I have a boyfriend, and we have been in love for two years. But we'll be in two cities, even two countries later, for 4 or 5 years. I'm worried about the the long-distance communication and the uncertain future. But I really cannot give him up. Friends, what should I do?

In your situation I would try to find out if there was a way I could go with my boyfriend to the country where he was going to spend the next years. If it was impossible for me go with him I would at least visit him at often as I could. The distanse between the countries and costs of the travelling would stop us from meeting that often, but I would try hard to save up the money to visit him and I take a second job if it is was neccesary to get the money for the trip. Aside from that I would stay in touch with him via the internet, the phone and parcels with small gifts or things (food etc) from he might miss in his new country.

It is convenient to communicate with each other via phone and internet, but there are some problems that the technology cannot settle. You are not familiar with his environment, so that the common topics will be less. The message cannot transmit our emotions and expressions, which will make some misunderstanding.

How do you spend the 4 or 5 years in long distance love? I have the same situation as you, but it is lucky that I have my summer holiday and I can accompany him. Why not going to his city? Is the distance too far? Why not buy a car?

Talk it thoroughly with your boyfriend. Express your concerns about long-distance relationship and try to gain his insight in the process. If you two are really matured enough, I have no doubt that you will surpass the test of long distance and the test of time, as well.

Well i can suggest you to move on with him to the place where he will finally settle. Otherwise you could also keep in touch with him over phone or through social networking sites. Even nowadays people are using web chat facilities to connect with people living outside the boundaries.
One more thing to remember that if your love is pure then distance can never let you both down.

The most important thing on a long distance relationship are you have faith, you trust him and you love him. Just follow your heart darling because you're the only one that can tell the what you really want. If you follow your heart, no regrets just peace in your heart. ;)
