Your engaged girlie...
You coulda told her the truth. Perhaps she in fact loved you for who you really are, not for who you thought you were portraying.
I had a long relationship with a guy who did the same sort of thing - met him online, he made out he was a GP who had gone on to be a trauma surgeon. Researched it meticulously, gave out "unofficial diagnoses" to friends, still has many people who knew both of us fooled to the day.
A year after we met online and three months after we met in real life he told me it was all a sham, he was a motorcycle courier whose nan had died of cancer, which had caused him to have a bit of a breakdown. The GP fantasy was the result.
We were together for four years after that. Who he really was had come through his lies more than he ever thought - and I fell in love with that person. not the one he thought I knew.

Just saying, you never know.

Yes, this
Sure, everything she knows about you; your name, job, background, what you look like, it’s all false. But your personality, your sense of humour, your opinions, the very things that make you the person you are, are still all you, regardless of what name you’re hiding behind. Just a thought.

Perhaps.
But then I did things like tell her I was part Italian, that I'd lost most of a leg in a car accident, that I liked things which in 'real life' I don't.
I could have told her the truth, but the 'me' I created, that she loved, was completely different to the 'actual' me.

might compensate for the not being a bronzed italian though. swings and roundabouts etc.
