Okay, so. My boyfriend and I went to middle school together and we have always been friends. We not have been together for a little over 7 months and are as happy as can be. The problem is, our families move alot and we both moved at the same time and are a few thousand miles apart. Even though we have lasted for this long, do you think it could last longer?
Him and I have already talked about marriage and are basically engaged but any advice on anything would be grateful.
Be aware though, that we got to see each other at least once a month. Less than that, maintaining any real feelings of being connected to the other person is very difficult. I was dealing with a few hundred miles, a few thousand makes a good bit of difference there. We were also old enough to see each other, and I don't know if either of you is old enough to be able to travel.
Something you might want to consider. If you realize you can't do distance on either side, you need to have a frank talk about it. People you've known can have a wierd way of coming back into your life when you want them too. In the long run it might turn out to be a better idea to break up and maintain a friendship, and if life ever puts the two of you in the same places to try it out again. Because if you try and fail to be together the rift there will probably be pretty permanent. [ WittyUsernameHere's advice column | Ask WittyUsernameHere A Question ]
