So here's the jist of what happened to me the past few months:
- Went to Asia to be with the GF for a couple months... Some stupid fights in between
- Realized I needed to come back to the US to take care of my own life stuff
- LDRing it with the GF again
- Still trying to figure out my life
Her mom found out that she's dating a foreigner and said that I need to prove that I can take care of her. It's most likely that I will have to move to Asia if I see this relationship lasting foreverish. I'm willing to make a permanent move outside of the country. But how does that go along with my own plans?
I'm not sure.
Right now I'm narrowing down my career options so that hopefully I can go to graduate school and be successful in... something. I know that if you go to graduate school, you have to be passionate and really want to study whatever you study. I am also wondering how that will go along with having this relationship. I have to be able to support her. I feel like I have to gain some US experience that will be transferable to something I could do if I move to Asia. The only thing I can think of is ESL teaching.
Friends have told me that I should pursue what I want to pursue regardless of anybody else. I have some friends that have experienced how it's like to live solely through their partner and regretted not focusing enough on their life. I should probably learn from their mistakes although I have never been in a year or longer relationship so far. The only thing I know for certain is that I have always wanted a relationship with someone. I need to have that similar type of want for graduate school if I continue my education. It's such a pain trying to figure it all out.
