I need help...i dont know what to do!

Okay so im involved with this guy and we're in a long distance relationship everything so far is going extremely well and im so happy with him and basically everything is great.

But there is one little problem, well it might be a big problem. YOu see I am in college and im about to finish my first year and i will become a sophomore and well im so proud of myself. BUT well my bf is not in college at the moment and apparently he has no plans of getting into college at ALL. Im not so happy with that part but i cant really force him into enrolling, can I ???

My sister in law keeps telling me that in the long run we're going to end up with problems becuz i will have a degree and he wont and she keeps making me wonder if thats really what i need and that i deserve much better and i should be with a guy whos on the same path as me. I cant imagine leaving my bf right now and of course i keep telling my sis in law that my goals are still the same and i will never leave college becuz hes not in college.

Well i guess what i really need help in is should i really end my relationship with my bf right now becuz everyong is practically predicting my future with him???

I dunnno what to do now or what to think and i dont know if i should talk to im about it again.SHould i ask him what his goals are for his future and what are his plans? Or am i just going to make him feel stupid???

Please someone i need someone else's advice.

College is not for everyone, just because he doesn't go right now, doesn't mean he wouldn't later. As long as he is employed, taking care of himself and loving you why does a degree matter?

I was great at school, my bf was not, I would not dump him just because he didn't go to college, he works his butt off regardless.

Regardless about college or not, look on the positive to this. you're making it big in your life with all these plans with college and only because he isn't going at all doesn't mean the relationship would flop. the most important thing is that the both of you love and care for each other in anything and well that he can mostly be able to support at the same time (like have a job, doesn't matter about the degree or anything in that matter) so don't think because predicting the future would change anything because it's only a prediciton, so it hasn't happened or taken place you know.

Diferences in relationships are good, while you will have the qualifications who knows he might end up with an apprencticeship or something, my bf didn't even complete high school while i've gone on to and graduated from further education and its never caused any problems. Follow your heart.

Yeah you guys are right. To me since the beginning it kinda did bother me that he wasnt in college like me eventhough for most of my high school years i always thought that college wasnt for me either. But in a way i think its expected of me and i want to make my parents proud who are watching me from heaven. Its the least i can do right make something out of me.

But anyhoo, i never thought that me having a degree and he wouldnt would cause problems between us in the future, because believe me i do want a future with him. I believe that all thats important is that we both care for each other love each other and support each other in any decision we make.

In a way i had already accepted the fact that college wasnt for him and as long as he has a decent job that will actually be able to support him and US in the long run then i was fine.

What does it matter, honestly, if one has a degree and one doesn't? Jobs need all sorts of things and degree's aren't the only things that determine a job.
I mean, in my opinion, thats like saying, marcus has a penis and i don't. It's not right, lol.
Bad comparison i know, but it's the same principle. If you're happy with him and he's happy with you, it has NOTHING to do with anyone else.
Maybe you'll work it out and stay together, maybe not. Thats the great thing about the future, no one can predict it!
So have fun with him and love him and what will be, will be
*Gem*

On a side note, neither me nor Marcus went to uni (in england) and we've both got great jobs and lives. So why does he need college/uni? It's not for everyone.

Yeah i understand that college isnt for everyone, like i had said i didnt even think it was for me but well now amazingly im almost finished with my first year. and its not really important to me if he gets into college or not as long as in the long run he's able to take care of himself and the both of us then thats perfectly okay with me.

Thx you guys for the advice.
