[FSUZeta]

I had a sorority sister whose boyfriend was a senior in HS when she was a college freshman, and he lived over 8 hours away. She went ahead and attended mixers we had with fraternities and had a good time. I think he came up for our formal that year. After he graduated, he attended FSU and he was able to come to all date functions with her-they got engaged(I know- they were very young) and the relationship ended a year or two later.

When my daughters HS boyfriend was headed off to college while she was still in HS, she asked my advice on whether to "suspend" the relationship so that they would both be free to date others if they wanted to, I told her that was a very mature decision and that I thought that was the best thing to do. That is what they did and looking back, she says that she is glad that she made that decision before he left for college.
