Me and my fiancee were apart for 2-4 weeks every single month in college. Going on a damned trip with a friend for 2 weeks is NOTHING. If she's making a big deal about it she needs a nice cup of Stop Being A Drama Queen®. The friend invited you, not her. Guess what: a trip with a friend isn't more fun with your SO along. It alienates the friend who invited you and then it becomes you and SO with friend tagging along instead of the friendship-building trip it should be.

Uh... yeah, what he said. If she's going to guilt you out of a TWO WEEK trip of a lifetime, then this is a big time red flag. If this were a 6 month thing, then that's a tough call, but 2 weeks... c'mon? Yeah, 4 years is a long relationship for a 24 year old. But a 2 week break for something that is really important to one member of the realtionship should serve to strengthen it, not break it apart. If it does break it apart, then this is a great way to come to the realization that she's not "the one."
Bottom line... GO!
