Is anyone else out there completely in love with someone who is far away for a while? This is so hard I'm 16 and my boyfriend is 19 and we only had a month to get to know eachother and fall in love. I have never met someone who made me feel the way he did. Hes away figuring out his life and getting a job he plans on being with me afterwards but its so hard. Im scared that this will break us apart.

Your 16 and hes 19 so be very very careful you still are a minor and both of you have a lot going for you. Ok now with that said, distant relationships can be very hard but its with in trust and the small amounts of time you get to see each other. I'm 19 years old and my partner is also 19 years old. He goes to collage in Botson, MA and I go to a local collage choose to stay close to home and he choose to go far away, but the point is that we are still together we are high school sweet hearts. We get to see each other very little but we talk ont he phone and chat online as much as posible. you have to trust him and believe him. Don't be going and be like are you cheating on me because I think you are and stuff like that. Just keep the convos simple like how are you, how is everything, hows school, hows work, and stuff like that and build up to bigger convos but you got to trust him and don't ever ask if he's cheating bc theres a big chance that he's not.

I'm fifteen, my boyfriends sixteen.
We had a little longer to get to know eachother,
but he distance still does really suck.
Actually, It won't break you up.. if you both
really want to be together. Its all about how
much you really want to try. Because it is pretty
hard. My boyfriend just visited this weekend :D
I live by this quote :
"The best thing about long distance relationships
is that every kiss is like this first"
I thought that was so cute.
Anyways,
If you two really should be together.. then it'll
work. And if he is really committed.. isn't at
all interested in any other girls. Just ask him
to visit as much as he can. It hurts, but its
worth it when you see them. :) [ adrifacee's advice column | Ask adrifacee A Question ]

There is a saying,"Absence makes the heart grow fonder." This is true for the most part. However, if you let his absence get the better of you, chances are it will ruin your relationship. In other words, don't grow paranoid about the 'what ifs'. "What if he leaves me?" "What if he cheats on me?" "What if he doesn't come back?" These thoughts will make you sick, and will leak out to infect him with thoughts like,"Wow, if she's acting like this, do I really want to be with her?"
It's hard, trust me I know. You don't get to see or talk to eachother as much as you're used to, or would like to. But when you do talk, keep a positive attitude about it. Encourage him on his goals to make a better life. Remind him of the awesome time you spent snorkling(or whatever). And always let him know that you can't wait to see him again.
