Hi Confused,
Do you think that it is possible that you need to study something different in school? You said that your grades were bad and that you have to re do the whole year. Maybe this isn't your calling. Is there something else that interests you?
Honey, you are 23 years old. Maybe you should get a job and find a place of your own. You would have a life then without someone holding material things over your head all of the time. It sounds like it is time for you to cut the pursestrings and get out on your own. Until you do, I don't think it is possible for you to be happy. Give the guy his space, if he doesn't want to see you anymore, so be it. There are a lot of other nice guys out there for you to meet. It might have something to do with you hooking up with the internet guy.
Something to think about.
I am sorry that you are so unhappy.
hugs,
Karen
I just reread your post and notice you only had trouble with one class, I can see where you would want to make it right, so disregard what I said about
changing majors. I wish you the best and hope that soon you will be able to get out on your own. You deserve to have the freedom that your peers have, but this is your choice. I hope that you feel better soon.
