Believe it or not, I've been in a situation similar to yours. I once had a
"girlfriend" who was sort of broken up with her "ex-boyfriend" but not
really. She also said that she was in love with me. Like you, she wouldn't
tell her family about me, nor would she tell her friends. On top of this, she
lived 500 miles away.

I'll tell you man, all I can see for you in this is hurt. I know it's tough,
but the sooner you break this off, the easier (as if it'd be easy at all) it
will be.

"Tania" is obviously confused about her life right now and, unfortunately,
you're caught in the crossfire. I really think that you need to give her an
ultimatum because this will eat at your relationship until it's over
eventually. You might not like the answer to your ultimatum, but when you
look at it, what does that say about the basic foundation of your
relationship in the first place?

Good luck to you. I truly hope you'll find someone who will be in love with
YOU and *ONLY* you.
