did she make the right choice

okay something happened at school 2day, one of my friends actually broke up with her boyfriend due to her not having the full concentration of her GCSE's however when she did like the guy, she truly liked him liked him!
even before she was going to break up with him today, she was almost in tears! :frown: i felt sorry for the both of them! this was done before at the end of school and as i walked home i started thinking weather that was a right choice and if anyone would choose there GCSE's over their bf? would you, i mean this was the first ever guy who she went out with, not only that but she had her first kiss with him too, would you break up with your first love?
i'm sorry if this sounds like a meanless thread but i really want to get things stright in my head! :redface:

I think she is blatently using her boyfriend as a scapegoat for her own lack of concentration. If she was really bothered about her schoolwork she could quite easily balance work and relationship commitments

i'm going to sound really blunt here, but i think what she did was right.
ok maybe breaking up with him wasn't the best way around it, she could've slowed down the relationship, but trust me.. if you don't get your gcse's right first time, it can be a pain in the backside.
i'm sure she knows him really well to know whether he was actually distracting her from her gcses, and tbh any decent guy shouldn't.

i probably sound like a teacher saying it but educations really important. i know so many people who've lost it all by being distracted and its not a nice feeling.

nothing is going to change, she will still slack off her school work and she will realise shes been a complete twit and regret it

if they are truly meant to be, they will get back together after GCSE's are done with

I think she made the wrong choice. If shes got time to see friends then shes got time for a boyfriend. You can't put your life on hold forever, after gcse's it'll be A levels, after A levels it'll be uni and after uni it'll be in career, does she expect to be single forever?
Everyone has pressure to deal with, but thats just life.

i said to her that why doesnt she slow things down and if its really in the way, she can do like a long distance thing were they can see each other in school talk, kiss whatever but when shes at home she has to concentrate and thats all but i gess she thought different
