A caring partner would want to help preserve a positive relationship with your parents. As long as your parents are healthy people, I have no reason to believe that they aren’t. It is fun to get to spend time with someone you’re dating, I understand the struggle between the two. I’m just wondering if you will be working enough to make it worth your time in another town -will you have any free time?

I don’t want to disappoint either. I’m worried if I go I’ll strain me and my parents relationship but if I don’t go then im disappointing my partner (we’ve been dating almost two years btw) and also myself. I genuinely don’t know what to do.

So look it at just from the job opportunities. You’ll save significantly less money without a job than you will with a job. Now if we add in the bf, I know it’s hard in college, but if he’s paying for dates, then you’re saving more money by not going out with your friends in your hometown and it’s a lot easier to do cheap/free dates than friend hangouts depending on what type of friends you have. If you work in bf’s town, where are you living and what does rent cost, or are you commuting?

Do your parents think you haven’t applied to jobs in your town as an adult excuse to be in his town? What percentage true is this?
