Dear boyfriend,
Having only been in close-distance relationships in the past, never did I ever think I'd commit myself to a long-distance one. That is until I met you away at college, and who I've fallen hard for. Throughout the school year, you are always by my side. You are my favorite study buddy, my dancing partner at all the parties, and my best friend. Of course, you're still my best friend, but due to the one thousand miles between our hometowns, we've had to adapt to a long-distance relationship for the summer.
There have been ups and there have been downs during our time apart. There've been long nights, nights that I've cried myself to sleep because I miss you so much. There've been beach days and concert nights, when all I could think about was how much I wish you were here, experiencing all these fun times with me. Although you're not physically here with me, I appreciate you and adore you for continuing to be so sweet, supportive, and loving, even from halfway across the country.
Overall, I know this will be good for us, to spend some time apart, and enjoy our families and hometown friends. I know that at the end of this period away from one another, our relationship will be even stronger. If we can withstand being apart for three-four months out of the year, we can take on anything.
See, I do still consider us to be the lucky ones as far as long-distance relationships go. We still get to see each other for the majority of the year, and for that, I am so, so grateful. In the meantime, until we're reunited back at school in the fall, we'll have to stick to the daily FaceTimes.
I miss you tons! Our reunion will be so sweet; I am counting down the days.
Love,
Your girlfriend
