How to deal with leaving my boyfriend for his own success?

I left my boyfriend last night for his own good. He's an engineering student and the more his program progresses, the less time he has. I felt like I needed to take myself away from the situation for his own good. I know how much he cares about his program and I love him so much I decided to sacrifice my emotional state for him to be able to succeed.

How do I deal with this and what should I do?

    Just keep reminding yourself why you did it and remember this doesn't have to be forever. After his program there is a huge chance you too could get back together. My advice would be just stay strong and with time it will get easier.

    P.S. You are awesome to let him follow his dream, if I was him I would wait for you and never let you go.

    that just sounds daft , he doesn't study engineering 24/7 he would have at least 12-14 hours a day for sleep and other things and 18 hours at weekends
