Should I break up with him before going to uni

I love my bf very much but I'm going off to uni in September and he's not so it means we will be 2 hours apart, i feel bad for the thoughts i have as hes really into me and we are each others firsts, I also want to socialise and meet new people. Should we call it quits?

Yes because statistically most pre-uni couples break up so just do it now.

It’s true but if they actually love each other, they should stay together? Forget the statistics.

Nah, I'd still recommend ending it but obvs her choice.

when you love someone, the idea of breaking up doesn’t even cross your mind. Figure out whether it s love or just attachment. If it is just attachment break up now and suffer now, then suffering more later

I've broken up with girlfriends that I loved very much. Due to key compatability issues that had no work-arounds.

Love is great, but it's not enough.

There are times when it's the right decision to get the logical half of your brain to over-rule the emotional half.

If the brain was used logically from the start, you wouldn't t get in a relationship which you know will definitely end, no? unless you are not looking for something long term. Why wait to break up and both people suffer?

It's remarkable how many people here feel entitled to provide you with their very direct and unnuanced advice without knowing more than the two lines you gave us, merely on the basis of their own experiences (which do not necessarily translate to your situation) or "statistics".

Only you can decide whether or not you should end the relationship. That being said, perhaps you should explore for yourself why you are considering ending a relationship over a two-hour distance. Many people I know have managed far more challenging distances successfully. Are there other reasons why you consider ending the relationship? Are there specific aspects you are unsatisfied about? Or do you just want to "see what's out there" without having identified grievances about your boyfriend? It's fine to feel that way, and many people experience something similar at some point in their lives. Some do find that someone else is more compatible for them and others may not, and may at some point regret leaving someone they loved for something undefined and perhaps unrealistic.

In any case you're young, and it's likely that your preferences today are still subject to evolution, ie what you want now may not be what you want for yourself in five years. So try not to get to "existential" about the whole thing. Do what feels right and what you think is best for you at this stage in your life. Take time before deciding and talk to people you trust. Be cautious about other people's feelings but don't lead anyone on. You'll be fine.
