my boyfriend is LDS (M,18), he is going on his mission in october and won’t be back until 2027, we have been friends for a year and have always had feelings for each other but confessed about 4 months ago . We have made a lot of future plans for when he gets back and i truly feel in love and really see myself having a future with him and promised him i will wait for him and ill be there when he gets back. Does anyone have any advice to make the waiting time any easier? I really don’t wanna fall into any type of depression and moving on isn’t really an option. I really need some tips from anyone that has gone through something like this to give me some tips on how to be able to get through it.
TL;DR: my boyfriend (M,18) is LDS and is going on his mission in october until 2027 and i promised to wait for him, does anyone have any tips on how to make the waiting time any easier?
