Be honest with your boyfriend.... most people change dramatically after high school and it makes sense that you'd be curious about all the new guys youre exposed to. After being on both sides of an unfaithful relationship, I KNOW the best way to handle it is to be honest. It may hurt, but it will hurt a lot less than finding out later that you either cheated on him or that you cheated yourself out of all these new opportunities. Good Luck.

I think you should really think about what it is your want in a relationship. What the most important things are to you. If this is your first time away from home then you will be introduces to a lot of new things and some of them maybe very fun and interesting. In college a lot of guys do not want to be commited. They want to hang out and have fun(mostly drink and have casual sex).. If you just got there dont be so quick to get rid of your current boyfriend for someone you just think is cool. If this guy(current boyfriend) is someone you REALLY REALLY care about then maybe you should talk to him about the situation maybe even entertain the discussion of having an open relationship for awhile. He maybe feeling the same way. If it not someone you really are thinking about having a future with then I would say let him know you are interested in seeing other people you only go to college once. On the same token its not everyday you find a great guy so make your decision wisely.

Talk to him about splitting. Chances are he probably feels the same way, it's hard for him too. Just say so have you met anyone interesting or something like that and the conversation will snowball into splitting. It doesn't mean you can't be friends anymore or that he can't come visit anymore or vice versa. Long distance relationships are hard on both participants, it is nice to try though. Good luck in school.

This is normal. Long distance relationships are very difficult and almost impossible, especially if you are not in "love" with this person and don't see yourself marry him. Most end up wishing they broke up with the person, end up cheating on them and hurt them. It is fair to yourself and him that you guys come to a mutual agreement that you see other people while at school. It is a great experience. Maybe in the future you can meet up and be together.

Tell the high school sweetheart that you would like to date while in college and think he should too. Tell him when you are in the same town you still want to spend time with him.

Break it off and have some fun. You are too young to worry about holding together a long distance relationship. If it's meant to be, you will come back to eachother later. Since you are already having feelings otherwise you may as well get out.

Honesty I would tell him that you wanted to see other people. You are young and what is the point in settleing down when you can't even see him. If it is met for yall to be together then yall will be. You are in college. Have fun. You will have to rest of your life to settle down when you get out of college. Play the field live life and tell him do to the same

Break up with your boyfriend, I'm sure he will find other girls he is interested in too. It's to hard to have a long distance relationship..otherwise one of you might end up cheating on one another. Also ask him how he feels about dating other people..

Best suitable match would be a monkey on tree hanging at ur campus.

if you are asking this question, you know what you want to do, you just need to tell your sweetheart first, because odds are he will do the same thing
