break up if you're not too attatched but stay togather if you're going to be able to see him a lot.

Basically, here's what you should really do. Go into college with optimism for the long-distance relationship to work. Don't break it off for a while and see how it goes. If it becomes stressful at any time, break it off. It's worth it to see how it would work, but it's probably not worth it to work and work at it.

it depends on the relationship. If its a really attached, clingy, do this by this time, no you can't see or talk to them or do that sort of deal, then no. If its a mature one where the only limitations are moral ones andtheres trust, then stick with it but focus on school and meeting people.

Well, that's the thing. We went through the stress of a long distance relationship once before. We did it for 9 months. But I'll be commuting this year, so I'll still live 15 minutes away. And the year after, I'll live an hour away (but planning to come back on weekends to work). And we also talked about it and we think it's worth the shot. I'm just surprised my sister just told me to really consider it. I mean, if I did take her advice, what am I supposed to say to my boyfriend. "I love you, it's been almost two years, but there's a chance that this might not work, so let's just give up here"? lol.

I say don't plan for a break-up. Breakups should only be considered when a problem is having a toll on the relationship.

Oh God, you're not really moving away from him? That's not distance or anything. I thought you were going off to college and he was staying. It's stupid to break it off "just to be free in college."

At least attempt to make it work, I say. My boyfriend and I have been together for two years, and I'm finishing up my second year of community college. When I do transfer to a four-year college further away, I plan on staying with him if we're still together at that point. Why destroy a relationship that could potentially blossom into a lifelong love for no reason at all?

Don't break up with him, just because of someone else's experience. You need to do what is right for you, whatever that might entail. I think you sister just doesn't want you to be that girl that stays in on Thurs and Fridays cause you have a bf. Set boundaries with you bf and tell him you are going to be meeting new people and share with him if he is supportive and really loves you, he will understand.

That's really up to you but I wouldn't if I was single. I want to be more focused on my studies then worry about impressing my b/f. Then if you guys end up having problems it could interfere with your school work...
