    Hi April,

    First I’m 21 and my girlfriend is 22 and we have being living together for a few months now although she’s moving away for university while I’m staying here till next April to finish my degree. We are close to be together for 1 year, our relationship has always been great we have fun together but lately we have been fighting a lot and building anger towards each other. We would be perfect for a few days or maybe weeks than have a fight and start over again with the perfect days. Till it got to a point where she’s staying at her mom’s for a while and needs time. Giving some details, she has being finding me cranky a lot even thought I’m not and saying I love her less than I used to it, she seems to get mad at me easily for every little thing and on the other hand she’s impatience with me, her smoking habit and her drinks habit ( to a point where I have to carry her literary because she’s too intoxicated to walk ) all those things frustrated me. I tried to talk about it but she always don’t take me seriously or just say she wont do anything about it. I’m planing a romantic surprise (more like an excuse) I got flower, candles and wrote a love letter but she refuses to come home if I don’t tell her why I want her to come and that I’m making her nervous and stressing her out.
    I love her to death but lately is being hard to be around her is there any way to fix this or the relationship is doomed ?

    If she’s getting so drunk she can’t walk, you’re dealing with someone who’s possibly got an alcohol problem. It doesn’t mean she’s an alcoholic, but the frequency with which she gets so inebriated you’re literally carrying her, is not a good sign. My advice is to stop carrying her and let her stay where she’s drunk, so she can wake up and realize her own problem without you enabling this situation.

    It also sounds like the upcoming split the two of you are going to have, is creating stress that isn’t being talked about. Some people have trouble breaking up, so they create drama in order to facilitate a break up. Your girlfriend may realize she’s leaving town to go to college, while you’re staying in town to finish your degree here, and she’s very uncomfortable with that split, but doesn’t know how to handle it, so she’s creating a break up.

    There’s not a lot for you to do when someone else is acting out — except to maintain your own stability, and eventually, if her instability doesn’t stop, you have to move on because the girlfriend you once have is not the girlfriend you have now.

    All that means is that you can’t make her want to be with you; be sober; be someone who reacts normally. You have to realize that this is who she is, and after a while, decide if this is who you want to be with.
