I've never felt this way before - should I move on?

Question - (13 November 2008) 1 Answers - (Newest, 13 November 2008)
A male United Kingdom age 36-40, anonymous writes:

I was going out with my girlfriend for 8 mouths. We knew each other from high school; in fact we were in the same year together, and I was very good friends with her brother. Though we went to the same school, we went out with each other. That was until we both went to university 3 years later. I knew she liked me; her brother would tell me all the time.

So one night we bumped into each other on Valentine’s Day. From there on, we started seeing each other. I didn't fall in love with her until 2 months into our relationship and from there on everything seemed to be going really well. I knew we were truly in love. We used to argue a bit, though no more than any other couple. About 7 months into our relationship I felt things starting to change. I play a lot of rugby at quite a high level and now that I’ve finished university and I’m working, so it’s hard to make time for her.

Looking back I think that’s why she decided we weren’t right for each other. You see, she’s still in university going out all the time. Different to what I’m doing now. So one night we meet up, I knew things were bad because she was crying her eyes out. She said she wanted time on her own to think about things and we shouldn’t be a couple for now. She wanted to be friends though, which I thought was weird? Is there a chance we could sort things out or is it just not meant to be? Should I move on, though I have never felt this way about anyone before? I did try and talk to her about things but she still felt the same.

A female reader, anonymous, writes (13 November 2008):

Its difficult for both of you because you're experiencing different lives. You're out of the university thing and she's still in it. Tell her about your feelings and that you really want to make it. Although its difficult to meet up but both of you can surely spend at least once a day for quality time. If you find meeting up is difficult you can always communicate via e-mail, chatting, skype, webcam n etc. Its a matter of whether both of you really want to commit in the relationship.
