writes: Me and my girlfriend have been together a year. I love her very much. Since we have gone out, I have paid for the gas for us to travel (my vehicle ), every date (movies, eating out, etc.) This has never really bothered me, but I also am a college student and (if your in college you know) I have a lot of homework and papers to do. This takes up a good portion of my time, and in between I help her with her work as well. Sometimes (due to money issues or homework) I cant see her everyday. I tell her I wish I could I'm just exhausted after class and running low on money, and her house is a good 45 minute drive to go get her and bring her to my house (like she wants.) I haven't gotten to see her in a couple days, and while I cant get her she asks friends to go hang out, but at the same time makes me feel like crap because I cant go take her somewhere. I go to classes so I can provide for us when that time comes, I help her in her schooling, I take her out as much as I can, I drive us all over the place, I cook her meals when she is with me, I pretty much pamper her, and I even give her oral almost every time she asks. In return, I get no oral (she says it's disgusting), I never get pampered (unless I'm sick).... Is it wrong for me to feel unappreciated?

Yep you sure should feel unappreciated. It certainly looks like you give 99% and she barely contributes her 1%. Time for a nice long chat. If she can't see how things are so unequal then maybe you need to rethink the whole relationship. Good luck and keep us posted.
