Just a note for balance. Girls arent the fairer sex. We don't 'understand' them as they are really just like us. Some are good, some are bad and in general girls are more subtle (i.e. dont boast).

When I first went to uni I was with a lass from back home. We lasted 2 years. Break up was all my doing. I then got together with another girl from uni and promptly ****ed off to do my year in industry, a good 4 hour train ride away. We've been together 6 years now. Of those 6 years we have spent 4 living in different cities and seeing each other on weekends, me doing a phd and her doing a clinical doctorate - so still at uni.

Finally, in about three weeks we'll be living together for the first time. Hope we get along alright living together...

My advice, give her space when she wants it. If she doesn't want to see you on a weekend (or whatever your arrangements are) it's not because she's booked in with the first XV, it's probably because she just wants time with her new uni mates. This WILL happen during the first few months of her being at uni as she gets to know people.

In all seriousness, get her something practical and useful that she'll use everyday and that'll remind her of you and how thoughtful you were to buy it. Be it notebooks, a camera or a honking great dildo...just make sure she knows who it's from.

Apologies for lack of crassness.

MF if you dont ask her she wont have to lie to you

I did ask, constantly, in my younger and less confident days. But fortunately for us both, I grew out of that silly phase, otherwise I am sure we would no longer be together.

Having read (and enjoyed) most of this thread, I think you'd better just go with her.

For the record, I met my girlfriend when I was 24, and she was 18. She went off to Uni a few months after we met, and then to make life even more difficult, I started working abroad.

That was 6 years ago, we've been married for 2 ๐Ÿ™‚

Cheers, Rich

I need to stop being negative ๐Ÿ™‚

My GF did a Fashion (noddy) degree. Kinda in two camps. You might be alright as all the girls on her course were dizzy/into bloody shopping and hanging out with men who had coloured/styled hair.

EVERYONE knows that if you wanna get something other than the run of the mill student bird action you hit the music/arts/fashion dept.

Lets put the op's mind at rest with your stories of how you or people you know made it through unscathed...

We met at uni, but 2 years later GF changed unis and so we spent the next 3 years with me living in Edinburgh and him in Lancaster. Been together 16 years and married for 8.

Saying that, I remember all the fashion student girls as being distinctive looking- i.e **** ugly and trying to be a model or were actually ok and stood out abit.

It is a goodtime to find out now though either way. If its meant to be you will together forever ๐Ÿ™‚
