I broke up with a girl i was in love with for my future, right thing to do?

i broke up with her 2 years ago and there has not been a day that i haven't thought about her.

we lived together when i used to go to purdue university for 2 years and been together for 3.

i had to keep 2 jobs just to pay bills and tuition and all i got in return from her was bitching. i started to fail ALL of my classes and i knew it wasn't heading the right way.

so i broke up with her even though we both loved each other a lot. i now live the bum life in my fathers basement to save up some money. i have been back in school getting good grades and will transfer to a dormatory in fall while majoring in econ.

so do you think it was the right thing for me to do....to break up with her and break her heart? and why can't i stop thinking about her....its been little more then 2 years now...i even have vivid dreams about her.

would you pick bright future? or

low paying job, no education, and living with the love of your life.

realistic answers only please.

    Reason y u stl think of her - Because you feel the guilt for being the prime catalyst in your breakup. You see that as an unconscious way of thinking about her. I think you did a good job there buddy by getting out of that relationship. All relationships have their owns pros n cons just like yours. It seems that you really couldn't cope with her "bitching" while studying which is pretty normal. If she loved you like you did, she would have taken steps to ensure you are comfortable in the relation. Learning about what you do now, was great man. Keep up the good work. Stop thinking about her coz you don't know if she is sobbing for you or having a good time with someone else. It was 2 years ago and bygones should be bygones. Now, it is your future you should be worried about. Remember, women need men who can earn. Even if Camaroun Diaz falls in love with you, she would obviously need one more thing from you apart from your LOVE on a daily basis and that is MONEY! So get where you are going and once there, you shall have a smile on your face. Good Luck.

    Hello,

    You mention lots of issues here.

    What did she complain about while you were working so hard at your jobs and school? Was she upset that your time was not equally divided between your responsibilities and her or was she upset that you didn't have more money? In what ways did she show she loved you?

    Don't be so hard on yourself--"a bum life" You are back on school earning good grades and doing what it takes to save and complete your degree. You should be proud of being someone able to make sacrifices to reach your goal.

    I wonder if your patience to work toward a goal did not match with her lack of patience.

    Perhaps you have vivid dreams of her because she was in your life for so long at a young age. She was the first woman you lived with--you will always remember her --but that doesn't mean she is THE ONE. Keep working on your goal and find someone who can love you for you, your dedication and your patience. You can hold onto the good things about her and maybe find them in another woman who is willing to be in your life while you build your life and share you with your dreams and help you with your responsibilities--and has some dreams and responsibilities of her own.

    Good luck

    Well, from what you say you broke up her because you were too busy. Which doesn't seem like a very good reason in itself. Stay with your Dad if you can until you finish school if you're having money problems. You need to pick out your priorities.

    That's a tough one although maybe in 2 years she has matured. I would call her up and maybe you could be friends and see what happens. As friends she will have to understand how hard your life is and how much time you have to dedicate to it for it to work. I would try it but remember your school is most important right now.

    why was she bitching if she knew you had to pay the bills?

    if you've been thinking about her for 2 years then it definitly means that your in love.i would go for the girl but it didnt seem like you guys werent getting along very well and for that reason i think you should get over her. go see someone else and if it doesnt seem the same then you should go with the love of your life

    Look man, this is a no brainer. Get your schooling out of the way and then look her up after you graduate and get a job.

    If you really want to go back to her just remember, she still knows how to bixch. If it isn't about one thing, she will find something else. Trust me on that.

    Good Luck

    It was the right choice and deep in your heart you know it. If you two were meant to be it will work itself out.

    I would have done the same thing.

    Call her up. Maybe now that you are both older and more mature you can try to work it out. Good luck.
