About my best friend who I sleep with?

[greeneyesjenny]

I've been in a situationship for about 4 years. We've have the same recurring fight which pretty much is about the fact that I don't live close enough for a serious relationship. I want it but he just feels being an hour and 20 minutes away from each other is too long.
We both enjoy being around each other. We've also tried to end things but somehow rekindle things. Mostly him rekindling it. He is attempting to persue other woman closer and I've tried but it's difficult because I have feelings and he said he does too but he represses them. I feel I'm just going to get hurt at some point because if he really likes me why wouldn't he just try. But I really like him and don't feel I will get the same connection with someone else. Is he just stringing me along for the sex? He knows how I feel and this is why we end up in fights because he doesn't want to hear it over and over because he knows how I feel. He's says it's not productive because right now we can't be together. We have talked about future plans of being together when our kids are older. Any help would be great!

That’s impossible a Situationship stop following sheep. There is no Situationship in life. It’s friendship or relationship. There is no situation relationship.

we are best friends. We talk almost every day. And we've told each other everything about our lives. So we know each other very well.

Then call it a friendship don’t follow the new trends of the new expressions coming out like Situationships and gaslighting. This is all just new terms coming out. The old-school is the best style of approach.

[greeneyesjenny]

Yes it is a friendship. I'd say best friends.

To be frank one of you needs to make a decision to move in with the other and find a new job near by assuming employment is stopping one of you from moving?

He's stringing you along. If he really wanted to be in a relationship with you, he'd find a way to make it happen.

What exactly is a "situationship"?

[integrale77]

I'd say it's when your both in a situation that makes it convenient to be together... Not really this situation apart from being convenient to stay together because they can't find anyone else.

Thank you for the MHO.

Your thing with him has run it's course. You're willing to make things happen and he clearly isn't.

A man who's willing will leave no stone unturned to keep the relation alive.

Best friends and you can’t work out living closer or together? Really?
