It's almost the summer, and I just realized that I'm not going to see my boyfriend for at least three and a half months. I'll be able to talk to him on the phone, but we'll be really far away from each other (I'm going to be in the middle of the woods).
Our relationship has been great, we're moving in together in the fall, and we're really in love with each other.
Does anyone who has been in a similar situation have any advice on how to make it work?

I just wrote him letters because he couldn't call... So if I were you i'd enjoy the fact that he is able to call you a lot... and yes... still write him cute letters... I'm sure he'll like that. Hope I helped... you can write me if you have anything else! =) [ lovelylady11's advice column | Ask lovelylady11 A Question ]

varsity_prep_xo answered Friday March 16 2007, 5:13 pm: if its that serious that you are gonna be moving in together, i wouldn't worry about it. keep in touch and call him and write cute letters/ send care packages or something to him. never question himn about his loyalty unless you have strong rason to, as this is a weak point in many relationships. good luck :) [ varsity_prep_xo's advice column | Ask varsity_prep_xo A Question ]

I know that not seeing each other for three months is horrible and way too long, but you will still get to talk to each other. I think your relationship with him will work out. Just don't put bad thoughts in your head and not seeing him for a while will make you miss and love each other more. [ Teza's advice column | Ask Teza A Question ]
