Hey everyone, first post here, just looking for some advice. My boyfriend and I have been together for a little over a year and a half, he's my first relationship, but he's going to the Peace Corps in the fall (for 27 months!) so we think that we should maybe go our separate ways now, so as to make it easier when he does leave. This would really be too bad since I really love him and I don't know how well I'd do without him. I'm just really stressed about it, and would appreciate some help. Thanks.

breaking up now seems kinda stupid to me. how is that supposed to make things less painful?
if i were you, i would end the relationship on a friendly note when he leaves. "i love you and ill miss you, and who knows, maybe well get back together in 2 years." (implication: maybe not; well see.)
of course, you guys should talk about how you want to deal with this in advance, not just dump it on him on the last day.
good luck!

Totally agree. Tell him, "Let's make the next few months together the best time of our lives!"
That way, you will end on a sweet note with fond memories.

OK, well, if you both know you're not going to be together when he leaves, I don't see how it's going to hurt more to break up then than now, It's basically done. Unless he wants to be free immediately for some reason.

Enjoy it while you can and break up when he's going unless he wants to "spread his wild oats" until he leaves. Be happy that he is doing a good thing and be happy for the time you spent together

I was in the Peace Corps many, many years ago when the only way to communicate was by letter. Depending upon where he is headed his sexual activity may be severely curbed. I wouldn't officially break up at all. If it can't be held together with skype and IM and you traveling to visit, then break up. Act as if you'll be back in each other's arms.
