How can me and my bf stay together at uni?

I'm with this. Ignore the advice to live apart or whatever. Maybe it is because I'm tired of the (usually right) cynics talking about how relationships are **** and fall apart and going to uni is somehow the most important thing ever and you can't possibly want anything else in life, so **** relationships.


You know you want to be with your boyfriend and that is fine. Try sharing a place in the town that isn't uni accommodation, sorted.

TSR: Bitter lonely posters (probably virgins) tell people to break up, not because the situation usually merits it but simply because they are just that bitter.

Wow! Someone who actually knows what their talking about your probably right about the virgin thing too LOL.

P.S to all those who said we will suffocate eachotger we already live together it won't be much different and just because your all syinical about relationships and don't have partners doesn't mean everyone else at uni will be like you. There will be lots of other couples like me and my boyfriend. So I don't agree at all!

I was giving you advice, and I suspect a lot of people were too, on the basis of having been to uni and had a serious relationship when i went there. I didn't live with my then boyfriend when i went, but we may as well have done the amount of time we spend at each other's parents. I chose to go to Uni in London so he was only a 15 min train ride away, we saw each other all the time.

About halfway through my first year, I realised that I was pretty isolated. I knew people in my halls, and we went out, but because I spent so much time with Mark, it had been hard to make close friendships. People knew us as a 'unit', and didn't try to break into that.

I am NOT saying that you and your boyfriend will be the same; but I think it's only fair to point this out as having been there, done that, and regretted not doing it slightly differently. I don't wish I'd broken up with him before I went, that's ridiculous. But I do wish I had made more of an effort to get to know people as 'amanda', not 'amandaandmark'. that's all i was trying to say...
