I like your advice, so hopefully you can help me. My boyfriend is going to a different school next year...meaning he'll be at public, I'll be stuck at this stupid private school. I really don't like it. (i don't like school in general, but who does?) I have to decide whether I'm going to re-enroll by July. Should I switch schools? At this new school, I would be kind of scared because it's bigger and I don't know very many people. But I would switch just to see him every day. (we don't hardly see each other now) Do you think I should switch schools or is it better if we arent together all the time?

Lets see... I would say you shouldn't base your decision on which school you go to on seeing your boyfriend every day... but then again, I did the same thing. I had the chance to go to a great college, but my boyfriend didn't get accepted. The great college was bigger and scared me, so I went to the smaller one with him. We saw each other ever day, lived in the same dorm and it was great. For a while at least. Seeing each other every day, practically living with each other kind of brings out the really annoying qualities that you think are cute in the beggining... they turn out to be super annoying.
so, the great college, which would have been much better for my career, had more of my friends from high school, and happened to be bigger and scaryer... I chose the small crappy school for my boyfriend.
Well, the boyfriends gone and I'm left with a few thousand dollars in loans from a school that didn't help me with my future. When I look back, I think we would have made it if we weren't always together right out of high school. We should have waited a while.
This is a really long answer, but it's a hard question. How long have you been with him? Do you love him? Does he feel the same about you? You need to find out these things. As much as school sucks, you also need to think about which school is better for you in the long run, unless they're both about the same. Just don't sacrafice anything to drastic for him.
And if you do decide to stay at the private school, don't give up on him. When me and my ex were together, if we spent a week apart, like, if I went back home and he didn't, then after seeing each other again it was like the first month of our relationship. We would be all over each other and actually like each other. :)
