[quote name='sarausagi']Considering how quickly relationships end in the US...it's a good thing you've been with her that long and are still relatively happy.
Here's the thing though..what you should do...isn't dump her
but TAKE YOUR INTERNSHIP, do whatever it is you want to do career wise or goal wise
If she loves you and is TRULY WORTH BEING WITH, she will UNDERSTAND YOU THE WHOLE WAY THROUGH
In the end it was your choice not to intern or do whatever it is you wanted to do, not hers, she may have been an influence but you made the choice, and you seem to be okay right now
However, next time you have a choice to make, MAKE YOUR CHOICE, if she is worth loving and worth being with, SHE WILL UNDERSTAND THE CHOICES YOU HAVE TO MAKE
If there is "real" love, then distance, or time, or circumstance, SHOULD NOT BE A REASON FOR THAT LOVE TO GROW WEAK..
If "less time" or being "further apart" is enough to weaken your relationship, then what can you expect if you ever SICK, or BROKE, or DISABLED?! What if a draft was called and you had to go serve?
See, don't just dump her without giving her a chance, you hear me
DON'T JUST DUMP HER WITHOUT GIVING HER A CHANCE
Make your choices, SEE HOW SHE REACTS, IF SHE LEAVES YOU OR CAN'T UNDERSTAND OR TREATS YOU LIKE SHIT, DUMP HER
IF SHE'S SUPPORTIVE, TRIES TO HELP, AND DOES HER BEST TO LOVE YOU THROUGH EVERYTHING YOU DO AND LIVE, THEN SHE IS WORTH BEING WITH.
I think what you need to do is watch Whisper of the Heart, they are a much younger couple, but there's a very nice message about love in it....what the girl does is especially moving
So yeah, YOU need to make YOUR CHOICE...if she can't go along with it, then she's not the right person for you.
At the same time, you would also find a way to be with her...if you can't be with her during an internship or study program, how the hell will you find a way to be with her when you have a real job?
So please..hear me out and don't immediately dump her because CAG told you to[/quote]
...best advice you will get, whether its from a CAG or anyone else...read this and take it to heart
