But Chad, it’s not wise to travel around the US, we’re living unprecedented times right now.

You can love someone and still need space from them. Until the world gets back to normal, live in your separate places. If you’re both committed to the relationship, you can move in together at a later date.

After reading all this can I tell you how happy I am that I live in a coastal but rural area. My wife has a 1/2 acre to putter around in while I work or hangs out on the porch with the dog.

My girlfriend lives in a studio apartment. She wanted me to move in with her during this mess and I told her that it doesn’t make sense considering I have to work from home. I would absolutely want to kill her if I was stuck in a studio with her and her three cats for weeks. I know she’d wanna kill me too. Just try to wait this out. Hopefully she’ll calm down a bit and you guys can get a place with some more space down the line.

Haha yup, that talks is coming...
I don’t think she will be able to do that nor will I be able to not see her until this is over, and so far it’s very far from over.

she would just stay at my place. But now we have been getting into fights, mostly because we’re in a small space and we don’t leave the house. There is no corner here where you can hide from each other. I asked politely today if she could go home for a few days so I can focus on my mental health. It’s hard for me to live on her schedule and feel like I’m in an office all day long when she is on conference calls. She didn’t take it very well and said that she loves me and wants to be with me no matter the circumstances. So to her it was like I was kicking her out, now she won’t even return my calls or text me back. I love her more than anything in the world. But, is it okay to love someone so much and need space because we are together too much? I would stay in her apartment but it’s more difficult for me because she has roommates and I have 2 cats, we cannot find an apartment now because she is scared to be on the lease for both of us, especially if she loses her job, which she is constantly worrying about. Because of corona we don’t want to do back and forth either (though she is an 8 min uber away)

Any advice?

How about finding an alternative? I’ve moved into my boyfriends apartment but commute to my “office” (my apartment) every day just as I would if I was working. It gives us space while also allowing us to be quarantine buddies. Granted I have no roommates, but I still think if she only is going to her apartment and yours it shouldn’t be that big a deal.

Where is the rest...

OP this is just temporary. Take a break from the relationship. Regroup once things go back to normal.

UPDATE: she broke up with me... over text. I have never been so hurt before, I loved her so much. And now being all alone and with no job, no family, no friends, I don’t know if I can make it

I an very sorry to hear this. SVP gave very good advice that you should consider. Go and win her back. Good luck!

And we hope to receive another update that says you are happily back together again. 😍

Heyy does anyone have any tips for an entry level media planner? I graduated last year and landed a FT offer at an agency. I’ve been working from home for almost a month now and honestly it has its pros and cons. Not only is it harder getting to know your team, but there haven’t been much guidance from my manager and the lingo takes some time to get use to. I guess I just want to learn as much as possible and give off good impressions. Since everything is wfh I’ve been feeling anxious. Thanks!

It's getting embarassing and not sure what to do other than medication which I've heard can cause hair loss. I've tried ACV rinses and tea tree oil, but no real results.
