Just one other thought (having been a girl in love once upon a time): You can’t control the distraction aspect at all.

What I mean is:

a) I think a settled-in BF would be much less distracting that a new love (thus if she’s not with BF, she’ll be more than likely to meet some new guy and THAT is distracting).

b) Distraction is perhaps greater if they are trying to get together while apart (you’ll never be able to monitor or control her seeing of him far away so don’t even go there).

c) She went out with him in HS and he obviously didn’t distract her there to interfere with her performance.

d) College is, by design and youth, FULL of distractions no matter what. Part of maturing is learning how to balance every day school commitments with so much that is fun and new!
