reader, anonymous, writes (17 November 2010): This is sort of complicated. As one that currently has a relationship that could be classified as of lovers but do not have any sex the question that needs to be answered is that if you need sex to create intimacy between you two?. Don't get me wrong sex is great and all but is it for you important to have?. I do hold a very close relationship with this person (I believe closer that she hold with her current BF) and while I may long for really good sex with her it's not a requisite for me to feel close to her and share all kinds of things. I word of caution, I do feel stuck every once in a while in my relationship but I don't let it show in front of her but it's more of a personal thing for me. The most important aspect is that you talk this openly with her, let her know what you want and expect from the "relationship". If she knows what to expect and what it's expected from her this will definitely help out in the long run. Maybe lead to a full on relationship...Good luck

The word "lovers" implies sex is happening. Here is the definition taken from thefreedictionary.com.
lov·er (lvr)
n.
1. One who loves another, especially one who feels sexual love.
2. lovers A couple in love with each other.
3.
a. A paramour.
b. A sexual partner.
4. One who is fond of or devoted to something
So technically, no. However in general use it typically does imply a sexual relationship.
