Is it impossible to keep a highschool boyfriend in college?

College Selection
I’ve been with a guy since I was 15, I’ve just started college, and it’s pretty hard. I chose a college close to home, so I could commute and still be near him, but now I’m started to regret the decision. I feel like I’m missing out on the typical college experience by living at home & I’m not 100% sure he’s worth it.
I guess what I really want to know is how to balance college with a boyfriend?

It’s not impossible if you are truly in love.
However, I would imagine that it’s going to be very hard for you.
You are going to meets lots of MEN at college, some of which you may be attracted to. So be prepared for that.
If you truly love your boyfriend (and him still being in high school doesn’t bother you) then you need to resist the temptations that are going to eventually happen.
I don’t think the “typical college experience” is all that great, by the way.

ok well i mean you have to pretty much decide if your unsure on the whole thing between you and your bf OR the fact that u feel like ur being held back from college experience. cuz i mean theres no point in considering not takin things further with your bf if the only reason ur down is cuz ur missin out on college experience.
my roommate has balanced both, hes bf lives about 45 min away and she lives in rez at r univ. and her bf drives down every weekend and she still can have the “college life” you know?

From a boy/mans point of view?
I think that it wouldn’t work, only because I’ve saw this happen a few times in my group of friends and it’s always failed.
When I went to College, I met lots of girls, whom had boyfriends either back home or up here where I live. And they were attracted to me regardless of their boyfriends.
This isn’t me being full of myself by the way! lol! It obviously took time for their feelings to develop. But what you have to thing of is….
1. You’re going to see fit guys.
2. You’re going to probably talk to them.
3. You’re going to see and talk to them a lot more than your boyfriend.
You should live the college life, you’ll regret not doing it. I did. I stayed home and did college instead of Uni, I’d give anything to have done it the way I planned, but things change
Your decision.
