To break up or not to break up? That is the question

Today my boyfriend and I had the awkward conversation. To break up or not to break up?  I'm going to college in exactly 4 weeks from yesterday, and I knew what I wanted, but not what he did.  I've been putting off this conversation because I'm nervous for college, and this conversation meant that it was coming closer.  I was willing to try to make the relationship work, not sure if he did.  For awhile I thought it was going to be over.  I wasn't sure though.  Today. We had the convo.  He said...that he wanted to try too!!!!! I was so happy to hear this! It's going to be hard I know, and I know that a lot of people think that we should break up because people change in college, and new experiences etc etc... But those people can just keep on talking.  I know what I want, and now I know he thinks the same.  It might not work, but why would just give up without trying? Because it could.  I'm the happiest I have been in a good long while.
