Okay Here it goes.

Im 18 years old i work at wal mart and i plan on attending a college next fall. LIFE IS GOOD. im not stressed out or over worked i like living and i enjoy most everyones company. But the one thing that makes me most happy is my girlfriend. I live for her. im in love with her shes all i think about. we have been dating for 6 months, her parents like me her siblings like me and i like them. but shes sixteen and still in school and i go to work 5 days a week an hour after she gets out of school then i get back home at 11:30 and she goes to school at 5 AM so on average i see or talk to her 1hr out of every day. ever since school started things went down hill we have been contemplating break ups, and time apart. but i now all we need is time together but know when we hang out its very weird because we dont see eachother on a daily baisis. Things are twisted. should i keep the girl of my dreams the girl im in love with or should i let her go forever because we never get to see eachother?

Why are your priorities so screwed up? It seems like you’d rather have money than your girlfriend!

Ok whether you think i am crazy or not, i don’t care…but i am in love with a boy that i have never met in person…needless to say, we don’t ‘hang out’ there is a time difference and so when i am going to bed he is waking up and vice versa…we don’t get to talk much either…and obviously only online…still we have been together for eleven months and are planning on meeting soon…we have had our share of fights about not being together and have considered breaking up, but we have stuck to it…we are in love…hold on to your love and don’t give up…true love can make it through anything…

So, you come on complaining because you spend so much time working for WalMart that you can’t see your girlfriend and then try to tell me that money is secondary to you?

Gimli, Give him a break. I’m sure even his girlfriend wants him to have a job and be able to support himself rather than be some deadbeat, especially if they ever plan on living together in the future.

Viva, time apart stresses out a lot of couples. Some last through it, some don’t. Relationships need tests like these. If you can make it through the tough times and still be loyal to each other when you don’t get to see much of each other, then you will be fine. Learn to cherish the moments that you do get to spend with her, if things feel awkward, then switch that tension to romantic energy. Little random romantic gestures will really help you two to stay focused on your relationship despite all the distractions of real life. Try leaving romantic notes for each other to find, or mailing them to each other. Don’t give up just yet.

If you know she’s the girl of your dreams, stay with her. I know it sounds sappy but true love is more important than true wealth. Just because you don’t see each other 24/7 doesn’t mean you can’t have a relationship.

6 months isn’t that long to get to know someone on top of not seeing her. I’ve been through the same thing for over a year. We’ve decided to see other people if we want but we’re both not seeing anyone and we have free time then to go out on a date. We still talk on the phone and say I love you but its less stressful this way. Just wait a while till you either have more time for each other or something else happends.

if you let her go it mostlikely wont be forever if it is meant tobe it will be…if not so oh well. you are young there is still lots of time lift in your life and hers im sure if you seperate your paths will cross again and who knows there may be someone even better for you out there…do what is best for your future if she loves you as much as you her than she will understand and she might even wait.
