reader, anonymous, writes (27 February 2007): Hi, there, well, you sound like a wonderful boyfriend and a great person, and your girlfriend is treating you very maturely by suggesting that you ease back a little before she goes away.
I know you don't want this relationship to end, and it doesn't have to, but it may become more of a close friendship at a distance and you may need to let her go or you both will be crying in your pillows, and trust me that is no fun and no good for either one of you.
Long distance relationships are very hard, and sometimes can keep you from enjoying your life in the present surroundings and cut you off from others.
You are very lucky to have had such a good relationship with her at such a young age. Every girl you meet from here on out will probably have to live up to her standard. You are young, however, and you have your whole life ahead of you, best not to get too serious too young.
This will not be the last wonderful girl you have nor the last time you will love and be loved, take comfort in that and be grateful for what you have gained instead of resentful for what you have lost or might lose and you will be well ahead of the game.
My thoughts are with you.
