I’m (18F) personally not sad that my S/O (17M) wants to focus more on his studies. In fact, I’m happy for him and want to encourage him. Plus, I will focus on my studies, friends, loved ones, hobbies, etc.

But we can’t talk much because he needs to do his schoolwork for his last year of high school. How can we make a relationship work without much talking? I asked him what we could do and he had no idea.

    Well you are not responsible for making the relationship work; you both have to do that together and if he is not doing his half; accept that he is expressing that he does not value the relationship like you do.

    Don’t carry a relationship with someone who is not actively making the relationship work.
