my girlfriend and I are very attached to each other. Is this unhealthy?

Question

Me and my girlfriend are extremely emotionally attached to each other. To add to it we live a state apart (8 hours). We've seen each other about 5 times in the 3 months we've been together. Obviously not nearly enough. Its starting to cause problems. Every time I go visit her its harder to go. Now, we both feel a part of our being is missing when we're not together. I really don't want to see this happen. We're both 22 years old and we both know we gotta finish school now. We're both Christians as well. She knows I gotta finish school so I can support her for the long run. We both know we're meant for each other but its starting to make me worried when she gets busy and can't talk I feel horrible and same for her. It's like I KNOW this is silly, and I know our love for each other is very strong but as a man what do I have to do to ensure that she doesn't get physically sick over this? I see her at LEAST once a month but I don't want to see this get out of hand. I get worried...

Answer 1

Well first off let me start off by complementing both of you for your maturity in this situation by realizing that school and your educations are important.do not allow yourself to get too worried to the point that it makes you sick.What good are you for her if she has to worry about you being illl?I'm not saying that to be mean but what I mean is, you both have to finish school and when you do, it would be worth it in the long run.
You both are still young and if you are truley ment to be together,then you will be.Love is a very strong bond and the fact that you both have your religous beliefs on yous side is also a plus.Hang in there as before you know it, you two will have the rest of your lives to be together while fullfilling your careers and being able to live a happy life together.
Your lives are really just starting at this point so try to get the most out of it before and always trust your heart.
When she becomes real busy at times, it's not because she wants to be, it's because she HAS TO BE for the both of you.
She maybe just as worried about you.
Stay in contact by E-mail,web cam, letters and pictures.
Even make videos of each other and send them to each other.The love between you two sounds very strong.
Trust me, this will all pay off for the both of you in the near future.Stop stressing, you'll make yourself sick K?
Let me know how this all works out for you and if you need to talk about anything, you both can contact me at anytime.
Good luck

Answer 2

I was married at 21, but it seems that at 22 nowadays, young people are still very mature. If you are really meant for each other and plan to spend your whole lives together, what is a couple more years. These next months are important to your lifetime. You will have your relationship, family (God willing) and home to nurture and help prosper. Patience is a virtue. Next time you two are together, you must sit down and have an adult conversation about where you are headed and what you seriously want out of life.
If I read between the lines correctly, I think you are afraid she might find someone else closer to home. If it's not meant to be, it's better to find out now and move forward. Right?
