I still love her, and she still loves me. How can I convince her we can still keep up the relationship? Reply to this Question

 I think CD was right on. You should tell her that you really like her and that you really support her prioritizing her studies. Tell her that you're alright not seeing her as much and that you want her to do well in school.
If she really needs space and time to do her studying, then you need to be a good guy and allow her her space. Maybe a relationship just isn't what she needs right now. You need to respect her decisions... but I would make that last effort and tell her that you support her all the way and that you'd love to stay with her - even if it means not seeing her as much. Tell her you're willing to give her as much space as she needs.
Good luck, sweetness. You sound like a great guy.

 Have you told her you're fine with not seeing her as much as before? If you haven't then do it. She's not a mindreader after all. The problem is though if she's not willing to risk it after that then you have to support her decision. Unfortunately the person who wants out of the relationship always gets their own way in the end and if you want to stay friends with her all you can do is accept that.
