Not sure about being worth it - more like, it seems like a good way to really resent each other. She'll be back eventually, and if things are the same, we can pick up again. I considered long distance, but it just seems like a good way to get bored of someone, and I'd rather have the pain up front than break up for a stupid reason like that.

How often could you see her over the 4 1/2 years? This would be long distance from the UK - Russia (i.e., no visiting the whole time).

They can work sometimes, Shell. They just come to an end like everything else does, and you're left cold and alone.

try it, it's only a bit of blood. a little smelly too, but it's all good. just don't do missionary, and make sure your pubes are well trimmed.

You did the absolute right thing. Plus, she'll get over it easier by the sheer excitement of being in a foreign land. It's so important be brave enough to admit when things aren't going to turn out - painful, yet confident in knowing that the future will hold even more rewarding experiences and relationships.

Good bull. My GF and I are going to have to go through that if we're still together in January. Doesn't sound pleasant.

We decided to email each other once a month, and if we end up feeling the same later, she'll visit me around Christmas.
