What do you think about having a long distance relationship during university?

It's going to be really hard for both of you. But if you trust each other and your love is very strong, you'll survive. Being away gives you lots of tempting possibilities, however, everything depends on you, your attitude and self discipline.

Trust is the key, always communicate in every possible way.

I read this a couple months ago, it might give you a rough idea what you could do to make it possible.

I did it.

My boyfriend and I got together the February before university, and are still together having just graduated.

It wasn't always easy - you have to learn to make adjustments for when the other person is busy/studying/socialising etc when they'd normally be spending time with you - but it was definitely worth it. You just have to put in a little more effort than normal.

To be fair, it can definitely work if you both always put 100% effort I'm the relationship. Trust is so the most Important aspect of a relationship, so if you both love, trust and put the effort in, it will work. 40 miles isn't even that far in hindsight.

Keeping up my relationship as it went LDR is one of the best decisions I've made (well, it wasn't really an active decision - there was no questioning we were going to give it a bloody good go).
Granted, the past year he's been at uni and I haven't, but we could only see each other once every two weeks. It'll be once every three weeks once I start uni (and a larger distance), but as we've got through a year already I see no reason why the next few years won't go as well.

I understand your nerves, but give it a shot. I'd rather have my boyfriend and miss him than not have him at all!
