Sue-she we wouldn’t be together 10 years if we didn’t communicate, go on holidays, …. But in the past5 yeas after she graduated her work and dogs are consuming 90 hours a week. She says she must put in the hours and travel too. All to get ahead. All so she can get ahead. I have an awesome job. Maybe she lost interest in me as a committed man a few years ago
It’s not all sex

So, for you, the fornication is the only thing that determines whether you should stay with a person or not.

It is sad that you place so much emphasis on copulating and not on the person. Do you even communicate on a face-to-face basis with her or is it only through texting and video conferencing?

That is the major problem nowadays. People don't take the time to communicate and if fornication does not work, you drop the partner in favor of someone that is a novelty.

If you would communicate more, then you would find a solution to your problem and stay with that person rather than to seek someone newer.

You’re 28 and have been with one woman for 10 years? And you're ending it NOW bc you think that ONLY NOW you’ve become basically friends with benefits after 10 years of being together…. When’s the divorce?

If the relationship still works for the both of you why not stay in it? If you are looking for something more permanent you should find somebody else.

If its gone that way and you are only 28 , yeah for gods sake get rid of her , she has no time and its a friendship , time to move on..

Your choice. No one can choose for you... But personally the true meaning of love for me is not just "sparks" it's commitment. That doesn't mean tolerating a less than desirable situation, but working together to improve it before calling it quits.

How are you more like friends with benefits than partners just because she's busy at the moment?

[BenBomm]

Because she has to check her calendar before we can do anything together. We live 30 minutes drive away and when her work needs her in another State - there goes M-F and then her dogs must see her. I really think that the 7 year itch. And as soon as she started earning way over 6 figures

Oh no, she's successful, how dares she.
If you don't want to be with someone with success (&that crap does require hard work and sacrifices) then you do you and end it with her.

You love 30 minutes drive away, what? Her dogs? 10 years together and you still haven't joined your lives together? Maybe that is the main issue here. You two living separate lives still after so long together. No common goal, nothing to work together for.

Hard to tell, with little info.

What your tired of steady pussy without the pitfalls that could come with marriage.
