I have a girlfriend who's leaving the country for a year to study in France. We've been dating 6 months, and I really like her. But I don't know if I can handle a long distance relationship. She's twenty-one years old, and I'm twenty-three. She's my second girlfriend I've ever had. Should we try to stay together, or let each other date around?
Sincerely,
Young and yearning,

Not to worry. In France, only 14% of men are heterosexuals, so chances are she won't be hit on while she's gone.
On the other hand, the drinking age in France is 8, so chances are your girlfriend will turn into a raging alcoholic. Also, French chicks are hot, so she will probably go lez. Believe me.
If you really care about her, the best thing to do is not tell her about all the chicks you sleep with while she' s gone. That's never a good idea. Besides, it will just lead to embarrasment when she reveals that she fucked more girls than you did.
If you are still uncertain, the best thing to do is to call her while she's away. Often. At least 3-4 times a night.
But don't worry about what to say. Just breathe heavily into the phone to let her know you're there. Sometimes that can mean more than words.
And to add that extra dash of romance, call her from an untraceable phone number.
Good luck!

P.S. That "young and yearning" thing gave me a real chick boner.
And it aint herpes?
