<p>Cece-
I wouldn't let the boyfriend be too much of a factor. There is no guarantee that, regardless of the distance from guy, she won't find her 'true love', in that new place, in the first semester. I did. I didn't have that 'full college experience', but lots of common memories with my hubby. We've been married 28 years!</p>
<p>I hope so, actually many of our friends have said that to me. But, she is really "devoted" to him. To give you an example, she is going back to Boston with our son this evening. (He graduated from Bentley in '04 - GREAT school) She left our house at 7:15 this morning to spend time with him since she will not be seeing him tonight or tomorrow. She is interviewing at Wheaton in Norton, MA, tomorrow. My friends have advised me that the less I say the less I will be "pushing" her into his arms so to speak. Congrats on 28 wonderful years of marriage! We just celebrated our 26th this past fall.</p>
