Hey,
I totally know what you mean. My boyfriend was originally going to go to the RCMP, which demands a non stop 6 month training in the middle of the Praries in Canada. We both live in Vancouver and I am still in the middle of trying to finish my degree, so it was a big stress point in our relationship just discussing it. He's probably going to be going next Fall, so even though I am in the green light right now, it still lingers in the back of my head.
However, if you two have a good, strong, solid relationship filled with love, respect and trust, just hang in there. Me and my boyfriend know that it would be hard to talk on the phone, so we planned to have many emails between the two of us.
My friend actually planned her wedding while her fiance was training in the 6 months, so she definately had something to keep her occupied (plus exams, essays and assignments)
Just plan lots of "you-time" and meet up with some friends. It will take your mind off of him and when you get home to write him an email or a phone call, you know you can appreciate eachother so much when he comes back to you.
