Hi, just wondering whether anyone know what’s happening in other countries as lockdowns ease in respect of seeing family and partners (without a 2 metre distance). There still seems to be little information over here as to when we may be able to socialise again with loved ones, the focus seems solely on getting the economy up and running again.
I have been separated from my fiancé now for 3 months and I’m finding it so hard. I have 2 children under 5 from a previous relationship who I live alone with currently. My partner also has 2 children so given the size of our houses, moving in together wasn’t an option at the start of lockdown. I’m starting to lose hope as to when we will be able to see each other again properly. I know we can see each other outside at a distance now but it’s not the same. It seems like there has been no consideration for those who live alone away from their long term partners. It’s really upsetting. Im struggling with working from home and looking after the kids (who are really demanding because of their age). My fiancé just wants to come and help me but it’s against the law now for him to be in my house which seems like total madness.
I can’t find anything online on what other countries have done in relation to allowing loved ones contact again (proper contact I mean). Surely this is allowed now in some other countries that have been affected as their lockdowns have been eased or is everyone still having to social distance from their loved ones? Does anyone know what’s happening in other countries to maybe give us a tiny glimmer of hope?
