I understand why you have all these questions in your head. First of all, stop worrying! That just makes it worse. Try sitting with your boyfriend and talking to him about what you guy's are going to do when you're apart. Maybe bring up calling eachother every night (not sure about this one because it may get annoying) and/or every other day or whatever you prefer so you guy's keep in touch while at college. Of course, whenyou have time off from classes (holidays, etc) go and meet up somewhere.I'm sure you'll work a good schedule out if you guy's just sit down and talk about it.
You obviously are very in love with your boyfriend, so I doubt you'll be tempted by any other guys. Some things you can do to make sure of that? Focus on your work! Not on the guys in your class. That doesn't mean you can't be friends or hang out with any of them. Just remember; you have a very good guy who you love a lot, and who loves you too. You even said you wouldn't cheat, so don't worry about that !
I really doubt you'll lose touch. As I said before, you guy's are obviously very in love! Try talking to him, like I said before, and tell him you want to make sure that before you leave, there's a schedule worked out so you guy's can keep in touch. And, plus, I really doubt he wouldn't want to keep in touch with you, especially since you're dating. You can even visit eachother on weekends. It's only 5 hours.
I'm very sure you won't get bored. You'll have classes to focus on and everything. The reason it probably didn't work out with the last boyfriend was most likely not only because of boredom, but because you just didn't have a connection and love him as much as you do your current boyfriend. So, don't worry about getting bored.
You will miss him, no doubt about that. And, I'm sure he'll miss you too! The most important thing to do, besides keeping in touch, is maybe try bringing stuff that reminds you of him. You know..like things he gave you for maybe a birthday, holiday, etc. You can even bring a picture of you both. I know it won't help A LOT but it will help a little. This also relates back to the keeping in touch part. However, I really doubt you'll flunk or anything. Remember to FOCUS!
You can't avoid fights. They come natural in a relationship. But, if you just try some idea's that you may have to be able to still keep in touch, see eachother, etc, I'm sure the fight's won't be over stupid little things. And, I doubt it will all lead to the "downfall" of the relationship. Very rare that will happen all because of little fights. Can't guarantee their won't be any fights though.
You're right. Guy's like that are too good to pass up! So, stop worrying. Just remember all the plans you made for eachother in the future! Maybe that will help you. And, don't forget how strong your love is for eachother, obviously. As you said, take it one day at a time.
