what do you do if leaving the one you love is what seems best? :S

right, i am in love with this guy and have been since i first met him. 5 months and 22 days ago we finally got together and we are going great. however we never get to spend time with eachother. he is in his first GCSE year and i will be starting it this september. i am scared at the amount of cousework he is getting, causing our much limited time together, and im worried that when i am under the GCSE wrath we will have totally different deadlines meaning our limited time together turns from once a week to once a month. i dont want to be in a relationship where we never see eachother but yet im scared to leave him and that he will find someone else. 'cos i want to be the person he is with and loves.

what do i do? :confused::(

I am practically in the same situation with you; my boyfriend lives in New York and I live in Dublin. I only get to go to new york every month or on weekends etc as part of a course, and it is really hard because you may be left without seeing eachother for over a month.

But, you must just judge the situation for yourself; could you survive without seeing him for a prolonged period? If not, you may find yourself becoming slightly depressed and this is not what you want. If you think that it is best for you two to leave eachother or as you might prefer "take a break" from eachother, then do this. If you both truly love eachother - this should not affect the relationship.
I encourage you to act slowly as the affects may be enormous - just talk with him

i already do suffer from depression :/

i was going to talk to him tommorrow but just wanted to get some advice first.

tbh i dont really know whats better, if i leave or if i stay. if i stay then i risk him ending it over the situation explained abouve, but if i leave i risk him finding someone else and i just dont really know anymore :/
