Maintaining a long-term, long-distance relationship... Is it possible?

  • Thread Starter

Hi everyone,

So, I recently started dating this girl from my school and since we are both just about to go into Year 11 together, it got me thinking a little bit. I don't anticipate any serious problems occurring in the next year, and I am hoping that we will be able to enjoy ourselves and have a great time together. The only issue is this:

What happens after the year has ended? We don't get to meet up a lot (in fact, usually never outside of school due to strict parents on both sides) so school is the only place we get to interact apart from the occasional outing together (but this is very, very rare). I really want to maintain a long-term relationship, but how does it work through college. I mean, what happens if we go to different colleges and very rarely get to see each other? We talk to each other a lot on social media, so communication is definitely not a problem, but meeting and spending time together is central to any relationship. I understand the relationship would not necessarily be 'long-distance', but considering we would not really get to meet each other freely if we were to attend different colleges, it becomes almost long-distance.

It seems that we would both have more freedom when going into University, so we would definitely be able to see each other more often in University, but then the idea of long-distance comes in since it is very, very unlikely that we would get accepted into the same University.

I suppose my question is more just a request for any advice or opinion that anyone may have in regards to this. It would be great if someone could speak from experience, and I'd be more than happy to answer any questions that I may not have answered in this post.

Thanks :)

P.s. if anyone is wondering, this is the first girl I've ever dated and we've been dating for over a month now.
