<human>: Alright. First off, ignore the username, it's a throwaway. This is LONG so I appreciate you taking the time to read it..

Background: My girlfriend (F/21) and I (M/21) have been together on and off for about two years now. The first year was great, we went to the same campus and everything was awesome. Then I transferred to a university 8 hours away. At first, we agreed to give it a shot. We were AWFUL at long distance though, (neither of us really knew what we were doing, never put forth an extra effort for each other) and so when I saw her next over Thanksgiving I ended it with her.

I still had feelings for her so December through May I chased after her (as much as you can through text, calling, and skyping) and eventually got her back. We both promised that we would try harder now that we knew how difficult it was. Over summer I basically stayed at my university's campus while she worked as a counselor in a long summer camp in the same state. Over the entire summer I've probably spent about a week and a half to two weeks with her.

Problem: She's studying abroad in the Fall, so we won't even be able to text. Our conversations will be limited to email, FB chat, and (hopefully) Skype. Both of us will be extremely busy.

I am terrified.

My girlfriend is literally the sweetest, kindest person I've ever met, and I absolutely hate hurting her. I'm afraid that I will fail again in the long distance thing and hurt her. I've expressed this concern to her and it understandably freaks her out. It fills her with an uncertainty about us that I feel would be a worse feeling to have than if we just broke up now. I want her to fully enjoy her travel abroad; not be thinking about some idiot like me.

If I let her go, I've decided I won't dabble in her personal affairs ever again.. but I'm afraid that I may never meet someone else as amazing as her. But if I hurt her and ruin her travel abroad that would be equally as bad to me. What should I do?

Can you give me the gist of the text in a nutshell?
<bot>: long distance is freaking me out. can't decide whether to end it now or try and stick it through and potentially hurt her in the middle of her trip.
