So I accidentally overheard my wife talking about why she married me and honestly I'm spiraling.
My wife is like... the full package. Hot, fit, takes care of herself, comes from money, has a solid job. The works.
Me? I'm from an orphanage. High school diploma. Work as a machinist in a factory cutting metal.
Like don't get me wrong, I'm not just some guy banging on metal all day. I've got certifications, won competitions, I can actually design and manufacture stuff. But everyone around me? They see the factory worker. The guy covered in metal shavings.
I was so scared I'd fall behind that I worked full-time AND went to night university at the same time. Literally bled for that degree. Finally graduated.
Still just the metal guy though.
I make between 40-60k a year depending on how much work comes in. It's solid money for the industry, actually one of the better salaries in my field, but... it's not like I'm swimming in it.
We met when she came to the factory for a design change meeting. She works for a semiconductor supplier, the kind of company that deals with factories like mine. First time I saw her was just this random work thing. I remember thinking there's NO WAY someone like that works at a place that deals with... us.
And apparently she married me. And I just found out why she did it.
I'm having a moment.
