I don't know...should I break it off?
I'm in a LD relationship right now, and it IS a pain, I get lonely sometimes. However, I do know i love him, and have faith that despite parental evilness, despite a complete and total lack of money and free time that I AM going to see him and I AM going to live with him someday. The trick is making that someday a reality, and spending as much time as possible talking to her, however you can.

Concentrate on your friendship, without the additional burden of a "relationship," and if you still feel for her (and vice versa) after you graduate, then you know it was worth it.
If it doesn't work out, at least you'll be friends.
Very very very very very few relationships will survive four years of the Academy. You will be a completely different person after only a short time.

This is Snoota's pointless post of the day. Not only am I not desperate enough to do that, she is what is known as 'jail bait' to us growed up folk.
What's the age of consent in Nevada? 16 is fairly average as states go . . .

Not that that's ever stopped teen loving from taking place.

In the end, I think it would be for the best.
Very few teenage relationships last after high school. You do a lot of growing up during that time and make a lot of mistakes, and most relationships can't survive the "baggage" of it all, if that makes any sense. I have a friend who recently broke up with his fiance after being with her for five years. They knew each other so well and had been together for so long, that it was hard for them to finally break it off. They just grew up in different directions and made a lot of mistakes, relationship wise, simply because neither of them had been in a real, mature relationship before. In the end, they couldn't forgive each other for the mistakes that most people simply make as a learning process that comes in life.
Of course, that's just my opinion. I know it's a gloomy one, but you asked...

But anyway, I suggest you give it a try for a few months and see if you're happy. If you just break it off now without knowing, you might wonder if you did the right thing later on.
Yes LD relationships are hard, and a lot of them do fail. Some survive the distance though.
If nothing else, take Sages advice and be friends without the relationship part and see how you both still feel after college.
