Communicate with your significant other. He or she does not know how you are feeling. You need to let your concerns known. Although it is best to share your feelings, do not overwhelm your partner with feelings. Your significant other may feel inundated with too much information.
Manage your time to include your relationship, studies, fun and friends. College is said to be the best time of your life. Why spend it all with your boyfriend or girlfriend? Also, you are in college to learn. Do not neglect your classes for your significant other.
Schedule mutually beneficial times to see each other. Do not cut classes to see your partner. This will hurt you in the long run.
Do not be too overbearing by keeping things light. If your significant other cancels on you because of school work or some other obligation, do not be upset or hurt. Life happens. Instead of pointless recriminations, spend time with your friends.
Introduce your partner to your friends, but make sure to keep it casual. Go to a movie or a party together.
Make your expectations clear. If you want a spring fling, let your significant other know. If you are not ready for a long-term relationship, express that sentiment. When expectations do not correlate, various problems arise.
