For the last year and a half, this 27-year-old man and his Girlfriend, 23, have been in a long-distance relationship.

They’ve visited each other on a quarterly basis, and while they’ve discussed his girlfriend moving so that she could be closer to him, she has waited to move.

“She always wants to talk on the phone until 1 a.m. She keeps trying to get me to spend way more time with her. She has no friends. I’m the only one in her life aside from her mom,” he said.

Whenever he tells her that he can’t talk to her on the phone that late, she accepts what he says at the time, but later, she seems annoyed and sends strange texts to him that make it clear she’s mad at him.

“Earlier this week, I got a text saying she felt I wasn’t even attracted to her and didn’t want her anymore because I go to bed early,” he explained.

After she sent him that message, he was understandably mad, and they had a huge argument about it. The fight was so bad that he was close to ending their relationship. During their conversation, his girlfriend was sobbing hysterically, assuring him that she’d be different from now on, so he held off on breaking up with her.

Unfortunately, their relationship issues have made it difficult for him to concentrate while at work.

A few days ago, he was reprimanded by a manager.

“I got chewed out for not being dedicated enough and being visibly demoralized to the point where I was sent home early the night after our fight,” he shared.

Because he doesn’t have a college degree, his current job is incredibly important to him, and it’s his desired career. His salary is in the low six-figure range, and he lives in a state where the cost of living is quite low, so he’s financially comfortable. Prior to the job he has now, he made about $23 an hour.

Once he got in trouble at work, he knew that he couldn’t continue dedicating so much time to his girlfriend. At this point, he feels like he has to choose between his job and his girlfriend, and he knows that, without a doubt, he wants to choose his career.

His plan is to tell his girlfriend that he will have to spend less of his time talking to her because it’s negatively affecting his work. He’s anticipating an intense argument to happen when he tells her this.

Now, he’s wondering if it’s bad that he’s feeling this way since his girlfriend relies on him so much for emotional support.

Do you think he’s wrong for choosing his job over his girlfriend?
