We're in an LDR right now, but after next year, I'm hopefully going to choose a grad school near wherever he decides to go. I know I'll be upset if he doesn't choose to come to my city, but I also know that three more years here isn't as important as three years somewhere he'll get a good education. I want to be an OT and he wants to go into the ministry.
If only I had a SO... sigh.
My guy doesn't know what he wants to be yet, but I want to be a teacher.
But the better question is if we'll both transfer to the same university. I'm pretty sure we will though, because we both want to go to Texas A&M. Gig Em' Aggies!!
I want to pursue hair designing or Orchestra.
My boyfriend wants to pursue computer science.
I doubt they'll interfere. Cuz we'll be each other. and we always work around things=]
We both want to work in the psych field. We're planning (a couple years ahead, we're only freshmen in college) to try to go to grad school together :]
My ex used to talk about taking me to Korea with him when we got out of school. I thought it was a nice thought but if it really happened, I don't think I could leave my home here. I don't have to deal with that dilemma anymore though since he's my ex.
my colleges are most likely all up north... and his top choices are down south... =/
but we still have another year before we start worrying. hopefully we'll make it through the year, but everyone seems to fight and break up senior year. so i'm just enjoying what we have right now..
neither me nor my SO is what i'd call disgustingly ambitious so we can work out our lives to match since we don't need to have the best jobs/best colleges/etc.
we're both getting our master right now & working...next up, traveling & our PhDs :)
I'm studying to be an art teacher, but I may go back to school for art therapy if I end up deciding that teaching isn't for me. My boyfriend is still currently undecided, but will be starting school in the fall so he can begin planning a career path. We'll see how it goes.
When my boyfriend and I started dating we promised each other we wouldn't hold each other back from pursuing our dreams. We both wanted the same thing; to finish school, travel a bit, and have a decent job before we settled down. We've been together now for 2 years. I graduated before he did and I took a year off to do some traveling and soul searching lol. I'm in the process of applying to law school and he just finish his undergrad. Even though we went to different colleges, we were still in Florida and about an hour and half apart from each other. I've been applying to some schools out of state and in state and I'm really excited about going back to school. Now that he is done, he is taking a year off also. If I decide to move out of state, I'm just hoping that he will follow me, but it's not that easy, I can't have him drop everything and come with me...I guess we will have to do the long distance relationship.
I'm In an LDR
and its not so bad.
I've been with my SO for three years. Unfortunately our feelings for each other and our future plans conflict. When it comes to our future, we couldn't be more different. I've been thinking about this a lot lately and contemplating ending our relationship, but my current feelings make it too hard.
My ex is 14 years older than me. In every aspect except financial security, we both want different things. Like I wanted something serious. He wanted me, but also to have fun and party. The most mature thing he did was turn me down (intimately) because he knew we wouldn't last. I'm glad he did.
@bluedreamer85@xanga - I didn't know that. How far is your LDR?
@tigerdauphin@xanga - 3000 miles ...
@bluedreamer85@xanga - whoa.
My boyfriend and I are working hard and saving money to get married. Hopefully that's going to happen within two years.Â
I was to be a nurse. My SO is still trying to figure out what he wants.
But we do want to spend our lives with each other.
Hopefully nothing'll conflict. =)
I think he's much more solid in his plans for the future than I am. I have so many doubts about everything, and he's all self-assured and completely positive that everything we wish for the future can happen. When I'm with him looking in his eyes I believe it will all work out, but when I'm alone and dealing with the day to day things that make my life so complicated I just can't see how we can ever make it work.
As of right now, we both want to go into some kind of ministry. I'll be leaving for nine months this fall for a traveling ministry team and he'll be working on getting his gen eds out of the way. After that, neither of us really knows. We do know that when I come back we'll be getting engaged. Otherwise, we generally go with the flow. :)
she's leaving for college, but it is only an hour away. We'll milk it for as long as we can.
<3
He wants to be a lawyer and will be starting next year hopefully and I want to be a nurse and I will be starting nursing school this fall. Â I'll be done with school before him so I'll be bringing home the bacon for awhile. Â Haha
the timing conflicts a bit, will it last? that's still way too early to say.
My boyfriend is actually staying home for two more years and attending community college until I graduate.
Once that happens, we'll be going to two seperate universities about fifteen miles apart. He'll more than likely graduate before me.
But he wants to be a chemical enigneer and I'm looking to be an Agriculture teacher. Wherever he can get a job, I'll find a teaching job.
We're pretty set :)
My boyfriend lives in California, I'm in Ontario, Canada.
3000 or so miles apart.
I don't have a job right now, but he does.
We're trying to see each other as much as possible.
That's about it right now.
I don't think anything will happen for a while.
My boyfriend's top college choice right now is in California and I will probably be in DC at American U, which is an impending seperation we are both kind of stressing over.
I don't whether we'll stay together during that time or not- I'm pretty much giving him the deciding vote on it. I can do long distance, but I don't want to tie him down. If we do split, all I can hope is that we will find each other after college.
We will both be studying international relations, but he really wants a career in music. I feel like I will still be in prep for my career while he is living his dream (I want to work with the Dept. of State), but at this point, who knows?
