We broke up for uni, how do I deal with it?

Whose decision was it to break up? Or was it mutual?

By the end I really wanted to stay with him, but I know it would be so hard with the distance. I feel like I should have tried to convince him more to stay with me, I miss him so much and I feel like now I'll never know if we should have given long distance a shot, I'll always wonder if it could have worked!

We're gonna talk today, he'll ring me, I feel like we have a good thing going but he doesn't seem to believe in long distance tbh but then again he's never tried it.

Was officially with my boyfriend for about 4 or 5 months.

Well... I agree 6 hours away is really far. And I understand that breaking up seemed best now (perhaps to save heartache later..?).

But if you're both unhappy, if neither of you wanted to break up, and if both of you still have the same feelings - and if you think you can recover from it - I wouldn't give up so easily. Sorry if that seems harsh; I've never been through this myself, but have seen it happen to a couple of friends, and they've always got back together within a matter of weeks.

I just think that if your feelings are strong enough to withstand the distance, and you love him that much, then you owe it yourself to give it a shot. Would probably be better to have tried again and failed than to not try at all and wonder what could have been.

Try 4 years, you will be over this in a couple of months, just don't rush it.
