    Unhappy Uni Seperation

    Hey this question might sound a little silly cos me and my bf been going out for a ridiculously little amount of time for me to have any right to get upset over this but any advice would do wonders

    My bf now is my best friend. I'm 18, in my last year of 6th form, he's 19 and going to uni in Sept.Its a 2hr drive away.
    We have been best friends for about 3 years and since December it developed into something more (he kissed me one night, i thought he felt like more than friends, he told me he didnt (which i now know was a lie lol) later i went out with my ex only for it to end a month later and then found out my friend liked me all along).However,we didn't get together til JUNE. Yeah it took us a while of random kisses and drunken talks only to be forgotten about the next day lol.
    BUT He had always said about 'us' being together and him going to uni - 'we will see how it goes.'
    now we're together, he's my 2nd sexual partner, im his 1st, already he told me he loves me and vice versa and everyone thinks we're meant to be. Yes i know we havent been together long and we are only young but i can honsetly say he is my 1st love.
    The other night we HAD to talk bout him goin to uni-we had been avoiding it.We both said we know we can do it and we want to stay together and we cleared up the fact it had nothing to do with jealously. i trust him 100% and he said fair play, he may be tempted but he would never do anything...he loves me and that wouldn't change.
    i gave him control because it will be harder for him moving etc i said 'it's your choice' and now i have to wait for a decision and its driving me insane. He said to me not to think about it as he cant give me a decision til he knows his accomodation and what uni will be like etc and that we should take one day at a time until then. Now me needing mum advice lol talked to her and she said he was right.his female friend said he was right.Am i being selfish?cos all i want is for him to be happy and i know being in uni will make him but I'm just finding it so hard to wait for his decision becaus it took us such a long time to get to this great relationship and i don't want to see it not given a chance.
    Any thoughts or advice would help.Thanks

    People change a lot between high school and university. There is a whole new world to discover there; new people and new experiences. Your boyfriend will be preoccupied.
    I'm not sure what the "survival rate" is. I have many guy friends in university with girlfriends from back home. It's difficult on both of them, but if your relationship is strong I don't think it's a stretch to say you can make it

    Me and my boyfriend started going out when he was at uni and I was at sixth form. I started at a different uni last September, and we've been about 2 hours away from eachother, seeing eachother every other weekend. We're still together though and today is our 18 month anniversary I'm gonna be honest and say it is very hard to do the long distance thing.. most of the people I know who went to uni in a relationship soon ended up single. I have found myself getting worried about what my boyfriend's doing when he goes out at uni because I tend to be quite insecure. But I think if you really really want it to work, it will. My boyfriend's leaving for France for his year abroad in 3 weeks time, and I go for mine next year, so it's gonna be even harder as we won't get to see/ talk to eachother as much. But I think it will work, because we both really love eachother and I can't imagine myself being with anyone else. I can honestly say I haven't been tempted by anyone since we started going out...

    Good luck!
