Q: Ahhh

My boyfriend is freaking out because he is going to college this year and he doesnt want to hurt me or even try a long distance relationship because he doesnt want to risk anything. He has been talking about becoming friends this summer, talking it down to just that. He didn't know if he wanted to do it before school got out or after. We have been going out for seven months and I dont want him to start talking about this yet, we still have over three months until he goes off to college(which is less than and hour and a half away). It kills me thinking that hes thinking this. I want to be with him so bad. What can I do to change his mind or at least consider a long distance relationship> I know this sounds lame, but he means the world to me and I can't stand the thought of him leaving my life.

Hello
It seems that your boyfriend is a little less committed to the relationship than you. Maybe he's seen other long-distance relationships that didn't work out and so he just doesn't want to try. I don't know if you can make him change his mind about trying for a long-distance relationship. That's going be hard to do if he's really set on it. I think that you should just try to be friends. The reality is he's going to see other females in college and things like that and be in a different environment. Is this relationship mutual, I mean, does he love you as much as you love him? It seems that you really love him a lot and that's making things tough. Being an hour and a half away isn't that far away, when you think about it. If he has a car he could come visit when possible. I believe this also goes to his level of commitment in the relationship and how he's looking at it. Are you in high school? If he just wants to be friends you will need to keep busy with your life and kind of shift your focus from him to other things. Hope everything works out. Smile

i dont quite agree with the above post. because im in the same situation although this relationship is coming to an end anyway for other reasons.
but i didnt want to talk about it either until it got closer then i thought it justs going to be harder if we are together.
he probally just doesnt want to get his hopes up or get hurt, just try to take it as it comes sweetie
