How to deal with upcoming long distance relationship??

I met my boyfriend about a year ago and we have been close friends for a long time and then started dating seriously about 3 and a half months ago. He was laid off from his job 2 months ago and has been trying so hard to find another job. He gets offered what sounds like a great job in California. We live in Nevada. He is very mobile - no house, no kids, etc. only has to take himself wherever he wants to go.





I have a house, a child, and a great job here. He says nothing will change and we will see each other all the time, but I think he doesn't understand how demanding a new job will be and that it won't be easy to just hop in the car and come visit. He doesn't even really like to drive across town 20 miles to come see me, yet he thinks it's no big deal to drive nearly 5 hours one way and that we will see each other.





I just found out on Tuesday that he is moving, and while I'm trying to be happy for him, all I really think is that it's the beginning of the end. And I think I just shut off my emotions because I didn't want to get hurt. As a result, it's made me distant towards him, and now he just thinks I don't care.





I don't know how to be supportive of him when I'm feeling so conflicted. I don't fake my feelings well. Now he is stressed with all the final details of his move and says I'm just making it harder because I'm treating him ';like crap.';





Is it wrong to feel unsure about this? Is it wrong that I can't even bear to hear about it because it makes me so sad? I don't want to place a burden on him with my feelings about this. Any suggestions??

don't be pessimistic. by your attitude, you're ruining what few good days you still have together. he doesn't think that way, so you should see his side too. and you have your priorities there. make yourself busy while he's getting along in a new place. find time for yourself, love isn't about being so dependent to a person that once you go apart, you can't stand on your own. he's open to the fact that you can see each other despite of conflicts on your schedule. meet halfway, and it doesn't need to be an everyday event. there's technology now, like phones and you can see each other through the internet by webcam. try it first before you decide on ending it. being apart is not always a bad thing. it makes you see the effort one has given to make it a point to still show you care, and you miss him. it makes you miss each other to love each other more.How to deal with upcoming long distance relationship??
For the sake of good mental health for the both of you I would no doubt about it break up. It definitely sounds like the relationship won't last...it probably isn't worth it.
aw, idk if 3 months is like good enough to like do anything drastic. like it might end but it's like just enjoy it while it lasts. you know since he's so mobile why do you think he wants to commit. maybe he's just trying to leave. maybe a kid and house scares him. by ex-bf did the same thing. he has no commitment, he has to move around and everythingg :P





but if it's like serious and you know it then maybe the both of you could take your jobs but still be applying to jobs at either of your places so that way when another job offer comes up one of you could move :)
My advice to you is to let him know how you feel. Tell him your concerns about his move. A good relationship is when you can talk to your mate about anything. But it is normal for you to feel unsure about the move. Any relationship is hard. But adding in the factor of long distance is even harder. If both of you are willing to make some sacrifices and compromises than things can work out. But the main thing that both of yall need to do is to keep your communication going. Because of yall do not have good communication than your relationship will not last. Best of luck to you and remember to keep good communication with him.
