My girlfriend and i have been together for three years we love eachother she gave up a lot to be with me as well as i did to be with her. Did we make a mistake or should we be happy about the choices we made because we found each other and love and companionship is bettter than anything else in the world. I love her and i need her in my life. what im really asking is giving up everything for the person you love the right thing to do.

What if you know it is love but your scared to believe it because of probelms that have recently gone on such as losing ur family to a divorce.

If you're both okay with it, then there's nothing wrong with giving up whatever it is. But never do so just because the other person expects it from you. Be sure to remain your own person, give each other space, then you will be happy.

If you're both totally happy then I guess it's gotta be ok. But if you're seeing some really bad results in other areas of your life then you can only answer is it worth it. Some sacrifices are insignifigant compared to a pure and loving relationship. If you gave up a lot of money or the college of your dreams, not so bad. But if you've given up all the other ppl in your life who mean a lot to you... could be trouble. You need other family and friends in your life and you can't sustain each other forever. But if it was just collge or a move or soemthing... you could lok back 30-50-60 yrs from now and know it was all worth it.

If you truly love your gf, then you must be more than willing to give up everything for her. The point now is, how sure are you that she's the one for you. At this stage, better for you to know each other well, and work on things that would make your relationship stronger before you commit to live as partners for life. Know her in her best and worst moments then ask yourself if you are willing to be with this girl for the rest of your life.
Be willing to risk for the sake of your love.

If ya'll arent happy with what you gave up, then no its not worth it! You must both be happy! I was in the Navy and I didnt stay because I was away from my boyfriend, I moved to another state with him and I was very happy! I gave all my hard work up to be with him, and I am still happy, SO It is worth it for me. But dont make yourself give it all up, for something that doesnt make you completly happy. You will always have it on your shoulders.

IT depends on what your gonna give up for her...
like in my case last year my ex and i were together and i thought i loved him so much and he turned out to be a pot head and a drug dealer i found this out on the side b/c he didnt seem like he was so he started asking me well can you hold this stuff for me? and stuff and being only 16 and stupid i said yes ... and now im on probation and i had to go to these classes but imbetter now and in a new realtionship and trying to get over that realtationship that was wit him! and ask your self is the thing im giving up worth giveing up for this person?

relationship is a partnership, u shouldn't give up on the stuff u love to do u should try to share it, if u can't do it together then both of u can do own stuff separately, but if U've held love for 3 years u shouldn't ask for advice, love is wonder full thing that had ever happened to me ones....

good for both of you....but your family's problem is not your...as long as you guys are happy of the choices you made that all it matter.....may be you guys will learn not to repeat your family's mistake!but giving up every thing i don't no...... because i will not give up every thing ...i don't want to resent that person in a long run.....but if you are happy with the choice why not love is beautiful..............that is true love.

Making certain sacrifices is part of loving. But you still nedd to be your own person, otherwise you lose sense of self and reality is warped to you.

Until it makes you happy why not???
Personally, I don't over do it for anybody. (husbnd, friends etc..)
My personal experience is that at the end is is very difficult to find someone that will always be loyal to you.

Ummmm no ....it's take about 7 years to truely get to know someone.....so no it's not worth losing everything. but if you had nothing really to lose in the beginning..."What the heck ya got to lose?" ..nothing....so go for it.
