Been there, doin that.
My boyfriend and I have been together (and both in Memphis) over two and a half years, but (as of late July) he's now in west Missouri, and I'm in Virginia. It seems so long. It is hard to do, but it is getting better. We talk pretty much every day. Get the same kind of cell phone and a good long-distance plan.
And learn the lost art of love letter writing.
Or at least care packages. Things will get better, and if you're in love, I think you can make it.
