pfft.. i did it.. not good.. its bad for u in fact.. i see lots of ppl do it..
the break up will cause a loss of support u had prior.. understand tat they (person studying) needs time for themselves.. its a tough comprimise
but i think staying in a stable relationship is much better..
stress will be ure key concern..
depression is the other..
lost of close friends..
HSC is a big thing for most 16-18 yo understand u want to break up cos u 'think' it will allow more time to study/concentrate.. but this is a lie cos ull find something else to.. esp if ure partner is doing the HSC too
u need support.. and tellin them u are scared is the first steps so that they kno.. if ure partners in uni..tell them u feel they belittle u if they say "pftt - HSC thats easy" and let them understand .. they will remember.. rippin their hairs out.. esp high achievers..
being heartbroken or guilty helps noone.. its the grief cycle
if problems persist..
