I love him so much and he's unlike anyone I've ever met.Thing is, the distance really doesn't seem to bother him. At the moment, he's on holiday with his friends while I'm stuck at home studying for exams. I'm so bitter and I know that my texts have been moody and I surely must be being a burden to him while he's there enjoying himself.How do I rid myself of these feelings?! All would be fine if I could just make the 200 mile move to be with him, but there's several reasons (eg - money; having to move in with his parents) why I'm thinking twice about that.If I feel like I'm always making the effort, should I continue?I know that, ultimately, only I can decide. But any advice would be welcomed. Thanks very much. Xx

Green_Eyes is verified as being by the original poster of the question Thanks James - it's good to know that other people can relate to my situation. As you know, long distance is hard work...am trying to weigh up the pros and cons all the time - lists a mile long!
Head vs heart...hmmmmm...

I was in a 3yr realtionship, I believe only the distance made us fail, we discucced moving up / down etc but 120 miles is a long way esepcially as we were still in our early twenties. You need to make sure he feels strongly about you, way up your home life nad then decide, the grass always looks greener, - it rarely is! If you beleive you would be happier 200 miles away with him, go for it, just way up the pros and cons, follow your heart, not your head!!If you follow your head, you will stay put xx

Green_Eyes is verified as being by the original poster of the questionThanks Baby Girl :-) Your advice is realistic and puts things into perspective. I know that some extra time with him would be beneficial, cos I feel like we lead totally different lives most of the time. I'll try to keep my emotions in check about the hol cos I wouldn't want to ruin it for him. Cheers again, and all the best with your counselling studies. Xx
