Feeling neglected??
Okay this may be a little over exaggerated but I, 17 F and my partner, 18 F have been dating for a year.
She’s doing her Finals/A levels/ Leaving Cert right now and she’s been preparing for them basically the whole time we dated.
I’m a grade younger so I don’t fully understand how it feels etc. but I have supported her for the whole year, mentally and physically.
Especially for the 6 months prior leading up to exams, giving her notes of achievement, flowers for motivation, making the journey to see her(not the other way around bcs she has to study), just listening to her rants about anything.
It wasn’t always like this though, used to be quite equal from both sides. I fully understand the pressure she’s under, I feel so guilty for even feeling this way but ig i js miss how it was?? Even after exams she’s going away for a month so i can’t really spend any time with her then. But when she talks about after exams, she can’t wait and is excited to do certain stuff but she doesn’t mention anything with me? We have a day planned but the rest will be a blur (we only have a week till she leave).
Then summer ends and she’ll be in college and I’ll still be in High/Secondary school, doing my final exams.
Not really sure what i’m trying to say, maybe I’m scared of being left behind? The future?
Guys don’t get it wrong, she’s amazing to me and treats me so well, we’re very good at communicating, it’s js this little thing.
So yeah…advice…
