I was apart from my husband for 7 months while he was in Iraq. I know it's not quite the same as your situation, but it is proof that long distance relationships CAN work. Does it suck? YES...BUT it can & does work ALL the time. If your in a long distance relationship with him, there is plenty of other ways to show your love for each other while your apart and a added bonus is if you can make this work, then the time will fly by until yall can be in college together. If your totally against a long distance relationship then there really is nothing you can do to speed up the broken heart process. I wish there was, but sadly the hearts gonna miss & want him for however long it takes. You could try taking up new activities, hang out with your friends more, do something that interest you..if your just wanting to take your mind off of him.

Just keep in touch, because I met this girl up in Milwaukee and I live near St. Louis, but I know if we keep in touch (We talk on the phone everyday) things should work out. [ tobinator's advice column | Ask tobinator A Question ]

Yeah, the future can seem like forever away. But if you keep contact, anything is possible.
A friend of mine is dating a girl in high school he crushed on very, very hard all through that period in his life. We graduated years ago, but he ran across her a year and a half ago and they were both single.
He said "what the hell" and asked her out. Theyre engaged now.
She was literally the one who got away. The girl who he still years later with NO contact thought about.
They ran into each other and the wedding is next year.
