To begin with, if you love each other, is there no way you can try to make it work? I didn't go to the same school as my ex and that was never a problem, we just made time to see each other. Yes, it was more difficult and I would have liked to see him more, but it some ways it was better because it meant that we always looked forward to seeing each other and it was more special when we did. You say you're in love, so try! You managed for six months, why not now?

If it's your parents who are the problem, spend more time together at your house. If your parents get to know and trust him, then they are more likely to let you go and see him.

If you really don't think it's going to work, then you need to cut off all contact with him. I know it sounds harsh, but there is no way that you can try and be friends if you both still have feelings for each other. Trust me, I've been there. You need to stay away from him and avoid contacting him until you feel you can do so without getting upset. If you try and stay friends this early then you're right, it will complicate things. You won't be able to get over each other if you're still spending time together or calling each other.

If you don't feel you can do it, delete his number. I'm serious. You WILL feel tempted to call/text/IM him and that is not a good idea. Delete his number, remove him from your contact lists on AIM/Facebook/whatever. It sounds drastic, but virtually every website and self help book about break-ups will tell you that it's the best way - and in my experience this is true.

It will get easier eventually. Breaking up is always hard - trust me, I've been there - but you won't always feel this way.
