    Hi Sam,

    There’s no ideal time to be in a relationship. My daughter has had a boyfriend for over a year and will be applying to grad school next year. Will she be with the BF? Who knows? Where will she end up? Who knows? Where will the BF get a job as he’s not going to grad school? It’s a mystery! Does this mean they should break up now? That would be silly.

    I say live as fully in the present as you can.

    That said, you are still relatively free. Don’t text the guy or chase him. Keep it casual. But enjoy him when he’s around.

    Best,

    Inky

    Thank you Inky! That is good advice. I think I feel some pressure because I’m in my 30s so I want to meet someone/have a family but I also don’t want to waste my time just dating haha. But I enjoy this guy’s company so I will take it for what it is and not worry too much.

    Dear Sam:

    Good resolution, to “not worry too much”- as long as you can manage your time according to your priorities, and not be consumed by the relationship/ dating, neglecting your other plans, then continue the relationship.

    Make the relationship work FOR you, not against you. If this relationship is good for you, continue; if it is bad for you, don’t.
