When we met each other 5 months ago my girlfriend (19F) and I (20M) both had tons of time since it was summer vacation and neither of us really did anything. She did work 3 times a week (and still does as she decided to take a gap year), but since I really did stay at home most of the time we were lucky enough to spend most time texting.

Now though, it's completely different. I gave university a second try which took me away from home most of everyday, and so also away from her. That was still manageable since we still could text between classes and sometimes during, but I dropped out after about 6 weeks and had to start working full time which makes it impossible to do so. I also still live with my parents, and every moment I'm home they need me to drive my siblings around, which gives us even less time to text.

After the last time we saw each other I was given the possibility to move with her since her parents have a company where I can work and an appartment where I may live, and while I don't want to do that for a variety of reasons. However, this does seem more and more appealing every day even though it still would be the worst thing for both out futures.

I am aware that all of this is part of adult life, but it still hurts that we basically only have an hour or two to be able to text every day. Even more so after we used to easily text 10 hours a day and that I know have the idea of moving to her stuck in my head...

Sorry for wallowing in self-pity, but I just needed to tell someone and my girlfriend had a horrible day at work and went to bed already
