Can long distance relationships ever work when you are a college student?

I am 15, but i am thinking that my boyfriend and I (we are in a long distance relationship) will be together for a very long time. The only touble is, he is not going to the same college as me and I'm wondering if it is worth it to stay with him all through college years, even if he is far away. This may be difficult because of new college experiences I will want to have. Is it worth it to stay with him?Can long distance relationships ever work when you are a college student?
Dear Camra,





I know this sounds very cliched... but still it is the truth... that at 15 you are at that ';crush'; age where emotions and physical desires are at their peak. Long term relationships by their very nature are difficult to maintain. Any healthy relationship is based on trust, respect and shared experiences. In your case you are just starting your life and many many more experiences will work upon you and shape you. In short you will evolve. So, my advise to you is that don't think in terms of continuing or discontinuing your relationship... simply try to be good friends first and let time decide whether your friendship grows into something else.

only if you have trust and are determined to be together.
It can work but it's hard work and both parties have to be in agreement about the long distance and being honest.
It can work, but it's not to say that it will. You're awfully young and have to decide if you want to stay with your boyfriend (exclusively). College offers many new experiences and this relationship may not be right. If you're meant to be together, you will be in the end. Corny I know, but true. My husband and I ended up together after a very long, very long distance relationship for 3 years. It can work, it's just up to you if you want it to work.
I think you must find out another way to be with him when you are studying in college. It may seem to you that it is worth but in real terms there is nothing worthier than standing on your own feet with your diploma. Wish you luck in college.
I LOVE HOW NIAVE U R - NEVER CHANGE! i think the only lasting long distance relationships are open ones - so many chances to cheat i suspect one of u will - sorry that sounds harsh but true
yes when you see each other it will be even more special and you can visit and tell each other about your experiences and you will have a stronger relationship than before
NO! long distance relationships rarely work out. Besides as your mind expands so will your views about people, and outlook about life and where you fit in. Remember we are but a small piece of the puzzle and sometimes it is difficult to find our place within the puzzle.
Wow. If you're 15, that's quite a while ahead to be thinking of college relationships. A lot could happen between now and then that could change how you feel about each other or even how you see each other. Don't get so ahead of yourself. Talk to him about it and see what he thinks. Planning this without him will only cause problems. I guarantee it.
i wouldn't have one because every time i knew someone that had one it never worked out.so i wouldn't even try to have one.
well I'm 15 too and i have a bf still in his last year of college!! for some people it works but for other it does even work for a day!!! SO just go with your heart and follow him!!! if he breaks your heart then just get over it and go for seconds in the men isle!!!! there are more fish in the sea!!!! have fun!!!!!
