Failed school and didn't get to apply to University, the deadline is in a week and I won't make it. GF said that our relationship is riding on if I make it into school or not. She just met some well put together Christian boi and is gushing about him... May I have an F?

Wishing you the best!

Hope everything works out, and even if it doesn't it's still really important to know what's best for you, even if at the time it feels awful. If she's interested in other guys or only wanted to date you for potential future income then she is NOT the dreamy person you probably see her as right now. I know it's hard to break up with someone you care about, I recently broke up with my boyfriend after he made it clear he wanted more that one partner in an open relationship. I felt absolutely horrible breaking up with him at the time as I truly thought he was the one for me, but even a week later I started feeling better then I had in months. I realized how he was dragging my emotions down and basically blackmailing me by constantly talking about the cute girls at his work or showing me porn he thought was crazy hot. You should also know it's her choice if she's more interested in other people, and doesn't mean either of you did anything wrong. It just means your not meant for each other and your better off spending time looking for the one for you rather than wasting time and putting so much energy in someone who in the end isn't the right fit, and will just end up breaking up with you sooner ro later.

I know poetry is a very personal and subjective matter, but anyway here's a quote from one of my favorite writers that really helped me through the break up.

"Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened."

Anyway I hope everything works out the best for you, whether or not the best means with or without her. And if you ever want someone to help walk you through it, or just talk about your feelings you can always private messages me if you'd rather have some privacy.
