I know that this may not be a life crisis, but decided I would ask fellow nursing students how they would deal with my situation. I am in my first quarter of nursing school, as all of you may know, it is extremely stressful and time consuming. I have been with my boyfriend for nearly 4 years, and throughout the years we have made plans together about our future. I feel that he has been very supportive of me, up until I actually started school. I feel that we are slowly growing apart, which really hurts. I've told him numerous times that my success is his success and that all of my hard work will pay of in the end for our future together. This is something much easier said than done. He tells me all of the time that he feels neglected, and I can't help but feel frustrated that I am not getting any support or understanding from him. I feel like no one knows how I feel, I am torn. I find myself wanting to see him less and less each day (we do not live together). Long ago (when I didn't have to study 24/7) we would spend pretty much all of our time together and would be sad with one day apart. We would be home bodies. I feel that since I've started school his priorities and interests have changed drastically. I am more of a homebody and not interested in clubbing or partying and NOW he is... I don't know what to do anymore... Is it time to give up on my relationship or should I work harder to make it work?? I feel so worn out from school that I don't have any energy for a boyfriend, but I would be lost without him.. What to do??
