Im confused/ not sure about her

hey, im 18rn. will be 19 in 7 days . she will be 18 next month . So we met 2 years back in school . She was a transfer kid , and the day I saw her . I fell in complete love with her . We started talking and later she proposed me to start a relationship .

She was not good in her studies and her parents are toxic asf. But we made a decision that ill teach her for 2 years and we will go to the same college. She promised to go to the same college as mine if she clears the entrance eligibility over there .

finally, the result day came, she scored too good around 70 . and I scored around 75 ( I was a 90 plus kid ) but still I was happy that we would be going to the same college as we both cleared the cutoff of the targeted college.

but here comes the twisted part, now her parents aren't allowing her to go to the same college as mine. And it is true that she cannot do anything about it herself.

Now shes offering me to be in a long-distance relationship. She cried so much in front of me and was very sad about it. But now I'm unsure wether I should give her a chance or not since my promise has been broken. I worked so hard for it, that I even compromised my marks to be with her.

IDK what to do now, please guide me

You're young. You need to put yourself first. I'm in my 30s and I don't even really count my teenage relationships as serious, even though I felt that way at the time. I'm sure you don't want to look back at this situation, when she's likely to be a distant memory to you, and regret the things you didn't get to do.

Try and find someone locally that you are compatible with. Very few people at 25 are with their first partner.

Young people can feel attraction keenly -
I think I was more upset over a crush at 17 than a later divorce-
Never try and do badly academically to fit in with someone else.

Being young is painful- especially “
First attractions “

If her parents aren’t keen, it’s probably not good idea.

Also , once you start going to different Colleges/ Universities you will drift apart naturally.
Concentrate on your studies, @confusedboy This should stand you in far better stead .

"But now I'm unsure wether I should give her a chance or not since my promise has been broken."

I don't understand what you mean by this.

Saying should you give her a chance or not sounds weird, as if you think she's wilfully broken some promise to you or something when it doesn't sound like that's the case at all.

It's not her fault her parents won't let her go to the same place as you. Plus, you don't know the rationale behind their decision (finances, accessibility logistics, etc.)

Maybe you could go to the same place she's going to instead if you have more flexibility.

Or, give the long distance thing a try.
