Ok, here it goes... I don't know where to turn to so I thought I would try here in hopes of getting some advice.
It was a year ago from this time when my 7 year marriage (11 relationship) ended. A very good friend of mine helped me through an otherwise difficult time and helped me get back on the road to recovery. If it wasn't for her, I would be having a difficult time with life these days. As we got to know each other, we began hanging out which quickly turned physical - Something I was missing in my marriage. Once my marriage ended, I became very jaded towards relationships but still craved companionship which I had in my friend. Again, this all started about a year ago. In recent months, my friend has fallen in love with me but unfortunately I don't feel the same. Perhaps it's the wall that has gone up after my relationship perhaps I'm simply not ready for anything but what I have right now. I hate that she is hurting like this but I have tried to explain - and I had the best of intentions, that she has the best of what I can offer right now. We hang out quit a bit, and I really enj oy the time with her but there is nothing there for me than love for a very good friend. Things are still very physical which is surely not helping the situation at all but it's what we both want. I tried explaining to her that we both don't know where this is going and if we are meant to be together then it will happen, and that she is focusing to much on the future rather than enjoying the present. I don't want to lose my friend but things have gotten very complicated and I am not someone to see anyone hurt. Any advice would certainly help out.
Oh, and to just make things even more complicated, we also have a 2 man marketing business together, so... There's that.
Thanks for listening, I appreciate it.
