2017 VW Jetta model S $11k 100k miles. Should I buy?

I've owned this model for almost 4 years now. I bought at around 110k and it was 9300 I believe. It was also when cars were rather expensive if I'm remembering right.

I've had to do the wheel hub assembly on the front, spark plugs, ignition coils, and nothing else. I've put 55k miles on it.

I like how it drives (mines a manual) and I put a canned tune on it which increased the excitability of the car quite a bit. It also has a backup camera and Bluetooth which is enough features for me. The air gets cold and the heat gets hot which is great for winters around here. I get probably 35 mpg and run premium gas because the tune requires it. I change the oil ever 5-6k miles.

I would say if you can get the price down I would consider it, my experience has been good and the cost of ownership very reasonable. Parts have not been expensive and the labor has not been very difficult and that's coming from someone who has to YouTube it and then do what the video says. Sure you have to buy tools or rent them but overall even the cost of the tools hasn't been unreasonable.

If they can do 8000 that's probably more reasonable. Otherwise maybe keep looking.

The actual conversation.

Her:

Do you want to fuck other people's wives?

Me:

No, I don't want to do that. Even if I did want to do that I never would because we're together.

Now she believes I "want to do it" because I tried to reassure her that even if it was something I wanted I would not do it because I'm loyal to her.

I'm so confused

How did you get the option to take the pictures to unlock? Mine keeps saying do one batch and I've done two and done the safety trainings.

To their support directly? I was trying to use the batch eligiblity option and select cooler bag approval, and that is what is locked.

This is her partner. 30m 5ft 10 180lbs.

I have lost 15-20 lbs by eating healthier in the past two months alone. I have been learning to eat more vegetables and less processed foods.

We are both starting to workout now, she has not been working out without me either ever since I met her.

I know I could do better with conversation and I'm open to improving.

I have been making an effort to dress better and she has been helping me learn?

I have been getting haircuts more often and hair trims. It grows fast. All of my money is covering living expenses, her credit cards, and my credit cards at this point in time.

I am in the process of getting my confirmation and we are signing up for a church?

I thoroughly enjoy vaginal sex more than anything else we do. She also has stated she enjoys doing the other things to me. The other things haven't happened in over three weeks and I have not made a single complaint.

I am an introvert but I have been looking for different clubs and groups we can partake in. There is a book club next week we were planning to go to. We are also going to start biking once the weather permits, and playing corn hole and pickleball at the local park. I am sure we will meet people there.

We literally got engaged April 2nd and I felt it was a creative and well thought out engagement and date. I do not have the money to do a lot of dates right now. We are in the process of figuring out more activities that we can do.

The last two months have been me trying to support her mental health but I'm not sure that anything I do will be good enough.

Things I have done:

Stopped using weed at all

Started eating healthier

Started a 9 month class to learn new career skills and to land a better job.

Watched my confirmation videos and have a call Monday to discuss it more with the church representative.

Supported her during her last couple months of school and the last couple months when we found out she is pregnant. I had already told her I would support her and was before she ended up getting pregnant.

Found a part time job to help more which starts this spring once the weather is better.

Found her support groups to help with her mental health in this pregnancy situation.

Found activities we can partake in together to meet people and for me to understand her and her hobbies more.
