It is not easy to decide what to do if girlfriend has no direction in life. You will have to try and find out what is the cause of her problem. When your girlfriend has no direction in life, if you can’t get her to change you will have to decide if you want to keep dating her or break up.

  1. Talk with your girlfriend and ask her why she has no direction in life. She might be unhappy with you for some reason and that is why she is acting depressed and is so directionless. If you are the reason she has no direction in life, you need to decide whether to make some changes or to just break up with her. If there are other reasons she has no direction in life, try to help her solve the problems so you can start to have a healthy relationship together.
  2. See if your girlfriend will set some goals for her career and for her personal fitness. Setting these goals might help to give your girlfriend some direction. Exercising may help her improve her attitude and self-esteem. Encourage your girlfriend to stick with these goals so she can try and achieve whatever she wants to in life.
  3. If your girlfriend does not change you can give her an ultimatum. Sit down and tell her that you are not happy she has no direction in life, and unless she changes you are going to break up with her. Don’t tell her this unless you actually mean it. This may be what she needs to hear to get herself back on the right track.
  4. You will have to be ready to live up to your statement. If your girlfriend does not make any changes just break up with her and move on. That may actually help her to find some direction in life, and it will help you have peace of mind since you no longer have to deal with her problems. Down the road if she changes her ways and you are both still single you can give her a second chance.
