I am really confused right now, and I don’t even know what to do. I am 21 years old, and I have a boyfriend. He’s a law student, in his 500 level. My boyfriend is not really doing well, he’s not stable financially, and we have been dating for more than 3 years now. I have hope that one-day things will get better, but things aren’t getting any better. So today, he called me and told me he has 12 carryovers. He had 2 carryovers when he was in 200 level, he did the exams again but still failed. He had 2 carryovers again when he was in 300 level, which he has yet to retake. And now he told me that he has 8 carryovers in 400 level, which makes 12 carryovers altogether. He called me this afternoon, and he was crying. He told me his parents mustn’t hear about it. I am really broken at the moment because this guy is someone I love so much, and he is someone I would love to spend the rest of my life with.
My boyfriend loves me so much, and he is a very cool guy. He also gives me from the little he has, though, but I am really confused. Should I stay in the relationship or leave? Things aren’t getting better at all, his CGPA is now 1.60, he said they already put a warning on his portal which means they might give him the advice to withdraw if he fails again. My boyfriend is suicidal, he has tried committing suicide like twice. I am really confused. Do I still stay in the relationship or leave because I’m beginning to get tired? I am always the only one consoling him but I think I am getting tired of everything happening. He doesn’t really have friends anymore too because most of his friends have left him already.
