I might not see her for years...

After a few months, I may not see my girlfriend until I a few years later, but I went into the relationship with the intention of marriage, and I can't simply let her go. I don't know what to do at this point.

Crap, sorry I shall elaborate hold on. I thought I would get another box later on to elaborate but guess not.

I'm a high school student. A junior to be exact. For those of you who are unfamiliar with the education system in the US, I'm college bound, and will eventually go to college in about a year and a half. They say that high school flairs rarely work, and it's best for me to move on, but as a note before I get started, I went into the relationship head on with the intention of marriage. This girl of mine means too much to me to let go, and I doubt I'll find anyone like her, given that I'm introverted, not all that popular or even willing to go out and date people. I know for sure that she is the one that I want to be with in my life, and I know that at least with her, I can we can deal with each other's quirks and still stay sane. The problem is that I know her from a daily afterschool tutoring program, that we both attend. During this time is where we get most of out physical interaction, besides a couple dates here and there and online, where were we talk endlessly. However, my need for this tutoring is diminishing, as my grades have improved enough for me to leave. My girlfriends parents are rather uptight and do not know of our relationship, and neither do my own parents. I know for a fact that my parents would welcome her with open arms, but I highly doubt that her parents would. Based on this, it is unlikely that we'll have any physical contact anymore out of this program. And when she merely hangs out with friends, her fathers (yes, you read that correctly, she has two dads, a step and a real) would sometimes tag along on the side to make sure that she's not doing anything "inappropriate." So in the situation that I do leave, I will never see her again until she gets into college, and even then, it is not assured that we'd go the same university. The chance are almost certain that we won't, which creates even more distance between us. In any case, I foresee a bleak future for this relationship, and I'd like to save it in any way I can, but I cannot think of anything that could work. She has told me that she is willing to wait as long is it takes, and will never break up with me as long as she lives, much to my dismay since I don't want her to suffer if she simply does not have the means to see me anymore. What I'd like is some advice on how to go about this issue, but more importantly how I can save our relationship. Furthermore, I'd like some advice on what is something meaningful we can do before I leave that will leave an impression, and possibly elevate our relationship to another level. Sex is verboten, and anything like a date at this point is almost near impossible due to her parents.

Hey Ms Daisy, Thank you for your advice, and you were spot on. She's a sophomore. But in regards to your statement about going to fast... to that I agree. But to say that this pact thing came about without logic is not the case. My parents, albeit still together, hate each other, which surprises me to as why they still won't divorce. (Not really, because the sole reason why they're staying together is because of me, and once I get into college they'll probably file for divorce.) In any case, the main problem from my perspective is that people fall in love without ever thinking about whether or not they could stay sane spending every moment of their lives with the other party. And in regards to this, I have thought this out, and I can. Even though we're apart, I am able to predict exactly what she's doing and when she's doing quite often, because I do the same exact things. We're just that compatible, and I know all of her negatives: She's lazy, a huge procrastinator, she's pretty incompetent at nearly everything, but so am I, and I can deal with her the way she is, and vice versa. That being said, I have thought a lot about it. It's not like I just fell hard for her. But yes, I don't disagree that I need to take it slow. But I'm still looking for answers as to what I should do with her before I leave the tutoring program, and how I should go about saving this relationship.
