Do you know each other IRL and are now switching to long distance, or has your entire interaction been online?
I know him for 1year and we are together for 4month... But I'm going to leave for uni in September (so I'll be in another town)
Of all the people from my freshman year of college who had long distance relationships at the start of the year, none of them were still in those relationships at the end of the year. That’s an incredibly hard / bordering on impossible time to maintain a distant relationship while you’re going through such an exciting time in your life. I’d say set yourselves free.
Well, it depends. Will you be commuting home for the weekends or only visit a couple times a year?
In any case, leaving for uni is long term and without plans for moving together i don't think it can work.
I will try to come 2 weeks end a month and him 2 week ends too... And we plan to live together in two years when he could go to uni too
Edit : English is hard
It’s going to be hard. I’ve tried it once when I had been with someone for eight months, and it didn’t work. But, I’ll give you some of the things that did seem to help at least:
Good luck to you.
