going to break up with my bf, he’s an amazing guy but our goals are too separate and he needs a nara smith type girl, not me. i love him more than life, i need to do it in person but i wont see him for like 2 weeks so i have to live with this guilt.

I’ve been there and the guilt is not easy to deal with. In the time leading up to the break up it might be difficult to find the energy to be a good partner when you’ve already checked out of the relationship mentally. You’re doing whats best for both of you though. I hope you have an easier time than I did and if you need someone to talk about it with my dms are open.

he has no goals aside from wanting to get engaged in 3-4 years, we’ve only been together a few months but personally when that time comes i won’t be in the state. i want to go to PA school for 2 years which requires 1 year of class room education and 1 year of randomly assigned residency, switching every 6 months. i am a sophomore rn and still have a lot of school, he wants a housewife and a traditional marriage even though he says that im what he wants. he’s also very christian, im agnostic

Breaking up with him is a good idea then, that’s sad though

thank you, i’m trying to tell myself that. i know he’ll find someone better and it’s messed up but i want him to. he needs to find someone better for him and i need someone who understands my stress about school and aligns with my goals
