This guy and I have been really good friends for a very long time, and its always been obvious that we have feelings for eachother. We went to school together until last January when I moved to a different school an hour and a half away. But we've kept in touch a LOT and we still talk every day. Well this year he graduated and is going to college, and I'll be a senior in highschool. His college is almost 5 hours away, and even when he comes home, his house is still and hour and a half away from mine.
Lately, we've been talking about getting together finally, but we don't know if its a good idea to start a long distance relationship with some one who is just about to go to college. That's the only thing keeping us from going out. I trust him, but I dont know how well he would be around other girls while we were so far apart. We really want to be together, but we're a little hesitant because it seems like it would be super hard to do. What do you think? Thanks a ton for your help!

If its love, then there should be nothing stoping you, if you guys really love eachother then nothing will stop the 2 of you from seeing eachother and making this work. You will have to trust him alot as he will have to trust you as well when you guys are apart. Its part of a long distance relationship. I am going to admit, its going to be the hardest thing youll ever do in your life. Its very diffucilt and only some people get through them, for others its just too much. But if you 2 have extremly high feelings for one another then it should work out just fine. WHen he goes to colledge its gonna be hard and more difficult to talk to him everyday, but youll just have to organize your times better and dates. I know wat it feels like cause iv been having a long distance relationship now for 6 months. And your lucky cause my man lives in a differnt country, im in canada and hes in the Usa. best luck to you, if it was ment to b it will work out! Good luck, hope this helps you out a bit! If you have anymore questions, id be glad to help you!

We have facebook, cell phones, text messages, emails, skype, aim, and even myspace. It is so much easier to keep in contact with each other. Technology helps us. So it is going to be easy to keep in contact with this guy. There are multiple of ways for you to keep in touch with him.
Cons: Sometimes life gets busy. Senior year is a big year in high school. It is filled with fun but a lot of work. In between classes, scholar ships, college applications and spending time with your friends you are going to be busy. Trust me on that. There are going to be foot ball games, home coming dances, prom, and senior activities. And he is going to be busy with school, and living the college life. You two will have sperate lives and it is going to be hard to find a time to talk.

Nowadays with cell phones, Skype, and e-mail, keeping in touch is so much easier than ever before. Plus, the distance makes you take things a little slower, which can be very healthy.
All manner of changes can happen over the next few years.
If you think he can only be faithful to you when the two of you are in the same city, that's a pretty low opinion of him. Is that warrented? [ bliz's advice column | Ask bliz A Question ]
