I'm a 40 year old lesbian & I've been in a relationship for 4 yrs. I'm happy & thought she (42 yrs old) was too. We've lived together for 3 yrs. We get along so well, don't argue, we show affection & have similar interests. Our differences are really minimal. 3 months ago she told me she needs to live alone for awhile, said she's been depressed and needs time to work on herself. Devastating in itself, I also had to figure out where to live for awhile. I'm trying to be supportive by learning more about depression (she had suffered past depression before I met her) and by doing things on her terms. I have been paying 1/2 the rent while she figures things out & I have given her space, we are only seeing each other 3x's mo. but talk on the phone daily. I miss her a lot. She recently told me that she loves me but that she's not "in love" with me & that she needs time to figure out what's wrong with her. Yet she said we will be together again. I'm confussed. Anyone have a similar experience?
