  • Things may change, change happens and is nothing to be frightened of. Its what he wants, try to be happy for him, I'm sure he would be happy for you if things were the other way around. Good Luck to you both :-)
  • hey don't worry about it. them getting signed really isn't anything to worry about. in fact, since it's your boyfriend's band, there should be a huge celebration. be happy, don't be worrisome! you don't want your worrying to keep you from being happy now would you?
  • Things will change, things in life always change. He's getting a chance to pursue his dream. Support him, be happy for him, be happy with him. If you aren't supportive and he chooses to let this go, he'll eventually end up resenting you. That's a bigger thing to be afraid of.
  • I understand exactly where you are coming from. You know you should be so happy for him, but you are afraid of what it means to your relationship - because it does change everything. My boyfriends band got signed to a big lable.....now they are going to tour for 5 months next year. Now he has to quit his stable, well paying job and sell off most of his possessions. Now we wont be able to move in together as we had planned or travel together. I feel selfish for thinking about those things. Be happy for him, but be aware that he has to take the chance if he gets it. The change to follow your dreams doesn't come along very often - no matter what that means to your relationship.
  • I think your situation is completely understandable -- this kind of change can certainly make you anxious. Some people will tell you to be happy for him, and don't worry... but it's unlikely that you'll be able to do that. You ARE worried, yes? And there's no magic wand you can wave to make the worry go away. Just stay in touch with your thoughts and feelings on the matter, and do your best to be supportive of him. It's OK to tell him that you're worried, and why. In the end, either your fears will be realized or they won't. If it goes badly, try to learn what you can from the experience and let go, move on. If it goes well, do the same. That's all any of us can do with the curve balls life throws our way.
