Re: Moving most likely and unsure about school. - March 1st 2014, 07:44 PM

With regards to whether or not you can take those courses online, it's best to talk to the schools directly. Every school will have different policies about those kinds of things, and you'll get the most accurate information from those schools directly.

Moving away from your friends and family can be hard, especially if it's not a temporary move. At the end of the day, we need to make these big decisions in our lives, and you need to weigh the pros and cons. What is most important to you right now? Is it being close to your boyfriend? Being in your niece's life? Being close to your family? I know it's going to be difficult to choose, but in this case, you really need to prioritize.

Maybe you should talk to your boyfriend about how you feel. I know that he feels it's necessary to move to be closer to his family, but what about your family? Personally, I don't see how it's fair to have you move out-of-state to be with his family, when you're going to leave your family behind - especially if your family is really important to you, and you've told him that. I know relationships make moving difficult, but like I said before, you really need to prioritize and make those hard decisions. But, my advice would be to talk to him about it.

After reading this, I'm not sure that this is even a healthy relationship for you to be in. I could be completely wrong, but I feel this way because of how certain things are worded and because of certain things that have been said. I know that you've been together for a while now, and it's normal to want a proposal. But I feel like you may think that because you're moving to a new state primarily for him, that you somehow deserve a proposal. I'm not sure how I feel about this because a proposal is something that should happen naturally, and you shouldn't agree to move partially because you're expecting something out of it.

That whole last paragraph doesn't sit right with me. I know that arguments can really put a damper on things, but they really shouldn't prevent someone from proposing - twice. If a guy was serious about proposing, I feel like an argument shouldn't prevent him from doing that. It may prevent him from proposing that same night, but what about in a couple of days? Or the following week? Now, all of a sudden, he's not ready? To me, this shows that he's not sure about the whole relationship. I would never move out-of-state in this situation, to be completely honest.

With all of this being said, you don't have to listen to me. This is merely my own opinion, and you know and understand your situation better than I ever will. Whatever you decide, do what you feel is best for you.

Good luck.
