My boy-friend and I currently 'speak' online twice a day and write each other letters.

We've talked about him moving away and, as long as the good parts of the relationship out-weigh the bad, we're going to try and keep it going as long as possible, and hopefully he'll be back in the UK in a year or two.
Good luck to you and your girl-friend. I hope everything works out for you two!  |
Thanks for the kind words, falcon!
While we write lots of email to eachother, I've found that writing letters doesn't work for me. It's far too slow for me (and there's the risk of it getting lost, as well).
You might be surprised when you realize how much you will have to speak about when he leaves. You'll probably want to fill him in on just about anything, even though you're a silent person. At least, that was the case for me. I'm also very quiet, but I'm having the longest telephone conversations I've ever had together with her (you might want to watch out for the phone bill, though

), regularly.
