Ask her how she really feels. Right now she seems confused. She is showing signs that she wants to be with you by being so close, but she is also saying that she's worried about leaving to college. Like Debunkt said, I also don't feel that 1.5 hours away is long distance, but it may be more difficult to see her and know what she's up to. How do you feel? If you really like her and think that she is worth starting a relationship with, then you have to understand that there are some difficulties you'll have to deal with. If you can accept those difficulties, then you can try getting into the relationships. It is hard to decide because you also don't want yourself to get hurt later on or waste your time. Think about whether she is worth being in a relationship with, knowing that she will be going away.
