Question Posted Wednesday February 18 2009, 6:56 pm
I've been seeing a guy for about a year now. I'm in my senior year of high school and he is a few years older at a college many miles away. I am going away to college next year.
It doesn't seem like that big of a deal, since our relationship has been long distance for the most part anyways, except for winter break, spring break, and the summer (he lives about 10 minutes away from me so i always see him when he is home). But we talk every single day and we have really fallen for each other.
I've always been one to say that it is stupid to try and hold on to a relationship through college. College is a time for new experiences and new relationships, etc. However, now that i'm actually in the situation, it is hard. I have such strong feelings for him and we make each other so happy.
I just don't know what I'm going to do when I go away. I don't know if we should still try and make it work, or take a break, or end it all together. I'm pretty sure neither of us wants to end it. I mention it every once in a while to him but we both decide that we just want to enjoy the time we have together including this whole summer ahead of it and make the best of it. And then we can talk about it when the time comes. I think this is best, but it's hard to keep it off of my mind.
If i could get some feedback/advice/some of your own experiences and situations (positive or negative), that would be so helpful. Thank you!
