Farewell to a Girl Friend
There are many affairs that can separate you from your girlfriend, geographically of course. Saying goodbye to someone you love so deeply and consider an integral part of your life is never easy.
You can, however, make the process of moving away from her slightly less painful for both yourself and her by writing her a goodbye letter, reminding her just how much she means to you and how important it is for you to have her support during the time of separation.
In the opening paragraph, state the reason for leaving your girlfriend, like getting a scholarship or a job in another country.
In the next paragraph, talk about the strong bond that you have with your girlfriend and how hard it is for you to be moving away from her.
In the final paragraph, ask your girlfriend for her support and let her know that the current circumstances do not indicate the end of the relationship.
Try to include best wishes and valediction in the end of your letter such as “your adorable” or “only and always yours.”

11th January, 2013
Dear Rosie,
You already know that I am leaving London and moving to America, but before I leave, I want to say goodbye to you. Trust me when I say that even though you and I will be miles apart, our hearts will continue to beat as one. Do not let yourself think that I am leaving you as that is not true. I cannot even imagine a life without you and it is for this very reason that I have taken this step.
My love, you already know that the University of Chicago has awarded me a full scholarship for the Masters in Finance programme. Getting the masters degree from the prestigious university will surely increase my chances of landing a good job in the future.
As much as I hate to leave you and move to America, this is a sacrifice both you and I have to make for now to make the future secure.
Rosie, please understand that whatever I am doing, I am doing for us. Never forget that you are the one who makes me complete and that even though I am moving to America, I am leaving half of my soul behind.
I really want you to support my decision as it will ease my pain of not being next to you, not being able to smell your sweet fragrance, not being able to touch you and kiss you.
I will come back to you as soon as I can. Until then, please take really good care of yourself my sweet angel. I love you.
Only and always yours,
Rocky -
