So for reference I'm f20 and my partner is f22 she just graduated college last sem and I still have a year and a half to two years. We've been having this problem since about the beginning of our relationship where she'll put other shit on the time we're supposed to spend with each other. She works part time and still lives with her parents (not a jab or a problem). I've told her many many times i hate when plans change especially abruptly and as of rn we have a schedule where she'll come over to my place latter part of the day one day during the week and either thursday to friday or friday to sat we'll have a sleepover. i have a hefty school load because im an architecture major in my 3rd yr (iykyk) but no matter what i make sure to make this time every week because of how much i really enjoy spending time with her even if i have to rearrange my schedule. But she does not seem to do the same on days and times she knows we're supposed to be hanging out she'll just put something on it. Like picking up a random shift, or dipping out with her friends for the whole weekend to CT, one time her friend just asked her to sit with her for a tattoo appointment smack dab in the middle of time we were supposed to be tg, and almost every week it's something different. Since I was a child i've always hated the mixing and changing of plans and even worse to me is the fact that she doesnt seem to care that she's shaving off an extra 6 hrs or sometimes more or that i have work and her switching the schedule all the time. I will say sometimes she has fairly reasonable excuses as to why but atp even if she has a good reason it pisses me off so bad because she keeps promising change but i dont see shit changing and atp it feels like empty promises. The main thing we're kinda fighting about right now is that 2 weeks ago weekend we had plans but she dipped on them to go to Ct but then she tells me she wants to go again this week once again while we have plans and the week before this she had a birthday party for her grandfather during our planned time so we had to switch up again and cancel all our plans for sat. i feel like im reasonable pissed atp because she just went and last time i didnt stop her or get mad because i feel like if it's a reasonable amt of time that she hasnt gone (it was just a few weeks since she had last gone) so im not being crazy i feel like. so i decide im going home for this weekend if she's going and im just gonna stay a bit longer because my spring break is next week and come back to hangout with her the latter part of the week. then she tells me her friends moved it around and now she's going from wednesday to sunday next week (my last break till i leave for summer) so basically that means i cant see her the whole break and this week we're barely gonna see each other bc she's coming wednesday to thurs bc we were both supposed to be leaving on the weekend she says she really wants to go this time because 2 other friends who havent been going as frequently are going this time. but on wednesday i dont get home till 5 and thursday i dont get home till well after 6 and she has to leave early around 10 because of her mother and then we're not gonna see each other the only real free time i have until the end of the semester and then i need to get a job and im gonna be a state away and she has two jobs during the summer one is 4-5 days of the week i think and the other she said she'll be doing on the weekend so i dont even see how that's gonna work really. i told her if she keeps making me feel like im not a priority to her or our time is not a priority to her we're probably going to break up. AITAH? because i really cant tell if im in the wrong for being pissed at her. and i told her i'm not going to be prioritizing our time anymore either if she's gonna do this. Am i being too emotional or dependent or is this reasonable?
