You meet someone. He's perfect on paper and great in person, but somehow you guys just keep fighting, about everything, stemming from that you are both so busy that you lack time to see eachother. It's been a month, and you're getting tired of it. What do you do?

For some reason your obviously not ready to properly be in this relationship. You either need to drop things that are keeping you too busy to fix your relationship OR you need to take a short break. Sometimes, you might meet the right person but it is at the wrong time. And the only thing you can do to save your relationship is to let that person go. It sounds like you are both stressed out and busy, and perhaps all of these factors make you act immature around one another and argue. I would try to drop some of the things that are preoccupying you, and if you can't drop them you should drop eachother. If you are truely meant, you will get back together when the time is right.

I know what it's like to be in a relationship during school. Unfortunatley, to solve our problems we decided to move in together... what a mistake that was. I suggest making your relationship less serious and then picking it back up in what 2 months?? Thats when my semesters over I believe. 2 Months isn't alot of time, and then you two can figure things out and make plans for the future when your not pre-occupied.

This is a great topic. Personally I would ask myself 1 question. Is this what I want for the rest of my life. If the answer is no. The move on. If you enjoy fighting, than continue with things as they are. If you think this relationship is worth saving, Then changes and compromises need to be made by both parties. Good luck.

I hope it's worth saving. He's a really amazing guy. I just wish that both of us had less stress in our lives. I'm going to work hard to save this before I give up, but eventually I may realize it's time to move on. Thank you for your advice!

Not sure what I would do... but more than likely I'd try to work it out, fins away around it so you 2 can see each other more. You shouldn't be fighting over not having time to see each other...it's more than likely a bigger problem than that. Try to figure it out and resolve the issues. If you two are unsuccessful.....then you'll have to call the relationship quits, move on, and find someone that makes you happy.

I wish that it would work out, really. This is an amazing guy, and if we had time (I work and go to school, and he's in law school) we'd be so amazing together... but there's so much stress with both of our lives with all of the things we do, that it's hard.
