Breiter Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 i have been dating my girlfriend for almost a year and a half and now she says she cant do long distance any more. We are young (both 19) and starting university. We are 3 hours away and make it work by seeing each other around our work schedules. when we are together it is the most amazing time. i have never been so happy to be around someone and it may sounds silly and premature but i can see myself spending the rest of my life with this girl. we have talked about future plans and have always said that after school we would move to the same city together. the past few days she has been saying its going to be too hard to keep this relationship with school around the corner. we would see each other about once a month. she says if we lived closer none of these worries would be going through her head. we are both madly in love with each other but its just too hard for her. i don't know what else to do i have looked at websites for tips and nothing applies to us. what should i do? i believe that if you love someone you should do whatever it takes to be with that person. Let me know what you think. Thank you Link to post Share on other sites
creighton0123 Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 You can't do anything. In order for a relationship to continue, both of you need to be mentally and emotionally invested in the relationship. If she can't reconcile the distance, despite your conviction, she will end the relationship. If you still both have passion, which it seems like you do, I'd suggest you convince her to take one semester and maintain the relationship. After the semester is over, you can both meet up and discuss whether or not you'd like to continue. In other words, ask her for more time so she can see how she feels rather than making a decision based on fear of how she may feel. Link to post Share on other sites
