That's for the best. You need to be able to talk in a relationship, after all, you're in for good and bad with each other.

Honestly a woman that is willing to sacrifice something for you is hard to find these days. Even when you tell them not to. 

From what you said she has been so supporting to you through your troubles. She sounds like a keeper TBH.

Any time travel advice is good advice. You won't get that from the lame stream media.

Though I get the allure of breaking up via text, honestly I would do it more for myself than for her (face to face that is). Even with past girlfriends, that I really did not care for them, I still went out and broke up face to face, because otherwise you do look like a coward in front of her and yourself in a little bit, even if at the moment it seems easier. Its not that hard. You can be fairly direct and quick with it. Hell most of my breakups were like that and I never felt uncomfortable later on, when we met again.

So she very likely saved your life, obviously because she has strong feelings for you, and your plan is to end it with a single text? Jesus man, grow a pair and at least have the decency to tell her that in person. And yes, it's going to be heartbreaking for her and even for you, but at the end of a day, it is your decision, therefore your responsibility.

Sounds like she deserves better than you.

Man up and don't be such a little bitch.

Always break u face to face if possible. Anything else just makes the other person feel pathetic. I've been there I know.

If she's making you do things you don't want to do, maybe she doesn't understand how much you truly don't want to do those things. Perhaps you are doing them with her because you felt as though the relationship depended on it. I sort of remember being in a similar relationship. But if it's come down to her choice of University, that's pretty deep, as school already started, right?

No, be presidential: break up with her on Twitter and let the whole world participate.

I was happy to be left through a SMS by the craziest of my ex-gf, because the relationship had deteriorated and she had a very bossy and angry character, but I would never leave through a text message a girl that always was good and nice to me, that would be really horrible. Deal with how bad you'll feel, but watch her in her face, be honest and brave, she'll suffer anyway, but maybe a little less and at least you won't offend her. Maybe, if she too already understood your story is over, it will be much easier than you expected, and you'll remain good friends.
