If you truly love him, that’ll get you through it. At least try it. I’m sure he’s worth it. Even if you get to see him once every 4 months for a while, you know that eventually you will see him every day. :) And with the pain of not seeing him, skype, text and call all the time. Put in a lot of effort to keep in contact all the time. Watch movies together over skype. One thing that helped me when I was apart from Bill for a bit was to go talk on the phone and look up at the moon together. It was nice and special to know we were both staring at the same thing. Good luck to you both!
