visione agony auntThis would be a relationship breaker for me, but it depends on your views... does education mean a lot to you? It does to me, so something like this would drive me away. If she continuously avoids the subject, I'm sorry but there is not much you can do. She needs to motivate herself to do these things. If education isn't important to her, then that's her lifestyle - it doesn't mean you should settle for it.

Is she sure she wants to drop out completely? Does she have any thoughts about continuing it later? Non-traditional students (people who enter college older than most college students) aren't uncommon. But for right now you should think about yourself and what you want, do what is best for you.. you can only influence her so much in her *own* decision.
