Dear Jellybean,
i have been going out with this guy for about three weeks now. he is very sweet and i really love talking to him. he is really nice to me but he is in football. he has football games friday night then saturday they have practice and then every sunday it seems like one of us has something to do. i know he tries everything he can to find time to hang out and he cant help it but i really want to hang out soon. he has told me that if we can just wait about another month or so then football will be over and we can hang out a lot more. he asked if i wanted to wait that long and see what happens or take a break until then and i was afraid that if i said i wanted to take a break then we wouldnt ever get back together and i really like him so i didnt want that to happen. i asked him which one he would rather do and he said that he prefers not to break up. should i be doing anything differently?
Dear Writer,
Your boyfriend clearly cares about you, and he also enjoys football. You say that he's doing his best to find time for you, and that's really all that he can do. You can either take the pressure off him, and be patient until football season is over, or you can decide that you want a boyfriend now (more than you want him later), and break up to find someone else. If you really care for him, a month is nothing... so it's really up to you.
