Wow, everyone is missing the point, or not paying attention to what I said.  Our relationship is not one of a married couple.  she has told me she can't have a romantic relationship with me, but can love me as a sister/best friend.  Of course, we have history.  Whether we legally seperate or divorce is a possiblility, but not a foregone conclusioon.  She has gone through meno-pause, so, I don't think there is a chance of pregnance.  We are grandmothers.  Of course,there is jealousy, it's natural.  she is also a bit jealous of my friendships, always has.  Also, I prioritize our time together, so we aren't talking every weekend, or something like that.  I encourage her to meet people (guys) and, she will at her own pace.  Our situation isn't ideal, but our connection is real, deep, and important.  I appreciate the advice, but please read my previous posts for the background before you cast judgement.
