In a recent comment, an excellent point was made: Why be in a relationship, when you know (or at least think you know) nothing will come out of it in the long, long run..(marriage)?
To respond to this, I do not know if there is a reason to stay in that kind of relationship. A highschool football coach of mine put it best to my buddies and I [back when we swore off getting "sucked" into long term relationships with girls when we got to college]: "What's the point of having a girlfriend when you're not going to marry her?"
Well hell, I don't know... I'm thinking maybe my girlfriend and I just got used to eachother and to not have one another in our lives would just feel.. not right..? And I think if I was to just go and break it off with her I would probably miss her because I like her, so why/ how can I just break it off?

Consider girlfriends to be trials in which you learn what to do/what not to do.
Haha
I like what Brit said.
and as for the.. why date her if you're not going to marry her thing, it's like saying, why do anything in life if you're going to die anyways?
how morbid is that? :(
but i wonder what she's thinking? lol..
I think that if you two are as close as you make it seem, you can still be friends. I know it sounds cliche, and I know people will say that it never works, the fact is; I DOES WORK - YOU HAVE TO MAKE IT WORK. You really have to make the split amicable, and you have to end it when it's needed. It's just going to get worse if you drag it out, you know? The first time breaking up comes into your thoughts, you NEED to do it, it will only be harder for the both of you in the long run if you wait.
--hope that helps =]
I actually broke up with a guy that I had been seeing for almost five years, and yes, it was sucky! However, I am really glad I broke it off because I'm with a guy that I really want to be with forever (and he feels likewise about me). It's awesome. Anyway, me and my ex agreed to break-up because we weren't in love, we were just comfortable. I think the worst part of breaking up is being so bored after you break-up, but I think if you break it off during the semester, you won't be so bored over the summer. It's hard-but just do it if it doesn't have potential. The longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to break-up.
If your not happy then just be friends and don't sleep with her like some men have thats just fucked up.
