I used to be that girl who thought long distance relationships were just plain stupid; quote from 16 year old me 'Why would you be with someone who lives in a different city when there are so many other people right here?'

Since a lot of you will be saying a temporary goodbye to your significant others at the end of the month as you head back to school, we though we'd make the transition a little easier for you.
