Hey guys, so me and my girlfriend have known each other for 2 years and we have been dating for ten months. I’m only 16 but she is one of my best friends and I do love her. This whole summer she has been in Texas with the intention of only visiting her mom for a month and then coming back here. She doesn’t like living here because well her dad and step mom are mean. But she has stayed here for me.
However now that she’s in Texas she wants to stay for our junior and senior year of high school. She wants us to have a long distance relationship but for two years my gut tells me it’s going to be really hard. I can’t imagine being with anyone else in an actual relationship.
But I’m already doubting the long distance which maybe makes me think I should just let her go… I don’t know what the fuck to do if anyone could help it would be awesome thanks
I met my wife at 17 and I spent 14 months in Japan while she was in college (half we were dating and half engaged). It’s doable, but you’ll know, especially at your age, real quick if it’s not going to work. My suggestion would be to not hold on if it doesn’t feel right after a few weeks/months.
It’s completely possible the two of you could maintain a long distance relationship, but it’s 100% up to the two of you. It’s unlikely though as other posters have alluded to.

She’ll cheat on you. That’s what happens if you try to do a long distance relationship. Let her go and find a new girl like everyone else had to do when we were your age.

Come on now, this is possible, but not fact.[/quote]
Thanks for the advice everyone… Even those harsh words. I’m going to just live my life and go with the flow. If it was really meant to be then maybe we will meet again. Appreciate it

Says the guy who’s been with his wife since she was 17. Where, exactly, is all this “experience” coming from…?
edit: that sounded way harsh when I meant it to be funny so I threw in a little winky face there by indemnifying me against any charges of bad taste.[/quote]

When I was around your age, I moved away from my girlfriend and we tried to have a long distance relationship. It didn’t really work; we didn’t see each other enough, we didn’t know each others friends, and our lives were just very different from each other.
After we broke up, we kept in touch with a phone call or two every year. Our lives both took different directions after high school.
Several years later, we ended up in the same state, and eventually ended up back together.
