Is this going to hurt my relationship?My boyfriend is the best I could imagine. He loves me, and I'm not concerned that he'll cheat or anything while I'm out of the country, but is there other damage that could be going on?People say absense makes the heart grow fonder, but we've had some issues in the past while traveling without contact. That, however, was my fault, not his. (this time we will be able to have contact, hopefully over email and maybe the phone if we match up the time difference. How much do calling cards cost in Italy?)How do I not ruin something so good when I kelp leaving it miles and miles behind?Thanks!--GG Reply to this Question Share |

If you were away for a year, and came back and spent quality time together and reassured him you love him and really had a good time, then the absence would make the hear grow fonder. If you were away for a year, came back and did nothing, then eventually he would wander.
The point is, so long as when you are together you are having a great time, and you're really putting effort into each other, this relationship will work out fine, and could become even stronger. Without effort, it will fall apart. It's about effort. So before you go, make sure you spend good, quality time together.
