[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I dunno. Maybe I'm crazy, but don't think it's that cut and dry as PPs are making it out to be. I guess it depends. How long have they been dating? Does your "mom sense" tell you this is a real thing, or more infatuation?

My sister transferred from William & Mary to Penn State back in the day. Told our parents and herself that it was because she wanted a bigger school, but realistically...it was because of the boyfriend. They'd been dating since junior year of HS. The recently celebrated 20 years of marriage 🤷‍♀️ And the Penn State degree didn't stop her from taking the exact path she intended on taking from William & Mary (UVA Law School).[/quote]

Awesome that it worked out well for your sister.  However, statistically it much more likely to NOT work out.  I would never encourage a kid to follow a BF/GF to school.   If the relationship is meant to be it will happen.  Met my husband during summer after sophomore year (college).  we were long distance for 2 years, then got married and were long distance for another 2 years while I was in grad school.  Happily married for 32 years. 
Oh, and this was back when long distance cost $$$ and email was barely a thing.  Have to imagine with FaceTime, cell phones and all the technological advances  that it would be even easier now[/quote]
