Hi all!!

so basically i met this guy online. and we've been chatting lots for about 4 weeks now. i really like him and we get on well. and of course at some point we were hoping to meet up.

but the thing is recently my circumstances at university have changed and iv had to take on a couple of extra classes. I really don't think i'm going to have time to maintain our relationship.

and to add to that he lives a 7 hour train journey away so its not going to be easy to go see him or for him to come see me.

i know I have to break it off for now because I don't have the time to give him and i don't want our relationship to be the reason i fail my exams.

I don't know how to do it! he's such a sensitive type of guy and he's really sweet that he goes out his way to make time to chat to me.

I feel awful about telling him its over for now.

Am I doing the right thing by breaking it off now before he gets even more hurt when I don't have time?

How shall I do it? What do I say?

Help is much appreciated

Thank you

xx.

Tom Obler  agony auntJust explain that now that Uni has started you time is being taken up by work and study. Therefore you wont be around as much as normal. Then let things slow down naturally.
