Is holding out for our relationship such a good idea?

Tagged as: Breaking up<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (14 January 2011) 1 Answers - (Newest, 14 January 2011)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, anonymous writes:

My ex boyfriend and I broke up because we were both going to seperate universities and felt that it was more important for us both right now to concentrate on our education. We have kept in contact since we've both moved and still see each other when we are at home for the holidays and our relationship is great. However I still really love him and tend to sometimes react possessively towards him as if he was still my boyfriend. Neither of us are seeing other people because we have always said that after university we wanted to reconcile our relationship and be a couple again. However I'm beginning to wonder whether holding on for this long (we are only in our first year of uni) is such a good idea?

A female reader, anonymous, writes (14 January 2011):

I don't see why you can not have a relationship while at uni. It doesn't matter if you are at different colleges and you can both acknowledge that your studies come first. If you want to keep a closer connection, I would do. In my experience relationships can break up over the college years, as you find you change and want different things. But I knew people who had a boy/girlfriend who was either at home or another college and stayed together. So you need to have a talk. Have you agreed you'll see other people over college years? If you feel you want a bit of a firmer footing, then I would suggest it.
