We're hitting off great! But...
« on: July 23, 2009, 08:59:49 PM »
So, heres the story. Right before the homecoming dance my sophomore year of high school, my girlfriend Brittani broke up with me.
Reason: I was irritated with her, and her best friend made up this story saying I was talking to other girls (who are actually just friends of mine in NJROTC), and that I called her a bitch.

Soon after, me and Amanda got together. I actually asked Amanda to go to the homecoming dance with me, 3 hours before the dance.

Anyways, back in October, Brittani and I met up at the beach during a beach bbq i hosted for a bunch of german exchange students.
We made up once I told her what really happened.
We've been talking since whenever we pass in the halls at school, and texting. As friends though.

But now, we're talking, and well, flirting a lot.
I asked her out, and she said she would love to go out.
Right after she breaks up with her boyfriend who puts her second to everything.


We're hitting off GREAT!

But, i'm moving away to dallas, which is 600 miles away.
I loved her in the past, and we're hitting off great right now.

But, I dont move till midway through august.

A long distance relationship is something that I would settle for with her. Even though I do not wish to do that.

Does anyone think I should  go for the relationship, with 600 miles between us so soon? Or should I not dive into this?

Honestly,
I wouldn't jump into a long distance relationship right now. You'll be dating her for the next 2-3 weeks, then what? It might be bliss for the moment, but in my opinion, don't get too involved. LDR's are a pain in the ass (I'm in one right now). If you really want her, sure, go ahead, but jumping in an LDR after 3 weeks of dating... wouldn't advise it. ;)

Yeah, as shitty as it is, it's best if you don't jump into this. 600 miles is a ridiculous amount and unless you're a baller and can afford to take plane rides back every weekend, I don't think it's worth it.

Out of sight, out of mind. No matter how much she says she loves you, unless you're there always keeping her engaged with the relationship, she's not gonna keep feeling this way for too long. Eventually, she'll start to grow more and more distant with you and it'll make you feel like utter shit.

When I was away for college, my girl and I experienced a lot of relationship troubles because we couldn't see each other more than once a week if we were lucky. It was a pain in the ass 'cause we started to talk less and she started to hang out with other guys when I couldn't be there for her. It doesn't help that she's a bartender too and she's always got a queue of dudes that'd love to snatch her away from me.

Also, 3 weeks is kinda short. Maybe you guys can be friends and pick things up sometime later? Or she can be a temporary hook-up?
