Wow, you sound exactly like me and my boyfriend! I'll be about 3 hours away from him at uni, and then back round the corner during all the holidays, so we're hoping it'll be okay. But as we're currently living literally a couple of streets apart, I'm dreading it, and it's going to be so hard not having him around all the time... -

but did you feel you missed out on anything on maintaining a relationship with an absent partner whilst meeting loads of new people at uni? -

I'm 19, he's 28. I know *SHOCK HORROR!* We've been together 2 and a half years now. He lives in Nottingham and i'm in London so moving in together is a big step, but hopefully we're ready! The thing i'm worried about most is missing out because i'm not living in halls. If it wasn't for my boyfriend i wouldn't even be going to uni, i couldn't ditch him just like that!I'm worried about missing out too by spending time with my bf when he comes up to visit and maybe not playing as big a part in uni life.... but I guess they're worth the sacrifice right?!

Nope! Although, as I said, I was very tempted once (I had the opportunity) but realised it was just cause I wanted to have hugs and stuff. -

My bf lived with us for a year and a half before I went off to uni and it was so hard going from seeing him every minute to not seeing him at all. *remembers* it was so awfulIt's going to be hell for me too, I'm used to him turning up on my doorstep pretty much everyday - but if we're strong enough we'll get through it I guess. And we're both quite independent people so it might be good for us to have the space. Aaarghh

Good for you guys, I think you deserve lots of luck and encouragementI'm worried about missing out too by spending time with my bf when he comes up to visit and maybe not playing as big a part in uni life.... but I guess they're worth the sacrifice right?!
. I think he is making a big commitment by moving to be with me and he's been there for me a lot in the past. I really hope it works for you. I want to be updated with all the goss!

In a weird way, I wish I'd never met her. But in a more logical way, I'm glad I did.
