issues and stay together? Me and my girlfriend stay 2 hours away from each other, its not that far, but we both don't have cars, and we met on the internet. We've been together for 1 year already, but my girlfriend doesn't want to wait for me to graduate from school, for us to take the next step in our relationship. She feels that she's going to be ahead of me in the financial area of our relationship a year from now, so she doesn't wanna wait on me that long. She thinks that i should work while I go to school, not sit on my behind and receive a school check to keep me going while I am a student. I think that i should focus all my attention in school, and not work until I graduate. I mean come on, it's already hard enough to find a job when u have a free schedule, imagine how hard it would be to find work while in school. Its like she's giving me an ultimatum, either find a hustle while in school, or the relationship could end. I feel that she wants her ice cream with milk and water. We get along mentally, emotionally, and sexually, so basically we are in love. But financially, I lack money until I graduate. I feel like, why would you try and find another man that's either going to lack money or compatible personality, when u have a man that u love and get along with now, but lacks status. I feel like U can work to obtain money, but you cant make love just appear. I feel like she's allowing love to pass her by, because of an issue that can and will be solved in another year. If she waits, she can have her ice cream with milk and water...dont you think so? I jus want a second opinion on what people think we should do at this point....call it a day, or stay together?
