My GF wants to study OS!
 

Been with my girl for 2 years now.

Was hoping it would become a permanent thing... I'm quite sure she feels the same way.

But.... she lays on me that she wants to go overseas to study! For at least a year. She says she'll have no problem staying faithful to me and I believe her but dang...

As much as I love her, I don't know if at 23 I should be putting my life on hold for a few years to wait around for her to get back. I've got a good job here and my adult stuff isn't big enough to go full-time yet.

1) Should I cut her loose?

2) Should I wait for her?

3) Should I go with her?

if u can save enough money go with her and take ur laptop ;) hehe. otherwise wait if u love her :)

Should either cut her loose or go with her, that is if she wants you to. But I wouldn't try to do the long distance thing. And at 23 you should wait for no one! If it is meant to be...it will happen!

Plus the long distance thing works for abouit two weeks. Then all that, "I promise to stay faithful" crap flys right out the window. All it takes is a little time away to forget what it like being togeather, a few drinks at a local pub, and the right person making the moves and "faithful" is a distant thought.

Take advice from a 30 year old married codger who never really traveled...
Either:
1) go with her and have a great time traveling and doing porn and getting a job in a cool new place and wind up bonding with her even more because of the shared excitement and adventure and because you were willing to travel with her.

-or-

2)cut her loose and stay behind. At 23 you don't want to be in a multi-year long distance relationship, believe me on that one. You will wind up resenting her. If she comes back and the spark is still there then you can pick it up where you left off.

:2 cents:

Long distance relationships really don't work. No matter how in love you think you are or any of that, they don't work. Keep that in mind.

Or you go with her or you leave her(and when she back you can see what happens)

If I broke up with her, I could never take her back...

The thought of all those dicks taking up residence in the ass that I conquered would put me off.

A year is not too bad...

If you can't go with her, make sure you visit or she visits you at least during all the major holidays...

Long distance relationship never worked for me....it will be a matter of time before she or you cheat...trust me on this :)
sad but true...

stop the relationship and when she gets back see if you both are still interested

Agreed...most of the times it's the guy that cheats...

So if you do cheat, you'll have to be able to hide it from her and not tell her, which can be hard if you're an honest/decent guy

Nicely put..

Stop crying and cut her loose!

Whereabouts overseas, exactly? Tell her to come to Amsterdam, I'll take care of her for you :Graucho

Tell her that if she goes overseas to not expect you to wait for her.

break it off, it wont last and you both should be having fun not worrying about what each other are doing.

Could not have said it better

had a bad experience ? :winkwink:

well said and true
:2 cents:

lock her in your basement and tell her family she went overseas

long distance never works. you're too young to waste 2 years of your life.

Go with her man!!!:thumbsup

the power in GFY is when people ask for advice for non-business descions...is GFY that powerful or people are without any 'real' friends
