Is it a good idea to pursue a high school relationship during senior year? I can't predict the future of this relationship, whether or not it will last, but in all likelihood we will be separated by college. I'm going on to college and the girl is still going to be in high school. Is it worth it?

Is this the person you are going to be will until you die? Probably not. It will end. It practically has an expiry date stamped on it. You can still date her if you’d like, but if what you want deep down (and it’s what many people want) is a life-long partner, it’s almost impossible that this girl is the one.

Your relationship will suck, you'll meet people you want to date who live a mile or less away and are a part of your new college life in ways your high school girlfriend will not be.
I think that so long as you're both realistic, it's whatever. I dated a girl second semester senior year. We liked each other, wanted to try it out, both agreed that when I went to Austin, TX and she went to New York for school that it was over and parted amicably. Haven't talked to her since, but it was fun while it lasted.

As well as if she wants to put effort into your relationship. If you both want to be with each other then you both can make it work. If you can see yourself with her and you two talk about it then it can work. Just make sure she realizes since you'll be going to college that not all your time is gonna be spent revolving around her because of work, ect.
If you don't plan on this relationship lasting, don't get with her. If you want to make it work, then you can if you both want it. Good luck! [ lightoftruth923's advice column | Ask lightoftruth923 A Question ]
K3587 answered Sunday October 31 2010, 4:53 pm: I'm pretty pessimistic about young relationships, so I would typically say it's a waste of time. However, I'm 23 and still dating my high school sweetheart. In the end, if you're willing to give it a shot, even a long-distance relationship can last. The biggest issue is trust. If you can 100% trust each other to stay faithful, your biggest problem is solved. In the end, I say go for it. [ K3587's advice column | Ask K3587 A Question ]
Sweet_LiL_Angel answered Sunday October 31 2010, 4:32 pm: You have to ask your self this question. Is it worth it to you. Do you feel that you and this girl could have a long distan relationship. Do you care about this girl enough to be faithful to her while you are away at college. Is this girl going to be faithful to you. Do you see some sort of future with this girl?

AdviceMistress answered Sunday October 31 2010, 3:41 pm: Well this is a question that I can give you advice on but in the end you have to decide what you want and whats more important.
How long have you been with this girl? Can you see a possible future with her? How far away are you going to college? Will she be able to visit?
If you care about her and you love her try and see if you can work it out.
If not then maybe take a break and figure out what you want and need to do for your career and for your future. You may also want to have fun in college with the parties that go on and the events too. She'll be in high school still and you'll be living the college life. I think if you're questioning this now than you need to have a heart to heart with her and express your concerns. First think to yourself and ask yourself what you really want!
Lola answered Sunday October 31 2010, 3:05 pm: To be completely honest, if you're here and asking this question, it means that you don't really love this girl, as in love love, as in true love. It's probably just like another person your dating and then you expect that one day you're going to break up, like you know that she's not the one.
People who are really in love, don't even think of that, don't even think that since they'll be seperated in the future, then should they continue their relationship? On the contrary, they think of ways to be together, and they even start planning how would they manage seeing each other, and when would they visit and how they'll stay in touch, some even go to the extent, of changing their whole future for each other, like changing colleges next to her high school, or she transfering next to your college. But when you come here and say, is it worth it? Then no, it is so not worth it, and I say that without doubt, without even knowing anything about your relationship. Do you understand what I mean?
But my advice to you is, somewhere along the line, you might discover that she IS the one, only time would show. So I suggest for you not to break off the relationship, because why would you? what would be your reason? Like ' oh I discovered we will be seperated after a year, so I'm breaking up with you now' it doesn't make since, and it would hurt the person in front of you, cause you have no reasons. Maybe she's an amazing person, and yet you break up with her, why? You know. I think you should continue with this girl, and if things really don't work out for solid reasons or if before you graduate, you still think she's not the one, and your still questioning yourself if she's worth it, then break it off.
