...See more My girlfriend and I have been together for over a year, and it’s been one of the best periods of my life. We’re both med students, so free time is really limited. Lately, though, we’ve been arguing more, especially about how we spend the little time we have. This year I’m behind on exams and won’t be in class with her. We just found out Fridays are free, so no early wake-ups. As soon as she heard this, she said she wants to go clubbing every Thursday, since she loves it. I really don’t enjoy clubbing, and I was hoping we could use Thursday nights for some proper quality time—not just quick study breaks like during the week (this year we met on evenings around 2 times a week from 9 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. or we studied together during the day if this wasn't possible but I don't like it at all) She says we’ll still have Friday and Saturday nights, but she often goes home on weekends, so that’s not always true. She agreed not to go clubbing on the Thursdays when she’s away, but that still leaves most weeks. To be clear: I don’t have a problem with her going clubbing—she did that last year too—but doing it this often, at the expense of our time together, does bother me. I told her I don’t mind her spending time with friends, but I don’t think it’s fair to give up our one proper evening for that, especially when we barely see each other Monday to Wednesday. Maybe I’m being too clingy? I just feel like we don’t value our time together the same way.
