[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son who is a college sophomore said every single one of his HS friends who left a significant other back home in HS broke up before or by Thanksgiving. My daughter is a senior in high school this year and several of her friends who were dating kids who were headed off to college broke up over the summer. My guess is he should just rip the bandaid off and tell her he needs space to navigate this next phase of his life and move on. [/quote]

Well, he definitely should, but he’s not ready to do that at all.

I assume that he won’t do that until he really feels intrinsic motivation due to freshman FOMO when he is sitting around in his dorm worrying about making her upset vs going to live the life he wants to live.

It would be one thing if I felt like his girlfriend and relationship was “normal” or something, but she is a controlling and has issues and no I’m not just saying that. His dad and stepmom actually had an intervention with him earlier this spring about her.  [/quote]
