This is going to sound a little harsh. That statement is completely bogus. It's a trite, over-used cliche that is designed to justify something. You're either justifying that the love is gone (but you're a nice person and you don't want to admit it), or you're confused and using "not IN love" to justfiy dominating the situation.
You feel controlled and manipulated. Fact is, Rich
has been controlling and manipulating you--and he knows it. And you're using this "love but not IN love" BS to get back at him.
