You make it to the rough times with each other, then you can do anything. My man and I were in a long distance relationship for a year when I was 16 and he was 20. It was rough, and you can't help but suspect foul play going on on the other side of the court, but it was really just paranoia kickin in. Now, almost seven years later, we're married and got 2 little girls together, and you know what? It kicks ass, and that year apart made our relationship unbreakable. Good luck to the two of you.

When you were 16 and he was 20? =/ That's a little big illegal.
But he has a little bit of a different situation probably. She lives in England, he lives in America. Having to go across a sea to merely be with your girlfriend would suck. It's unlikely he'll be able to move back to England any time soon. And a year of not seeing a person would be incredibly hard.
