My boyfriend is moving and is hesitant about a long distance relationship

[jlmirish]

I have been dating someone seriously for about three months. Recently he went away on business to NC for 2 weeks in a different state (I am in NY). While he was there he was offered a position and is required to make a year commitment to the job. There is a strong possibility that he will stay there permanently. However, he is close to his family am so I know he will be visiting NY regularly.

 

He thinks we should not see each other romantically any longer since he doesn't want me waiting for him etc. We just found out about this and have started talking about it; if he was staying we would have continued the relationship and would have let it develop naturally. I would like to keep a close relationship as friends and just see what develops. Am I being unrealistic or is breaking it off now better in the long run?

The break up is just because he is moving for a year?

I don't know where newyork verses the city is but that is a little upsetting to know your boy friend wants to break up because of that.

 

I my self would want to keep my relationship with one another because if your serious about one another then thats the thing you do

 

This is just my op nothing more.
