Long Distance Relationship Advice

[erniegurl00]

Hey everyone,

I was wondering if anyone could give me advice on how to cope with long distance relationships. I know some of you have gone through it, so any help would be welcome!

For the past year my bf and I have been just an hour apart, and I didn't really consider it a big deal because we saw each other on the weekends and then sometimes during the week. I just found out yesterday that he was accepted into a grad program. If he doesn't get a job he's been pursuing here in Indiana he will stay where he is in IL. That means he'd be 3+ hours away for the next two years. I'm afraid I won't get to see him hardly at all because of my own schedule (I'm an exec officer and a Rho Chi, not to mention my own classes I have to deal with). I know good communication is key, but is there any other things that would make this situation easier??

Thanks a lot,
Erin
