college
i have been dating my borfriend for a year and 3 months and we are very happy and in love with each other. i am a senior and he is a junior. he has dreamed of going to college in north dakota and a long time. we live in texas. i applied to all texas schools and i want to be a teacher. the ND school he wants is a very good teacher school. when he becomes a freshman he wants me to transfer. i really love him and i would love to go to college with him. but its so cold, so far, and my best friend wants me to go to college with her. i know i should decide this, but if you were in my shoes would you go with him?

I honestly don't know what I would do. But the fact that your best friend wants you to go to school to college shouldn't be a reason to go to a particular college. I could understand wanting to be with your boyfriend, but if you end up hating the school you may resent him. Find out more about the school and at least you know the school in North Dakota has a good teaching program so that should be a plus.
Also, he still has a while until he will be in college. Don't stress too much about it yet, who knows where he will end up until it is that time. Go to the school YOU want to go to for now because it suits your needs. If by the following year he gets in to that school, you should go if it is good for your future career and if you know you would like it there.
Good luck!

I know it sounds cliche, but I would say follow your heart. If you really love this boy then go for it, but also consider that youve only been dating for a year. college is ideally four years long, and it seems like at this point in the relationship you would like to think that youll be together forever, but also consider how young you are. Going to college with him cuts off a lot of options for you. It may not seem like it now but you guys might have problems, and then youll be stuck in a school in a different state away from your friends and family with a boy who doesnt care. will it be worth it? i had to ask myself this too.

if i were in your shoes i would play it by ear. this is 2 years away. i would tell him to wait it out and see where you are 2 yrs from now. maybe you will hate your college, maybe he will change his mind, maybe you will work it out where you can see each other 2 weekends a month, its a long way away. if ND had something for me and 2 yrs from now we were still together, i would. if things are still great a year and a half or so from now when its time to decide/apply, i would because then the relationship is getting more serious. it is all up to you , and just keep your options in mind :)
