I started dating this guy for about 3 months now. We've hit it off really well, but he will be moving across the country to start his surgical residency in ortho at the end of this month. I have finally come to understand his busy schedule as an intern. There has been a couple of bumps on the road and I'm realizing that there will be more bumps on the road if we were to have an LDR.
I definitely want him to do well and not have to worry about our relationship. I'm thinking about letting him go and just being friends. I care about him a lot and I really want our relationship to continue, but I know I'll mess things up whenever I get upset. He also gets upset at the same things I get upset about. He says he'll transfer back in a year so I'm hoping I could have my trust in faith that love will find its way.
That way, I won't be planning things ahead and trying to work our schedules around expecting to see each other a couple of times a month. I don't plan on dating other people and he doesn't either, but he will be 3 hours ahead of me. I'm not in the medical field so my schedule is flexible on weekends to go see him. How should I approach him with this without making it seem like I've made the decision without him? I don't necessarily see this as a pause, but more of a "to be continued."
He's already told me to visit him, but there hasn't been any arrangements in timing yet.
