Hi,
I'm a fifteen year-old sophmore in High School and there have been some problems in my relationship. My boyfriend of almost a year and a half is from Italy, he has been living in the US for most of his life and now his mother has been offered job back in Italy and they have a good chance of going back in less than six months. My parents have told me that I'm not allowed to visit him in Europe. I am really distressed. Even though I am fifteen I still believe I know what love is. We have also been fighting quite a bit but I've been trying to make it work. Should I still be trying if there is a good chance I won't see him for the next 2 (or more years), or should I just give up? Please help me. (Thanks)

Myrrha answered Sunday March 15 2009, 11:55 pm: I don't think you should give up, but I don't think you should try very hard either. You both know that it will end, which is why you are most likely fighting, and you should try your best to keep it positive. Work on forming a good friendship out of this, so you will stay in speaking terms with eachother when he leaves. You guys will be able to keep in touch over the internet. As long as you guys separate on a good note, and keep in touch, that will give you more of a chance of a relationship later on when you are adults. Love is a very strong emotion that can withstand time and distance. If he loves you as much as you love him, then down the road there may be a future together.
