My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and a half and he is the only person that I have met that is very much like me. I rarely ever meet anyone else that is similar to myself. But, I decided to go back to college to get a real career (I'm almost 27) and now live very far from him. We've maintained our relationship for almost a year apart from each other. We barely see each other since I don't have the time and it's costly for both of us. Almost every night we call each other on the phone, but it's becoming so emotionally difficult for me since we can't see each other. I am also realizing that I am going to be here for another 4+ years and that he won't ever be able to move with me because of his work. What do I do?I've been thinking that we should seperate since we won't be able to enjoy ourselves together for any reasonable time until many years later.I know I won't find anyone else like him and it's killing me, and I am not just saying this like other girls who then are off to the next guy within a few months after they finaly get over it.Also, I think it might be more damaging for him to stay in a relationship with me since he is the type of person that likes to go out with friends and have a good time.I on the other hand generaly don't like most people and will be devestated to lose the one person that I've found after all of these years that I could at least be friends with and on top of that, fall in love with.I just don't know.

 I say if you realy care for him that much, keep at the long distance. Long distance is hard, anyone who's been in a long distance relationship will tell you that. But it can be worth it too, just to talk to him daily and know that after you've done what you needed to do, you can be together again. If he cares for you too then he'll also be more than willing to put up with the distance.
