A age 30-35, * writes:

Im really close to boy mate and I have been for 3 years now and I've recently fallen for him, although he doesn't know it. We get on so well, talk all the time and text each other everyday. I really like having him in my life but he is going to Uni (about 150 miles from where we live) this year and I'm not going to see him for 3-4 years and the thought really upsets me. Worse still, he won't be moving back when he's finished Uni!I'm dreading not being able to talk to him! Nothing will be the same. Theres definately nothing I can do to stop him going so are there any ways of moving on once hes gone? Are there any ways to forget him?

Thanks

xx

There's nothing to say you won't see each other again. If you care about each other strongly you can and will make the time at weekends, holidays, days off etc to visit each other. You have to use your own discretion when deciding whether to tell him you've fallen for him. The thing about living apart and seeing each other for one weekend every few weeks is that you tend to get on better; there's less time for arguments and you focus so much on being with each other you forget negative aspects. This could make your feelings stronger, or the time apart could give you some space to think. It will be hard to be apart at first, but you will quickly adjust and there's so many ways you can keep in contact - text, phone, email, IM that him moving away certainly isn't the be all and end all of your relationship, whatever level you leave it on.
