How do you break up with someone who is completely in love with you?

Asked by Esedess (3467points) February 3rd, 2012

It’s been complicated from the get go (too much to explain). Now about 3 years later things have finally settled down to where we can just enjoy each other. However, as much as I like and enjoy having her around (and I DO), I’ve never felt “in love” with her.
I ended my last relationship too hastily, resulting in a lot of unanswered questions, regret, and subsequent (and continued) doubting my own thoughts on such matters. To make matters worse, if I ask myself if I want her around, the answer is yes. But if I ask myself if I want to date her, the answer is I don’t know/maybe/I don’t think so/yes/no/I have no idea… and there in lies the problem. All my friends tell me I should break up with her because she’s completely infatuated/in love with me and I’m not with her. But, how do/can you dump someone who truly loves you unconditionally, who hasn’t wronged you in any way, and who is fun/nice to be around, but whom YOU (for some reason?) just aren’t in love with?

On a side note, could it be that my not being in love with her is merely a matter of something like me being overly picky and just not letting myself?
