If you really like somone, shouldn't you make time for him/her despite a busy lifestyle?

"being busy", more often than not, is just one of the lame excuses of the norm. now that technology is developing with a blink of an eye, what is one text message, right?... and if that someone really cares, he/she will move any mountain just to get it touch with you... i mean, wouldn't you?

I think it's a personal question that has to be addressed individually. It depends on what is important to you. If you have an absolute need to know what the other person is like every day, all the time, then perhaps you should. Or if you believe in love and what a commitment to marriage means, then take the faith that you love this person no matter what their personal habits. You can get to know a person's character without living with them, but again, it's up to you and them. As for strengthening a relationship, more studies show that it doesn't, but everybody's different. You also have to think about your potential kids and what kind of an example would you want to set for them? Years down the road what are you going to want to be able to say to them about moving in with their partners? That usually will reflect what is in your own heart and you should listen to that.

All that info and non of it really maters. The question is whether or not you love her. If you do stay if not don't. Life is to short to spend it putting it off.

It really depends on if you guys do not depend on each other for financial need.  If you can leave the relationship and can rely on yourself to provide for yourself, then it is not rushing things.  But every decision you make is based on the long run.  If you are taking things step by step and you feel you aren't rushing things that is fine.  But normally, long successful relationships run slower than the pace you're at right now.  But what is normal nowadays?

If he'll be living close by, I'd suggest setting up a time once a week or something for you guys to spend time together, and don't let ANYTHING get in the way of it. Phone calls work too, but nothing beats actual physically being together.

Lots of people make that commitment, but not many manage to keep it.\n\nI would say that if you only "really like him or maybe even more" then now is not the time to be thinking about making such a commitment anyway.\n\nWhen you find somebody that you simply can't be without and love more than you love your own life, then and only then should you consider such promises.\n\nPlease, don't give yourself away so cheaply.

It sounds like your relationship is really not much of a relationship since you get to spend very little time together.  Unfortunately he is working towards a profession where this schedule problem will probably be an issue for a long time to come.  If you can't deal with it then it is time to get out and move on.

the right person will come along when the time is right for the both of you, don't rush it, it'll happen, when it does, you will know. Don't settle for less or you will still meet him and not be able to be together because of your prior choices

If you want it bad enough, you will find the time. It would also help if you described what your typical day is like now. You just say you are "busy", but what are you busy doing?

True, true that is why we all need to take our time, and let their actions, be the fruit,  that we can judge their relationship potential on....take you time, no matter what and actions will tell before long

Why not continue to stay in the "friends" mode for a while?  Let it run its natural course, your relationship, that is. ;.D  Continue to grow in your own life, and enjoy the communications between the two of you.  Don't try to force things to happen, and if it is meant to be, you will know when the time is right.  Time allows you to really get to know someone, and their quirks!

Enjoy the time you have with that person. Think of today not of tomorrow.

It means that you are too needy, and you probably want to her to spend all her free time with you. Let her have time for herself

Yes, find someone that wants to share and create memories with you.  If you are important then he will create time. Now you are just entertainment

no. even if you think that the person with you now is the one you really love, you need to save some for yourself :)

Nothing serious, unless she was into barely seeing you. Im a really busy person too and I think that a full time boyfriend just wouldn't work for me. \n\nKeep in mind that you need a day of rest too, sometimes its nice to just relax and do nothing for a change one your one day of freedom from your hectic schedual.
