Need long-distance relationship advice!!?

So in my my boyfriend and I will have been dating for 6 months and I know I'm going to marry this boy. But also in May he's moving to California for an 8 month internship (we live in Colorado) I need any advice on how to be okay will all of this and how to deal when he's gone!Need long-distance relationship advice!!?
hey hun, im going through the exact same thing. my bf and i have been together 11 months and in june he will be moving away for a job....and isnt sure when he will come back!





the best thing you can do is spend as much time together now as possible, talk about whats gonna happen between you guys, ask questions! does he see you in his future? will he come back home? will he come visit (if its possible), can you go visit? basically, you both need to sit down and have a long talk.





i wont lie, it will be hard but as long as you communicate, either by phone, webcam, email, then you will be okay. you have to keep up the communication, or else you will grow apart. If you both love each other then dont worry. if its meant to be, you will stay together. :) so have high hopes!





meanwhile how to deal when hes gone? catch up with old friends, focus on school (im assuming ur a student?), spend more time with your family and if thats not enough maybe take on a project. for instance, compile a bunch of pictures of you two together, some momentos, and start making a scrapbook or photo album of you two together, even include some pics during the time you are apart...pics of you, pics of him in Cali,. then when he comes back you can share it with him or even give it to him. thats a suggestion





try not to worry too much about it, i know what your going through is hard, its hard for me too but you will be okay





good luckNeed long-distance relationship advice!!?
It's a matter of trusting him. If you know he'll be loyal to you, then there should be no reason to come up with a way to deal with anything besides missing him.





California has a big party scene and you should keep that in mind. This doesn't mean that I'm saying you should worry that he might do something; however, figure it out before he leaves. You've been dating this guy for 6 months and you already think you're going to marry him so you should not have any problems dealing with him being gone.
If you don't want to stay away from him and if there is a chance for you go and move out with him for that 8 months and find a job there. But if there is no chance try to see him as much as you can
i had a long distance relationship for 3 years and we just got married....


the thing is ... trust, trust, trust and talk alot on the phone and see each other whenever possible... with gas prices so high it may not be often but when you can fly out and be together..


it will be fine, if you really love one another.
daily communication is a must, trust and honesty is you need, share you thoughts. 8 months is not long for loving relationship. Stay strong for both of you.
this is your chance to give him all your support... he needs to go and do what he has to do.. it will be great if he left knowing u trust him and love him and most of all that u will be there when he comes back...there is no need to panic or feel lonely when he is away.. call him everyday.. tell him how much u love him.. let him know its ok and that time go fast and u two will be together and will make up for those months he is away..give him something to look forward too.. it will be easier for him and u...good luck to both of u...
