Holy poo poo, that's rough. Best of luck to you and the fiancee in your soon to be separate lives.

But...have you considered letting your fiancee know with a note in a ring sized box from a jewelry store? I mean, everything else lines up, may as well make the break as clean as you can.

Seriously, consider this before you break up with your fiancee on your anniversary, her birthday, and Valentines Day.

This thread is supposed to be a cautionary tale, not an instruction manual :v:

Didn't mean to completely derail 14's thread. Was drunk and forgot which thread I was posting in.

I could do the "move my poo poo into a storage unit, sleep in the bus in a gym parking lot (preferably next to a laundromat)" plan, but this next upcoming weekend is drill, so I don't have the time to move then. We plan on being out by the 20th, but was kind of planning on doing it sooner. I have major dental work being done the morning of the 13th, or I might have done it then. I work through starting tomorrow until then, too.

Almost think it would be worse waiting until the 18-19th weekend. Celebrate, then bounce a few days later?

I think that this would be a more humane way to do it. Otherwise you may look like an rear end in a top hat to any mutual acquaintances.

Alternatively, gently caress up big time so she kicks you out on Valentines day and you won't have to feel bad or look like an rear end in a top hat.

No, see, that makes you an rear end in a top hat, and honestly, you shouldn't feel guilty about what you did or that it was cheating. I have zero respect for cheats, but I agree with the others who say you aren't in a romantic relationship with this woman, you're the caregiver. IMO, there's nothing to break off because it sounds like it was over long ago and you didn't realize it until you met someone better. I know you've said you don't feel guilt over it, but you obviously do.

I'm suggesting something like, full scale decluttering of the house.

Wellll... I mean, fair enough, we've all banged someone we probably shouldn't have, but there is a line, and while I'm fully prepared to support MGS in this scenario, he did cross it.

POSSIBLY IT WOULD BE SIMPLER IF I ASKED FOR A LIST OF THE HARMLESS CREATURES OF THE AFORESAID CONTINENT?
My wife's first serious boyfriend broke up with her the day after her 21st birthday - pretending like all was fine that night. Waiting is probably the harshest and most jarring way to break up. If you're not in the relationship any more why would you pretend to be?

It sucks, and throws your life into turmoil, but honestly, rip the band aid off.

E: Then again, my advice is probably terrible. My last relationship ended because of cheating (wasn't me) and that's why my left hand and I are considering marriage.

Nah I think you guys are right. It's fundamentally dishonest and actually pretty hosed up to pretend you're still in love with someone when you really aren't. Kiss them when they come home? gently caress them at night? Or even just say the words and go through the motions? No doubt having to sort out sleeping arrangements will be awkward and maybe you'll have to leave immediately, but that's probably still less hosed than being grossly dishonest for days or weeks just to find a day that is more convenient for you.

Turns out vampires don't have to be invited in to gain entry. It's just that early Dracula was classy and Victorian as gently caress.
