited to have Helen agree, and so the very next day, the young people got themselves an annual membership at the gym.

It should be mentioned that the very first workout together made an indelible impression on Stanley, who had very different ideas about how it would go about. The young man was embarrassed and ashamed of the fact that he looked like a fat seal compared to the fit, pumped-up regulars of the gym.

On top of that, Stanley didn’t actually know how to use the gym equipment and the treadmills, which also made him feel very out of place. Helen, on the other hand, quickly found her way around the gym and soon felt there like fish in the water.

Drifting Apart

That obviously had an important effect on Helen’s progress, and soon her figure reflected it. Helen’s excess weight literally melted before everyone’s eyes, which she reminded Stanley about at every opportunity.

But Stanley, despite all his best efforts and unbelievable motivation, couldn’t lose even a pound. The lack of any progress and Helen’s condescending attitude depressed Stanley, and it took him a lot of work to force himself to even keep trying.

It was a very difficult time for Stanley, and he needed the support of his girlfriend more than ever. Unfortunately, Helen was too busy worrying about her own personal success at weight loss and was convinced that all of Stanley’s reasons and worries were simply excuses of a lazy fat man.

A Toxic Turn

Her attitude hurt Stanley, but he gritted his teeth and endured everything. Stanley’s complacent behavior could be explained by the fact that he was a very calm man who didn’t want to fight with his girlfriend and possibly even ruin their relationship.

Time went by, and Helen’s insults became more painful and sophisticated, which definitely didn’t help strengthen the relationship between the young people. At one point, Stanley even got the feeling that Helen was putting him down and making fun of him to make her success seem more substantial.

This led to the fact that the young people virtually stopped going anywhere together. Helen always found excuses to try and leave for the gym before Stanley did, and at the gym, she acted as if she didn’t even know him.

The Betrayal

Stanley understood that Helen was ashamed of him and considered him to be unworthy of being seen with her. Moreover, Helen didn’t suffer from the lack of attention from other people, spending more and more time with new girlfriends and trainers.

When Stanley didn’t feel like putting up with her behavior and approached her at the gym, she just brushed him off, trying to stay closer to her new friends. Stanley did whatever he could to attract Helen’s attention again, but she stubbornly refused to notice him.

The breaking point came when Stanley took a stand and walked out in the middle of her joint workout, hoping to shake Helen and force her to reconsider her attitude towards him. Unfortunately, Helen didn’t follow him.

Moreover, she didn’t even pay any attention to what Stanley did, continuing with the workout as if nothing had happened. Stanley took it really hard, even though he was already used to the fact that the only thing Helen was interested in was her own body and the gym, which she now went to every day as if she worked there.
