I'm devastated an heartbroken of the thought of him wanting to leave me. I'm the same an he was alway there for me, he's never been unfaithful before but its a long time. How's it going so far? I don't know what to do.

It will be hard, but it will get better as time goes on. Your routine will change whilst he is away and you will adapt to him not being around for a while.
Try and keep yourself busy, meet up with friends, take up a hobby, even write a diary whilst he is away to help you cope.
As for worrying about him meeting other females whilst he is away.... try and delete that from your mind otherwise you will just become withdrawn, bitter and upset. Our minds can sometimes get carried away and do more harm than good....we can become our own worst enemy.
Try and think positive and use this time to do some quality things with family and friends.

 I think you should maybe consider talking to him and telling him that you guys should agree not to date anyone else during this period.If he's never cheated on you, then i don't see any reason as to why he will cheat in the future.Have a little faith. :)

It will do you both good for both of you to be apart for this brief spell - if it is meant to be it will still be there when he gets back. Six months seems like a long time but it will go very quickly.

I know it doesn't feel like it, but as he says, 6 months isn't very long, at least you have some way of keeping in touch. If you feel you would like to phone him, email him instead, but don't expect an instant reply.
You have to find a way to keep busy, see friends, do you have any hobbies?
