My boyfriend and I have always kind of been long distance (1.5 hours away) but in 4 weeks I’m heading off to college which is 7.5 hours from him.

I just don’t know how to cope. I’ve been planning on this college since I was a sophomore. I really want to do but at the same time I just want to be near him.

Ever since we started dating we’ve made the 1.5 hour drive every weekend to see each other. I just don’t know how I’m going to function going a month in between each visit. We FaceTime all the time but it’s not the same as actually being near each other or sleeping in each other’s arms.

I have faith that we can make it through the school year, but I’m still scared about the distance. I really love him and I don’t want to loose him.

Any supportive tips or comments are greatly appreciated!
