different school? Options

[me1issaaaa]

Okay, so I've known this kid for a while. We've been good friends for a long time, but we've recently told each other that we like each other and everything. He told me he wants more than just a friendship but he doesn't want to rush it or anything, you know the deal. I'm fine with that. The only thing is that he goes to a different school about 20 minutes or more away from mine. It's not a big deal, but... we probably wouldn't be able to see each other more than the weekends or an hour or 2 after school IF WE'RE LUCKY.

Good idea? Bad idea? I don't know. I really want to be with him and I really think it could work.

Any advice'd be great, thanks. <33

[EmmalieV]

um good idea!


he doesnt have to go to your school so you 2 could be together..

[*stephinika*]

thats a good idea...thats not that far. that sounds like how i am with my boyfriend, and it works. go for it.

[kikyoudefender]

I'm in the same situation as you, and I only see him like once a week because he's in high school and I'm in the 8th grade. But I think it might work out so I think you should go for it.

[Shattered_Hope]

it's only 20 minutes far away from each other..at least sometimes you'd get to spend an hour or two after school with each other..and you'd get the weekends together. So..I think that it will work out fine if you two put forth the effort.

[dahding]

gopher it. u really like him, he really likes u. nothing wrong with a little distance. gopher it.

Me and my last boyfriend had the same distance. It worked out fine for us. As long as you 2 get to see each other during the weekend, then I think it's a good idea. Also, with spring break and summer break coming up, there will be plenty of chances to spend time together

If you guys really want a relationship you'll find a way to be together.

[DrEaMgUy2K1]

just go for it, you only got one life haha. Its not really a long distant relatoinship cuz seeing each other is easy for you . 20 minutes ish is nothing, and u can see each other more than 2 times a week, thats great :O .

[cHuNsAbAbIe012]

blah! 20 minutes is nothing. there's always the bus or train u can take. that's how far my bf lived far away from me. now he lives even farther. lol! but he has a car now. go for it!

[me1issaaaa]

Yay, thanks a lot. I love you guys.

Yeah, I didn't really think it'd be that big of a deal, but the only flaw is... neither of us can drive. I mean we both have out learner's, but since that's the case, we both kind of have to depend on our parents to be free so we could get somewhere... Or just drive and hope not to get caught. Haha. But thanks so much again.

Oh, and another thing I forgot to mention: I'm moving this summer, so then it'll be.... nearly an hour distance. But heck... I don't really care. Freeways are a great way to get somewhere, right? And it's not until June, so....... yeah.

[YaWeaveIzOnFiyah]

Hey..I understand your situation. My boyfriend lives 30 minutes away from me and we just recently started seeing each other more frequently. It doesn't render anything in the relationship, though. As long as the emotions and commitment are there, you two should be fine.

[subzero]

i would think it would be better if you were at seperate schools. 'cause wen ur at the same school you see eachother ever other passing period, kiss, then go your seperate ways, over, and over again, gets routine. But wen you go 2 seperate schools and dont see eachother that often, the anticipation builds and when you do see them (on the weekends or whenever) its that much more awesome

[ichiban]

20 minutes isnt that far =) just talk on the phone often or something or webcam!

[Teesa]

good idea!
You guys can easily keep in touch by phone and AIM..it will be a little hard, but you guys can do it

[bad_girl]

good idea. u might never find another.. making u could arrange to get together sometime..

[my_sunshine]

GO FOR IT! + talking on the phone, chatting online, etc.

if you`re still unsure, then just "talk" for a couple of weeks (maybe months 0_o;;) and see if it works out :P

[CUTEBUNNY160]

go for it!!!!

[_sarcastic_]

i'm like you cept my bf lives in another country
if you really think this could work then yeah go for it. 20 minutes away from each other isn't really far apart. Good luck

[quiescentvoice]

i had something like that going on for a couple of months, we thought we could work things out..but then jus not seeing him for awhile got to me and we were almost a year being together and jus before that i broke up with him because he changed..not seeing him everyday was killing me and then suddenly things changed.. so let's hope that doesn't happen to you.. it's good to be friends before taking the relationship further.
