How do I (F34) tell my friend (F30) that I'm not interested in her friend (M38)

Fixed this for you with some very slight editing:

I'm [F34] in love with a [M56] (LDR) who's a bit older than me (22-year difference). My friend keeps pressuring me to date her friend "who's closer to my age." He's not my type, and I talked to him a little to appease her. And there was really no spark between us. Not like this other guy that I'm in love with (he admitted to feeling the same way about me). She thinks that I need to be with someone around the same age, but I'm in a relationship with my boyfriend [M38], and it's not working out (after almost 10 years together, no intimacy for the past 5yrs) (he knows of this other guys and doesn't care).

My grandparents were 21 years apart and very happy together for a very long time (until my grandfather's death a few years ago).

How do I nicely tell my friend I'm not interested in anyone but the guy I love? And she asked if I was dating the older guy, and I said no, and that I just want to move and start over. Now, she doesn't want me moving at all (even if it's to move by grandma) (I live in a northern state) and need to get out of the cold for my mental health. What do I tell my friend?

(The guy I love is 1200 miles away, and I don't want anyone but him)
