sorry its so long :-/ any advice would be well appreciated.... I'll rate :)
I read your post and didn't really find anything peculiar about it until you got to the "im afraid hes going to get over me and move on..." etc. Look you can still be friends and e-mail. But the truth about life which you are learning right now is that people are replaceable. It's just how it is. You'll go to college and you're high school friends who seem closer then family will be more distant and eventually you'll stop talking to them. When you leave college you're inseperable college friends will disappear as you get further away from college. If you move from one town to another or change jobs again it'll happen. If you get married then your whole life changes and you won't have as much time to spend with friends so only the closest remain. It's just a simple fact of life. The people whom you associate with right now you may not even talk to 10 years from now. It's just how life is. So he's going away, ah such is life. The getting over you, and all that stuff sounds a little troubling. It's not about owning another person or wanting them to feel a certain way. We have no control over others. The only person you control is you. Furthermore if you're a healthy individual you can be without anyone for a year and it's no problem. Just be yourself. Get over him now. Just be with you, it's all you need. When the right time comes whether it's him or somebody else you'll have a boyfriend in your life. Hope I was helpful. That's my advice.
