I have a serious problem here that might affect some of the relationships I have and make people look down on me.
It's to do with my education. If I finish college well enough, I can move onto university (In the UK they are two separate things) but the course I want to do, Music Technology, is only available at one place in my city, which doens't have student accomodation, and my parents want me to go to a proper university that does have that so I can "Live independently" but to do that I would have to go to another city.
THe problem with that is that I have a boyfriend, and he's no ordinary boyfriend who can just wait for me, no, he has problems and gets lonley and depressed a lot, and if I'm stuck in another city and I can't always be there for him, he says we might have to break up, which neither of us wants, but he says there's no point in us being in a long distance relationship, even if I am in the nearest city to my city.
Anyway, I don't know what to do. My parents might not like it if I decide to stay in this city, and what if one of hte universities in another city offers me a place but not the on in this city so I have no choice anyway? My boyfriend might not like it if he can't walsy visit me and I can't always visit him, if we can't see each other enough. If we break up, there are only 2 things that stop us getting back together: One of us finding someone else, which he isn't likely to do, or him doing somehting very bad to himself (If you know what I mean).
So what can I do about this so I can please everyone and myself?
That's pretty big of you to think about his needs like that. If you go, you will have to break up, yes. But if you stay you might miss out on something good.... same if you go. It's one of the hardest choices we have to make as people
