How to support my girlfriend in nursing school?

[Nick0220]

My girlfriend is going to nursing school and i didnt realize how much this would change our relationship. She works a full time job and goes to school so she never has time for me or housr work. I manage to do the house work without complaining but sometimes I do wish she would help but I understand she has enough on her plate. We have talked about the house work and agreed that I would handle the house so she didn't have to worry about it, when i go to the store i buy her favorite snack and favorite fast food so she can be happy, recently we moved out of our apartment and i bought her a house. But ever since we have moved in we have had nothing but fights about little things and recently we had our biggest one about her not having time for me anymore and changing the way she use to be. I know she has alot on her plate but I really felt like we needed to talk about and neither of us know how to fix things, I love her so much and i know she loves me too but I don't know if we will make it. I have offered to get a second job so she can quit her job and ONLY focus on school but she doesn't want me to stress more, I just don't know what us I can do or how I can be more understanding and supportive the way I need to be. Please help.

Nursing school is hard. She needs all the support from you. But she should at least take out one date night/time spent together per week for you--even if it's just one hour of watching TV together. It's a really hard situation, but if she is worth it...you won't give up.

I hope this is not some trolling post.

Nursing school won't last forever. And no one ever died of dirty dishes in the kitchen sink.

Just think ahead to when school slows down or finishes and realize that things should improve. You DID make the commitment to be more assistive while she went to school, and she took you up on it. Just bear with it.
