It's very hard to have long-lasting and committed relationships when you're 17 or 19. Don't blow your opportunity to go to a good college where you'll be comfortable just for his sake. I know that you feel like you are absolutely head over heels for this guy, but we seldom end up with our first love for the rest of our lives. Besides, you have to make sacrifices in a commited and meaningful relationship, because the way life is, you're not always going to be together.
Remember that true love is a very strong bond and there will always be a way to mae things work out. If things are truly meant to be, you'll find some way to work things out so that both of you are happy, comfortable, and are getting a chance at a good education and a happy life.

You are only 17. DON'T live your life for anyone but you. If you want to go home, then home is where you should be. If he loved you (and I mean REALLY love you) he wouldn't ask you to stay in a place that you hate. You are young and you'll meet many more men before you settle on just one. Enjoy life now before you and while you are still young enough to do so.

Everyone at age 17 thinks that the relationship they are in will last forever. But I promise you this, he will not be there forever, do not give up your future for this man. And if he is meant to be your future husband, then you two will weather through the distance. Go to school, you will forever regret it if you don't.

My dear if it is up to 1year you have been together you must have understand him very well by now, please if it will not cost you any pain schooling in there with him please do because distance love is dangerous, with him around you you will love the place, and in a short period everything will be over and you can always go home by then. Love conquer it all, i was facing the same problem 2yrs ago but i stayed with my lover because i know i love him, later i love the place now we are happily married and happy still in that place. if you really love him as you have said and you know he love you, please stay with him. you will not regret anything.

Think of the big picture and what you really want to do for you, and where you want to go in life. Some things come and go in life, people move in and out of our lives, but your focus should be what's most important to you looking down the road...what will benefit you more?
Good luck with whatever you choose (and this would've been more suitable in Singles & Dating)

You should go back to New York, because you will always regret it if you do not go back. If your boyfriend loves you, then he will be supportive of your choice to do whats best for you. If he refuses to be supportive, you might have to dump him, otherwise he could cause emotional drama for you, and that will distract you from being able to focus on your school career.

Go to school. If you are really meant to be with your boyfriend, he'll wait for you. If not, then at least you won't have blown your dreams for nothing.
If you stay with him, you will eventually regret not going, and that will cause your relationship to fail even if it was meant to be.

If you have a good relationship, it shouldn't matter where you go to school. He's being a tad bit selfish wanting to keep you from your goals.
