likestolaugh Posted March 8, 2010 Posted March 8, 2010 so... My gf is having a hard time with school (last year of uni). She is completely unmotivated, and it's become a big problem. She often doesn't get stuff done on time, and when she does it's at the last minute, and usually it shows. She is going have a lot of stuff coming up at the end of the year, and I really don't want to her to fail, but she will if she keeps this up. It's pissing me off to see her like this, and frankly it's a bit of a turnoff as well. what can I say/do to get her to work harder?
MizzBella Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 There isn't much you can do other than offer her help...and I have learned that the hard way. I now know that when I choose to be with someone, I have to accept them for who they are not what I expect them to be. If her motivation to succeed in life doesn't match yours and it bothers you, then maybe you should let her know - and if she doesn't see it as a problem - then maybe you two are not a good match.
JessaL Posted March 10, 2010 Posted March 10, 2010 She could be self-sabotaging because she's not ready to graduate and be an adult/not ready for change. You can't change her. You should suggest she talk to a school counselor to ensure she graduates on time.
