I am in need of some advice please!
I am started talking to my ex boyfriend from High School again and I have realized that I still very much love him. But we have been apart for 3 years and things are not as simple as just getting back together. The first roadblock is that I live 5 hours away because I am going to college and will not be done for another year and a half. As if a long-distance relationship wouldn't be hard enough there is also the fact that in a few months he will have a baby boy with his ex girlfriend (who absolutely hates me). He is very excited to be a father (and I'm excited for him) but it's something I never thought would happen to me. She will have the baby most of the time but he still wants to be in the baby's life, as he should be. But I am worried about if I could manage having a boyfriend in another town who will have a baby with a women who still wants to be with him. I do not know if, at 21, I am ready to be in this kind of situation. I would love some advice from people who have been in this situation because I am very confused as of what to do. I really do love him and would like to be with him but I'm worried that I won't be able to curb my jealousy or understand the situation that he is in. A life where his ex girlfriend is always going to be in the picture is also something I feel like I may have a problem getting used to.
