Niki, perhaps you are trying too hard. Perhaps you could give yourselves and each other some space to think. Is: don't see Steve or the other chap, get on with your studies and let your head clear.
There are so many people involved in your life and what you should and should not do with it. Do you think that it might help to take a break from all of the stresses and strains and concentrate on your studies for a while.
Sleep on the other stuff and see what happens.
Easy to say, I know, but it might be worth it.
What do you think?
