My boyfriend and I have been dating for 8 months now, but he's been one of my closest friends for about 4 years. I truly am in love with him and I know this because I've never felt this feeling before. I won't get into that, however. He just graduated this year and is going to a college that is about 2 hours away. He promised me he'd be home as much as he can and I know he will, but I don't think I can go that long without him. He went on vacation for about 1 week out of the country and I was so upset. I couldn't stop thinking about him and was never happy during this time period. I think about him leaving all the time and how much I'll miss him. I don't know what I'll do without him..I've never had a boyfriend like him before. Should I try and overcome that feeling or try and find someone else. I really don't know what to do. I will greatly appriciate any other suggestions. Thank you.

If you two are really in love, you'd make arrangements to make things work. Like plan certain days out of the month to see each other so that you can have something to look forward to instead of getting upset.
If arrangements are not possible, I'd say just to stay in contact with each other whether via phone, cell, internet, etc. Talk to each other as often as you can to relieve the heartache of missing each other.

It's okay to feel sad that he's not there but you'll still get to see him on weekends and school breaks. If I were you I'd try to keep myself busy and try not to think about it(unless it's a positive thought :))
