Call Maria, Becky, etc. In other words cheat on her.
Susan
Have her over while you study or sleep together and spend time together.
Michele
explain to her that u dont have the time or money to be going out all the time…
but u should try to take her out at least once a week even just for dinner…
Russell
she needs to understand that you are a busy man, ask her to pay for everything and see if she changes her mind. go to free concerts, events, beach, park, walk the dog, etc.
Melinda
Tell her how she needs to understand..there’s nothing wrong with her flipping the bill to go out.. if that’s a problem pull out some old movies and curl up on the couch with her. There’s things around this. If she doesn’t understand - then she’s not with you for you! Good luck!
Christine
Well tell her whats up and everything. Im sure she’ll understand and find other ways of doing things. If not, then she doesnt care and obviously is only thinking of herself. good luck!!!!!!!!!!!!!

your girlfriend should be understanding of this things, but you should also make the relationship work if you really liked her there are inexpensive ways to show that you care its not just about dating or going to the mall, you can hang at your place,cook a dinner for two, have a stroll in the park, stuff like that, and do find the time to save for saturday so that both of you can have a good time, if you cannot balance your life, its also pretty unfair for you to confess that you love her when you are not willing to give her time of your life, if you cannot do that then just break up and let things go their natural course and focus on your studies, the girls can come later.

if she really does understand your situation, and if you explain it to her clearly, she’ll back off and realize that it can’t all be fun and games, even if you do want to spend time with her. let her know that if you had the money and free time, you’d definitely do something with her. otherwise, she’ll feel like there isn’t a relationship between you two at all.
but you need to make a decision as well. does your future and, uh, working on your apartment come before your social life? in my opinion it’s better to focus on school and if you say you have no time, then it obviously requires concentration and dedication.

be together

if ur gf loves u she should understand ur situation at the moment but u do need to make some time for her.. if u can come out.. get her to come see u and make her dinner or something…

Sometimes someone needs to be alone for a while.

1. You’ve got to set aside some time for her.
2. She’s got to be a bit more understanding.
If you’re able to at least rent movies and watch them at home, that’s something. I hope she can appreciate that, especially if she knows you’re running low on funds.
If you think she wouldn’t be a distraction, she can help you study. That’s spending time together. It might not be anything romantic, but at least she’ll have some time with you, and she’ll know that you’re trying to keep her happy.
You said you have to work on your apartment. Well, you should try to spend, say….three hours of working on it one Saturday (or the best day for you), and then spend time with your girlfriend for a few hours, and then study during the rest of the day or night. Alternate those work days and time spend with your girlfriend. This weekend… “X” amount of time divided to be spent with her, studying and working on the apartment.
If she knows your apartment needs work done to it, she needs to realize that she can’t complain if you’re trying to improve your living space. Everyone deserves a decent place to live, and she should be proud that you’re able to make repairs on your own.
Good luck.

I know that you said that you don’t have much time to do much then study or working on your apartment. But i would try to sit down with your girlfriend and ask why she is so unhappy. I know she probable unhappy because she cant see you that often. Then ask her why she would want him to put a pause on your life just make her happy. If you love her, then you need to tell her that you love her. And tell her that you wouldn’t be doing this if you knew it wasn’t good for your life. Ask her if she love you enough to be patient. And try at least to make time for her at least once or twice a week. And if you don’t the money to go do something. There is so many things and ways to tell each other that you love one another. Like going on walks in the evening, watch the sun go down. watch a movie at home etc…… There is so many i can’t even count.
