She definitely seems to think you're immature/irresponsible. My take is that that fact can't be changed, and the relationship isn't salvageable. But give it a try, if it's important to you.

You both function differently. She's always on her toes while you're the laid back dude. You think she is overbearing while she finds you a laze bum. You both need tolerance to keep the love going, or eventually your differences will take a toll on the relationship.

From what you write is sounds like she has seen you do things that have totally changed her perspective on you.

You are expecting her to change FOR YOU and she is expecting you to change FOR HER.

...that's not going to happen or is the makings of the future of a healthy and happy relationship.

You guys sound like roommates more than actual mates.
You guys should be sitting down together and evaluate what you both want in life and where you are headed. It's time to get serious about the relationship and act like adults.

Have you EVER discussed what you both want and need from a relationship or the reasons you guys have decided to be a couple?

Where is this headed?

That's what you guys need to discuss

maybe the fact that you're drinking mid day and underage. Also the fact that you're incredibly laid back and aren't trying to find your strengths for your future so you can get through college could be factors...

you guys do realize I am in college? 2 years of CC, 2 years of university + grad school. Being laid back doesn't mean I'm dumb.

Going back to what I posted in post #30, I think you're simply outgrowing each other. We aren't meant to find a life partner at 12. You shouldn't sound like "an old married couple" when you're just exiting your teens.

This doesn't match your other posts. And you managed to get all this accomplished by the age of 19 or 20, whatever your age happens to be today?

The 2 years of uni + grad school are his future plans.

OP, you do realize that for grad school, you have to be a lot more disciplined? You can't go putting off assignments to the last minute, and it's a lot more demanding. OK, you knew that. Best of luck.
