I think it's important for you both to experience the college life - but if you can do that and still date then you don't need to break up. I've seen people do exactly what you are considering and find that what they had was wonderful and want the other person back - basically what was out there was not even close to what they already had. You can still make new friends and be with him if that's what you want. Good luck and have fun in college!!!

It's a good idea because the long-distance college boyfriend never works out. It's a bad idea because it sounds like he's good for you (even if you didn't mention love).
If there is a way you can 'take a break' without breaking up, that would be great, but unfortuanately if you end it, even on great terms, it may be hard for you two to get back together. So you have to ask yourself what your future together is. Will he join you at college next year? Do you see yourselves staying together for years, or do you just feel funny breaking up when there isn't a personal problem between the two of you?
If he's the one, hang onto him. If he was a great high school boyfriend but you probably don't have a future, cut him loose before school starts.

I'm going through the same thing! I'm 18, I just started going to college, and I've been with my boyfriend for a little over 2 years. I actually considered maybe giving it a break, but it so wouldn't be worth it! I haven't found one person yet that I would be willing to lose my boyfriend over...! Maybe you should see what kind of men are wandering around your college before you dump your man for someone that doesn't exist.
Good Luck!

I was in the same boat when I was your age. I held on for about six months after I went to college out of guilt. (He was my first, he bought me a lot of jewelery, ect.) I really wanted to want him more than I actually did. I finally got up the nerve to break up with him & he was devistated. I still have a little guilt 10 years later, but it was the right thing to do.
I don't think anyone can have the whole college expereince with old boyfriend in tow. You need to take this time to find yourself and learn about life.
Good luck!

i wouldn't leave him unless you have a reason. just because your in college doesnt mean your previouse life needs to change, if its good. you can still make friends go to clubs parties and be in organizations,THEN if later down the road you end up meeting someone else, then you know its the time to call it quits.
BUT you have a good thing infront of you.- you dont want it to go away.-
im 20, I go to college and live w my b/f - it can be done its just if its what YOU want to do-Good luck!-

I don't think so... I think if you have been together for that long then its pointless to just give it up now...thats so long, and so much work into that...and if you say your perfect for eachother and he sounds like a great guy, then why give it all up...if you give it up you may never get it back...I wouldn't, if you run into something that makes your heart beat faster then he does, then maybe think about it!

No you shouldn't. If you like him this much and you're happy in the relationship there's no reason for you to end it like that. Just be happy that you're in a good relationship.
