I suppose so
sage advice as ever... I guess partially at least I feel I ought to stick to the decision I've made because I don't want to mess him around a couple of months down the line by changing my mind and wanting to get back together when he'll be getting over me - hence why I want to feel like I've made the right decision now.
What's up with your love life, then?

Nothing up with it berk
I was just harking back to the marriage problems of yesteryear.

I'm turning into the Professor Yaffle with all this relatonship advice (granted, if I knew anything about relationships, I'd be in one, but hey ho).

At least you managed to snag someone
long enough to get married - clearly you're not just paper bag & bin material! At a time when all of my friends are getting engaged and buying houses and whatnot, I am considering moving back in to a house share when I've had my own flat for 5 years or more, and have managed to lose my boyfriend of 18 months. I think probably your advice is more worth listening to than my own!

And give it 36 months
One in three of your married/engaged couples will be single and thinking 'I was I was more like berk'

Just think that'll happen if the PhD application comes good? Think of all the new opportunities that will present.

Unlikely, most of them have been together since college
it's only ever me that's had trouble finding and retaining a man! PhD would be awesomeness on a stick but I have to be realistic - the chances of me actually getting one are miniscule.
