Hi Bees,
I appreciate you taking the time to read my post. I figured I would try coming here for advice, because honestly, I’m too embarrassed to talk to my friends or family about this.
I met my FI over five and a half years ago. During the first three years, he was my rock. He met me during the worst time in my life, helped me get through it, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without him. We have had our fair share of difficulties, but have always managed to push through it together. After three years, we broke up for a few different reasons, but reconciled after six months because we really didn’t want to be with anyone else. After we reconciled, we were stronger than ever and things were great for the most part. About a year ago, I started to get antsy about getting engaged because we had been together for quite some time, worked through so many things, and I felt that I could spend the rest of my life with him. He, on the other hand, was still not ready. Eight months ago, he “proposed” to shut me up, and ever since then I have resented him for it and can’t seem to move past it no matter how hard I try. Him not being sure about me did incredible damage to my self-esteem and I am now a shadow of the independent woman I once was. I kept telling him for months after that I was on a downward spiral and we really needed to repair what we had before it was too late, but he never listened. Currently, our sex life is non-existent, we barely see each other or talk because he’s either sleeping or doing an extra-curricular activity, and we have recently admitted to each other that while we love each other, we are not in love with each other anymore. I’m not happy, but can’t imagine my life without him. At 30, I’m terrified to try and start over again because it seems that the only guys out there are douchebags or idiots, and I’m honestly too exhausted with life to put up with either of those. If I did stay, it would only be out of fear and financial security.
Bees, I need some advice. What would you do if you were in my situation?
(Please don’t leave negative comments about my maturity level, impatience, etc. I am well aware that I have made mistakes in the past, like we all have, and I’m only looking towards my future. Thank you.)Jakarta. The temporary suspension of a joint training between the Indonesian Military (TNI) and the Australian Defence Force (ADF) should not disrupt bilateral relations between the two neighboring countries, Chief Security Minister Wiranto said on Thursday (05/01).
Indonesia suspended the training after an Indonesian soldier reported teaching materials and verbal remarks made at an army language training facility in Australia that reportedly insulted the TNI and demeaned Indonesia's state ideology Pancasila.
A language instructor from the Indonesian Army’s special force Kopassus said he had received learning materials that contained a misspelling of Indonesia's state ideology Pancasila into "Pancagila" (Crazy Five) as well as controversial statements on Papua, Timor Leste and the banned Indonesian Communist Party (PKI) during a joint training session at an Australian military base in Perth.
Wiranto confirmed the suspension of the joint military training with Australia, adding that it was only temporary and partial.
"This will not disrupt the bilateral relationship between the two countries, which has been going well recently," Wiranto said in Jakarta.
The former general said he is convinced cooperation will be restored as soon as the Australian government completes its investigation into the case.

The titular character, whilst she doesn’t exist in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s works, is very much a presence in The Enola Holmes Mysteries.
Millie Bobby Brown, best known for playing Eleven in the Netflix’s Stranger Things, does an exceptional job breathing life into the Springer created character. Enola, not willing to conform to the path others choose for her, is definitely a Holmes. The titular character is enigmatic, imaginative, brilliant, and immensely quirky.
Brown, with fairly easy going mannerisms, embodies the best parts of Springer’s character. 
Eudoria Holmes, played by Helena Bonham Carter, is missing. Sherlock and Mycroft, respectively played by Henry Cavill and Sam Claflin, return home and find a free-spirited unconventional young woman in the shape of their sister Enola Holmes.
Enola, something Mycroft finds utterly distasteful, possesses is a blissfully independent soul. Her daily curriculum, as detailed by Enola herself, comprises of astrology, herbology, beekeeping, and jujutsu.
It doesn’t take long for Mycroft, Enola’s legal guardian, to establish himself as an obnoxious arse. This Mycroft, clearly misogynistic, doesn’t understand some women would prefer men not treat them as objects. Mycroft, not caring what his younger sister wants, intends to send Enola to a stuffy boarding school that caters to young women.
Sherlock, far more reserved than his older brother, doesn’t want to stifle Enola’s free-spirit. The younger brother, quietly sympathetic to his sister’s cause, is too self-interested to help. Each Holmes: Eudoria, Sherlock, Mycroft, and Enola, regardless of societal expectations, all follow their own path.
Further to Brown, Cavill, Claflin, and Bonham Carter, Thorne’s adaptation also stars Louis Partridge, Burn Gorman, Adeel Akhtar, and Susan Wokoma as Lord Viscount Tewkesbury, Linthorn, Lestrade, and Edith, respectively.
It would be remiss to not mention David Bamber, Frances de la Tour, and Fiona Shaw. The production relies heavily on marvellously well realised characterisations.
Bamber, since at least the early 1980’s, has developed a remarkable reputation as a character actor. Many of the productions the Manchester born actor is associated with, mostly period dramas, have been positively received.
De la Tour, having memorably played Madame Olympe Maxime in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1, brings a touch of class to The Dowager. Shaw, another Harry Potter alumna, quintessentially fits Dickensian headmistress Miss Harrison very nicely.
Jasper is the largest rocky mountain national park in Canada. Lying along the eastern slope of the rockies, this park is surrounded by the British Columbia's Mount Robson on the west, and the Banff national park on the south. Since it's pretty convenient to get there from the city edmonton (350 km, 3.5 hours drive), I have visited this beautiful park for many times.
1, This is the bird view of the jasper town from the mountain whistler. it can be reached by tramway or hiking if you wish (2.5 hours to to summit). The town is small, in winter it has maybe only 3000 people, but in summer (hot season for tourism, June to September), the population can be more than 30,000 people...!!!
2, Spring view of the highway 2 outside of the town, it connects edmonton and jasper.
3, Summer view of the highway 2.
4, Summer view of the medicine lake, it disappears in winter and shows again in summer, ancient indians say that the water in this lake is like medicine and can make you young forever, forever? well, I don't know...
5, Pyramid lake, it's just outside of the town, another beautiful alpine lake with the
