writes: This is so typical, so why am i so scared. Me and my boyfriend have been together for about 1 year and 8 months. he is 23, and i am 20. we are in love and care about each other so much. when we first met i lived at home with my parents and was taking college courses while working a small part time job, and he had an apartment with a roommate while he finished college. i was so happy and so was he. we got an apartment together at about 11 months in the relationship and things were going great, until he lost his job and struggled for work. he is now working 3 part time jobs and stressed to the max. he doesn't show nearly as much affection as he did when we first started dating. his mom has been helping him out with rent since we got the apartment, and since i am a student with a part time job i was not receiving enough income to help out like i wanted to. we have been fighting so much lately, and we get into arguments about the silliest things. i just feel so far from him. we have talked about it, and he just tells me please give me a chance to get my financial issues in gear and all this is stress.I thought about it, and i decided that me moving back in with my parents would make it easier on both of us. he is going to look for a one bedroom apartment, or even move in with his sister who lives about 10 minutes away. my parents live about 15 minutes from where we live right now. so we wouldn't be far from each other. it would be just like when we first started dating, and we wouldn't take each other for granted, and he wouldn't have to worry about trying to support the both us, and i would be concentrated in school and not stressing about money so much. i have about 3 years of school left and i am just so scared he is going to meet some one else, or break things off. i feel like if i move out then its as if we are taking a step away from each other, but i really think this will help us and not let this economy bullshit ruin what we have. i have never been happier with any person i have been in a relationship with. Please leave comments with your opinions on what you think is best..
