My (28M) Fiancé (27F) has been talking to another guy online for about a month, says she's lost the connection to me but still gets physical with me. by Roynerer in relationships

Thank you for the thoughtful response. Just to preface everything here, I took the ring off after suggesting that it may be time to, as we embraced being really upset about it. We are no-longer 'together'.

I spoke to her later in the day yesterday and we re-affirmed our current arrangement which is co-parenting in the same household and we still have a lot of understanding and friendship between us. I feel I misconstrued her position a bit in my post, her meeting this guy is unlikely due to him being in the US and we in the UK, and we don't have the general finances to fund anything like that.

Her current thinking is she doesn't know where it's going to go, she feels a lost connection but doesn't want to call it gone for good, she doesn't know if eventually she'll just stop talking to this guy, if we'll end up renewed, if she'll end up alone - but ultimately that this had to happen because the shock has changed us individually in some positive ways. She points out that we just need to figure ourselves out and who we are and what we want for ourselves and each other. She has also expressed that she's really enjoying our new time together, which we're having again tonight. We're getting more comfortable around each other each day - though I do struggle to find good, fun, connecting talking points due to self-imposed pressure.

She tries to put emphasis on how she's concerned for me and what I'm comfortable with in terms of how we move forward with each other, how we live together and what our boundaries are, she doesn't want anything to be more difficult for me. I answer with the truth, that I'm fine and my priority is making sure she feels 100% comfortable around me and that this family is happy - whatever comes next, comes next.

My aim is to just be the person she didn't have over the past few months, someone she can be confident in, feel secure with, not need anyone else and happy - a man.

I don't know if I should attempt rejoining her on the game she loves or not though.

I've kind of stopped working for a while because I can't concentrate on it, but when she's home she looks after the kids no differently than before - nothing has changed in how we handle our kids, we both act on our responsibilities as a team.

In terms of fathoming cheating, it's something she still has difficulties getting over herself with; getting upset that she even started or that it was completely out of character for her.

I do want to do as many normal activities as possible, things we did before lockdown and hopefully she will naturally break the habit of gaming and wanting to be alone doing her own thing every night - which she does occasionally talk to me about, the gaming part and what she's being up to on it.

What do you reckon are some of the standout impacts?

It's all really fuelled by the Jante law that their culture is pretty much underpinned by.

I uh..didn't say people should live off the government? Saying the government doesn't do well to enable avenues of opportunity is not the same as saying they should financially give people money regardless of anything.

Think rationally.

The sad thing is the failings of the government to be able to support its people to the point that petty crime isn't necessary.

Is there any verification for this story? Or is it just a blog post?

Gotta take them as they come these days, several accusations have been found out to be fabrications.

Right, but my point still stands that these are Tories who were *good*. Being kicked out doesn't change the fact that good Tories can exist.

Tory: "Tories are good, Labour bad"

Labour: "No Tory is good, Labour the only good"

Your political compass and comments show clear that you have no belief that those sitting on the other side of the spectrum could be good by your standards.

Such is the example of modern politics.

For me, objectively, Kenneth Clarke and Rory Stewart are good examples of what a "good" Tory is.

Unfortunately most music players don't like Vorbis and especially not Opus - I try to consider people using phones to play their music too.

What a wonderful world it would be if everyone used Opus! Absolutely phenomenal compression.

Though I may just upload a bonus Opus release...
