I understand completely where you're coming from. I had the same type of relationship with my ex...lacking in passion but it made up for it in the way we got on together. Effortlessly...like the best friend I could have ever asked for. I don't know what to say except I hope someone else can give you some good advice. Know that you're not alone, please. I'm hoping you get some good responses to this post. It's too well-written to remain ignored.
