He always says that its me or nobody,he wants to spend the rest of his life with me, i feel the same way. But we are young and long distance...could this work? i keep thinking that if we survive the next 2 yrs apart that we can get through anything together because this is testing how strong we are..do you agree with this?

it is very hard to have a long distance relationship. My two friends love each other very much and they live an hour away from each other and rarley get to see each other and fight all the time. But they love each other to much to let each other go. They are both 16 and 17. They already know they want to spend the rest of their lives together and they have been going out for a year. If you love him with all your heart and he loves you with all his heart the relationship could work.

I was in a long distance relationship with someone that I loved very much. We couldnt make it work past a year... and we're in our mid 20s! Im sorry to disappointed you, but its hard. Its very hard. Especially at your age. You should be out learning about boys and dating that will help you later in life than being in a long distance relationship.
I know its painful, but the best advice I can give you is to remain good friends and keep regular contact with each other, but dont make any promises to be together or stay together and make it okay to date other people. The best shot of this working out for you guys is if you go out there and grow up and develop and at the same time, develop a frienship bond between the two of you over the two years because friendship is the foundation of all good relationships. And in two years, you will see. If it wasnt meant to be, it'll be, but you cant make it or stop it from being so.
