We lived together for 2 yrs, until she got a job 70 miles away [she hadn't worked in 5 yrs] 20 months ago. I also found she's been telling her friends for over a year she wanted to end it. I just ended it. She's worked killer hours for 20 months, is exhausted all the time and sleep deprived: obviously she's in a "survival mode". Over the past 20 months, she's been rude, callously indifferent, and non-responsive for days; but she swears she's never slept with anyone else, and she still 'loves' me, but doesn't want to have a sexual relationship with me. My 21 yr old daughter says that's stupid and ridiculous. Of course I still lvoe her, but I can't just be friends. I see this as her really just wanting to be friends. I'm confused: Your thoughts?

And the only reason she moved away 20 months ago is for the job 70miles away. She hadn't worked in 5 years and was living here rent free while chasing windmills for her dream job: 3rd world development, with the governement or with a non-governmental organization. I was TOTALLY committed to her.

Can you hear that inner voice telling you to move on? It's shouting at me!

Oh I got your answer. She doesn't want sex means she is holding out on you and their is ironically some trust issues going on. The way it sounds I can say it's not your fault. But if you try to go farther and you know you might then I can just tell you it's not going to work.
