I do feel she was dependant on me because she stated it many times. Her therapist was encouraging her to become more self-sufficient and to not count on me for everything.  I understand that and support that. I don't want someone to be with me because they need me. I want someone to be with me because they love me.   The problem is that there are many times, until this day, that she calls me and tells me she's thinking of me and that she loves me and hopes I'm o.k.  That's the problem.  There are times I really do think she still loves me. However, with the anti-depressants her libido became non-existent, our physical life faded, and somehow she felt she didn't want to be with me anymore.   It's really difficult because I was really there for her for all the right reasons and truly loved her....illness or not....I guess I never saw this coming....and it's quite difficult for me to deal with....It's important to say she was hospitalized at one point and I still was there for her through all the hard times...but in a way I felt I lost a part of her after she was hospitalized....it's like she was never the same person after that depressive episode.....
