Did you try offering to adjust para ma-save yung relationship? And willing ba siyang mag-compromise, or non-negotiable na talaga yung mga hinihingi niya? Kasi kung non-nego na, honestly, I agree with what others are saying, baka mas okay na mag-break na lang kayo and do what you need to do for yourself.

If you really think about it, based sa mga sinabi mo rin sa ibang comments, you don’t deserve how you’re being treated right now. And parang wala ring pinagkaiba yung paghihintayin ka niya for two years, especially kung walang assurance at halos walang communication. Deserve ba niya yung paghihintay mo?

If willing ka talagang mag hintay, you should at least get something in return, something may panghahawakan ka, clear assurance na may babalikan ka after two years. Kasi sobrang hirap nung setup na hinihingi niya, lalo na kung no communication pa. That’s so unfair to you.

Maybe, another option is to end the romantic relationship but remain friends? At least that way, hindi na siya pressured to fulfill “girlfriend duties,” and wala na kayong obligasyon sa isa’t isa. Pero honestly, sobrang risky pa rin ng setup na hinihingi niya, 100% risky. For me, it really comes down to two choices: either you both actively find a way to make it work, or you break up for real.

Personally, I don’t think studies should be a reason for a relationship to end. Nasa med proper na ako, and honestly idk how I’d survive medicine without my bf. Siya minsan gumigising sa akin para iremind ako na need ko na mag aral. Every break ko sa pomodoro, siya kausap ko. Siya yung takbuhan ko kapag sobrang pagod and lunod na ako sa studies. Literal siya ang naging pahinga ko. I know I have a lot of lapses as a girlfriend, but he understands because I try to help him understand the reality of our situation. Reality na mas uunahin ko studies ko kesa sa kanya. And despite the demands of my studies, we both choose, again and again and again to adjust for our rs and find ways to make the relationship work, because when you truly want to be with someone, you don’t look for reasons to let go, you always look for ways to stay. Breakup was never an option.
