this is gonna sound harsh (i don't mean for it to but why sugar coat it) don't pass up some of THE best years of your life hoping that if/when you go visit her that it will just pick up from where you two left off. she is gonna meet other guys you are gonna meet other girls. simply put. you'll get lonely, and not just in a sexual way, but having some one there to talk to, just to do the normal things that couples do. don't let someone half way around the globe control what you do simply because you are holding onto a string of hope.

sorry to put it that way but better than beating around the bush. plus i was in a situation like this. granted my gf didn't move across the ocean but still it was hard but once you learn that you can move on it gets better.

I know it bro, its not harsh. I know there is no way to pick up the pieces and just resume a life like we had, I want to start a different life with her. Like, I know the chance is slim but I'm willing to try for her. Thats all she wanted me to do was try...I'm going to for her. I remember the other day....I was driving the caddy up to St. George Island...I remember I had wind on my face, music blairing, my best friend next to me, pipes ringing in my ear...i was just happy. I can be happy without her, I'm not going to let my feelings hold me back from living. I'll know she loves me like she says she does if she comes back...if she leaves everything she has ever known to come back here for me that says a lot, but if no thats ok, I'll move on. I'll only be 19 or 20 when I find out any way, I'll have the rest of my life to chase women.

Edit: I'm not saying I'm going to stop living and obsess over her for 2 years....just that I'm not going to give up, I lived without a good woman for 17 years I think I can do it for 2 more...I really dont want want another gf till I'm partly through college any way
