Life

[dating_yoda_phd]

So, I've talked to a lot of you about this already, but life is really sucking for me right now. Aside from getting waitlisted/denied from most of the law schools I've heard back from, my boyfriend is being completely unsupportive, depressed, and unwilling to compromise to ensure that we have a life TOGETHER (not dating but apart) for the three years following college. I can't possibly sympathize, because I would do anything for him if the roles were reversed (with the exception of live within 5 hours of his family), and the fact that the thought/courtesy is not reciprocated hurts my feelings more than you can possibly imagine. We're pretty much at a stalemate and I'm left without options--he's going to make his decision regardless of what I think or say. It's coming down to whether or not I think I should stick it out and let him be a spoiled, self-concerned little boy and live apart, or demand that we be together or no longer be a couple.  ::sigh:: I love him more than anything, and I know we'd made it through THREE YEARS apart, but we'll both be miserable in the meantime and what is the fucking point of that? We can barely spend a summer apart without fighting on a weekly basis, so imagine three years?!

It doesn't help that CYNTHIA is throwing a fucking gargantuan wrench in everything either...telling him that not coming back to NY makes him a bad son who is disrespectful of the family and blah blah blah.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I know everything will work out in the end, but law school is miserable enough in the first place--I'd rather not spend it in miserable opportunity-less Holland, OH away from my boyfriend for the next three years (the amount of time we've been together to date). I need help :(
