I've been dating my girlfriend for about 4 months now and we've been going pretty well. It's my second relationship and her first. At the start I saw it as a relationship with a sell-by date of when we both go to university, but over time I became unsure about this.

She seems to like me more than I like her and believes that we'll be carrying on this relationship at university. But where we'll be going will be at like a 5 hour journey and honestly I'm scared of starting something like this.

I've never done long-distance before and I don't know the logistics of making it work. But, I'm scared that I don't like her enough to go into something so big after only 6 months of dating. It's not love and I don't know if that can work without it. 

In an ideal world we would get to September, agree to stop and continue on being friends. Like I said though, she's said she likes me quite a lot so I don't know the feasibility of this. She is also quite emotionally fragile, people have hurt/abandoned her in the past. In some ways I feel it might be better to break it off earlier to save some pain, but that means we're both alone for the rest of the summer.

That's one side of me, another side feels that really I'm just getting cold-feet about the whole thing and her willingness to go ahead at uni has frightened me off a little. It's a case of do I break it off now to save some pain but be alone for the summer/possibly make a mistake, break it off just before we go but possibly cause some pain before a big transition or take the uncertain plunge into a long-distance relationship? 

I don't quite know what my real feelings are about all of this and I'd like any advice of people that have been through this situation before.
