<p>AEgirl, I think you’re being too pessimistic. Just because your ex and you decided to end things because you believed it wouldn’t work, doesn’t mean it’s the same for everyone. Granted, the odds of it working out are not the greatest, but it can work. If anything, the long distance thing won’t be a problem if you two are truly in love, but you will both grow up and will be different people by the end of college(which would happen even if you went to the same school.)
So to answer your question, you can write each other letters(call me old fashioned, but it seems like a romantic reminder that you are thinking of the other person), and visit each other at school if you have the time and money to do so.</p>
<p>I wish you and your girlfriend the best of luck</p>
