Alright first off I want to thank you for opening this, because I really need some good advice or something at the least, this is my first time posting online and I am just hoping someone can help me out with my situation, so here goes. I am a sophomore at a College, and before the school year even started me and this girl,who friend requested me started talking over the phone and we were talking about every other night for the last two weeks before school was supposed to start. Anyway, we decided to get into a relationship, and this would be my first relationship and her third. Unfortunately I feel like i didn't get a good deal in this relationship, her situation is somewhat muddy in that she is an off-campus student, lives with ONE other person whom she doesn't really get along with, and doesn't know a lot of people on campus even though I told her to try and get to know more people the first few weeks of school. She doesn't have anyone else to go to in this school besides me, she doesn't, and I don't mind helping, I am a nice guy and I like helping people. Basically I am feeling suffocated because I am not spending enough time with some of my other friends, and feel as if I am missing out and she mostly ALL the time wants to be with me, yeah she's a clinger but I don't know what to do. There is another aspect I haven't mentioned and that is money, she doesn't have a car and it is 6.50 each way from her place to the school and back from school to her place by Taxi. She needs the money for transportation but I do more than my share by helping her out I have even bought her things so she doesn't always hate not being able to get stuff, meanwhile I haven't gotten ANYTHING as far as material-goods are concerned for myself, only time I have spent money on myself would be for the occassional late night McDonald's, and I am feeling cheated. I know the money issue isn't her fault, it is her parents for not being able to calculate the school's expenses and having their daughter live off campus. She transfered from another school, but that's besides the point. So, now there is also more to the story in that she is leaving this school for good in May, at the end of the spring semester. So I am really confused because we have been fighting over little things and she doesn't seem to be getting the hint, and when she does get the hint she gets all ill-tempered and bothered and it's like 'do I make myself miserable by making her happy? or go do what i want, not enjoy it because she is probably going to be angry at me.' --either way I can't seem to win. I don't know what to do, do I wait it out until she leaves the campus in May and then break up with her OR do i break it off as soon as possible and absolutely destroy the sweet, SENSITIVE girl she is and leave her all alone? -- I tried breaking up with her and she started crying SOOOOO much in my dorm room, (what the helll) I can not take a person crying much less making them cry, so please please please HELP me...I need someone to talk to but unfortunately my good friends are not here and are back home and i do not feel like bothering them with this because it seems to be my problem.

Sincerely, Ray.
