<human>: So summer is ending and so must this fling I started with a guy I met right after I graduated from high school. We had a good few months together, but I will be moving a couple states over for college very soon and we both knew that. There's no way either of us was gonna let this turn into a long distance relationship cause it was never a real relationship to begin with.

The thing is, he wants to keep in touch and I've been used to clean cut breakups where you just cut off contact completely. At first I thought he was just looking for a biannual source of sex (cause I'd be home for winter break and summer) but when I asked if he would still want to see me if I had a boyfriend he said yes and that we would just hang out as friends. And that I should contact him every few months and just let him know how I'm doing because he likes me.

Also, since I grew up in the Silicon Valley and I'll be studying computer science in college the chances of me being in the same area as him for upcoming summer internships or even indefinitely for a job is very, very plausible. And it's definitely possible that we would be compatible in a long term relationship (provided we're in the same city), there just wasn't enough time to figure that out and I could just be idealizing it.

Could you distill the essence of the text into 1-3 sentences?
