How long have you been seeing each other? Sounds like maybe you finishing up High School, if so, that's a tough time like mentioned earlier to make any long range decisions. Do you feel this has potential? Or do you feel it may just be right for right now and your b/f is trying to keep you until he has a opportunity to play the field. If he said he really wants to stop trying at college, is he hinting that he wants to break up now or is he testing the waters to see what you want. At your guys young age, emotions are high, relationship experience is usually low and communicating at any age is a art form. Talk, talk, talk. Ask every question you have in your mind, then ask why in more detail. This is an important point in your life, going to college, resolve this and get started on the right path.
