Empathetic Bond With My Fiance

To introduce myself, the name I call myself is Xina. I am currently 17, going to be 18 at the beginning of Feb. 2013. As you will read later in this, I am a highly sensitive empath. I have had an interesting experience with my fiancé, but have been unable to find anything similar when I've tried researching it. I am wondering if anyone here has had a similar experience.

I have been with my fiancé' for slightly over 18 months now, and engaged for slightly more then a year. We became engaged after just slightly less than 4 months of dating. He is one of my best friends, and has been since before we started dating. I was 16 when we started dating and my fiancé' had just turned 17 a couple of weeks prior to the beginning of our relationship. He turned 18 this past May, and I will be 18 at the beginning of Feb.

Three days after we became engaged, I was sent down to my sister's house to live for roughly 3 or 4 months. We came to find out during that time, that we somehow are able to feel each other's emotions when they are highly intense (i.e., extreme anger, sadness, irritation, etc.) This was from Sept. Of 2011 through Dec. Of 2011. I came back home in Dec. Although I was unable to see my fiancé until sometime in Jan. After that, I was sent to a treatment center over an hour away in May. I have only seen my fiance once, on this past Thanksgiving since then.

I'm truly curious if anyone else has experienced something similar to this. I thank y'all in advance for any comments I may get.

I realize that I am young, but I also know that the love I feel towards my fiance is something I have never felt with anybody else before. Our relationship has been difficult due to being apart for so much of our relationship (as I have mentioned, we have been together for slightly over 18 months, but have only actually been able to be in each other's company for roughly 8 months of the relationship.) I also know that I am completely determined to keep this relationship going. For there has been more then distance that has made our relationship difficult, however it has nothing to do with how we treat each other. Please don't criticize me for my age and being engaged. If things don't work out, I know that things weren't meant to be, but I feel a connection beyond anything comprehendible with him, along with a friendship and love few others my age could relate to.
