My friend is a senior in high school and im not even a freshman yet. We been talking for about 4 years now. We're not together but we really love each other. The only we aren't together is because of what we kno everyone will say. My mother knows I talk to him and how i feel about him. She likes him and things he's very nice. He's graduating this year and plans on going away 2 college. I think that's great but im going to miss him. So my question is "Is it best for us to just stop talking now ?"
The fact is that he could well be done with college before you even get there. No matter how much you like each other, right now it's not possible to make things work, and tying yourselves down in a relationship that will be nothing but distance is a horrible idea.

Things may be hard since he's going away, but you could at least try to remain friends and talk every once in a while, and maybe sometime in the future you can meet up and see where you stand. Just stay friends. Maybe don't talk as often, as it may be hard, but don't lose contact with each other. [ Trauma's advice column | Ask Trauma A Question ]

if you both really love eachother, then dont just stop talking because of school or age or what people might say. you both dont have to be together as a couple to love eachother.. you can still be in eachothers lives and love eachother still.
and i know youre going to miss him, he is going to miss you just as much, im sure of it. and if you guys just stop talking, youll miss eachother EVEN more. and do you want to be a stranger to him and him a stranger to you ? .. i dont think so. however, i think you should talk to him about this and how you feel. communication is key.
but if you think it will be easier to just stop talking to him, then do it. whatever is best for you. but im just asking you to consider how it will affect you in the long run hun.
good luck ! everything will be okay, whatever you decide to do. i hope i helped, and if you need anything else, you know where to reach me :] xxo. [ itdependsonyoux3's advice column | Ask itdependsonyoux3 A Question ]
