Hi all, I'm not super savvy when it comes to mortgage rates, obviously understand the basic principles, but by no means an expert.

I am due to remortgage in November. I'm looking to lock in a fixed rate, but not sure whether to lock in for 2 years and readdress the situation in 2028 (are we ancitipating things will be better by then?!) OR lock for 5 years at somewhere in the 4% region....

Thoughts from anyone with experience / expertise is welcomed!

Hi guys, as the title says, my ex of 13 years split with me on 5th Jan. By Feb 13th she was seeing a new dude. She's been with him for 3 months. Found out via a mutual. They're basically in a relationship. Fairly shattering stuff. She doesn't have anyone in the way of friends, the friends she had were mine originally and so they retracted their support.

Shaken to my core that it took 4 weeks to hop into something new. It was the first guy she ever dated, they've been seeing each other ever since. She told me it was nothing & she didn't want a relationship, she even said "is it just a distraction?" to which I replied "it's called a rebound kid".

Pretty rattled. Was doing well until I found out yesterday. I cannot personally imagine giving anyone else my time in a serious manner right now, I've done some dating and stuff, but it's not really clicked & I don't want to hurt anyone or waste anyone's time. Just seeking comfort really.
