If you really, truly don't want to do it, then don't even try. Don't try to be friends, don't string her along with some hope that you are going to make it work.
I don't think LDR's are really THAT impossible--our close circle of friends (4 couples) from grad school all made it through 2-4 years of middle and long distance, and we all got married in the end. I will say that it was NOT a pleasant experience, the 2 years I spent apart from ktspktsp, but we were stronger because of it, and we made it. Maybe because all 4 of us couples were in it together, we got through it with support, I dunno. But I don't see all doom and gloom with LDR's... they are what each individual and couple makes of them.
But don't pretend, if you know you don't want to do it. Make your decision and stand by it.
