travel dilemma

Hi guys,
I have a dilemma,

My boyfriend and i have been together for a year and 4 months and we are both in love completely happy and very committed we have talked of the future/ kids /marrige etc...

the problem is after i work this year in my current job i would really like to travel and possibly work overseas. the problem is my bf is finishing his degree this year and will need to work here next year or possibly in the mines next year to earn some cash b4 he can even think about travelling...


so it looks like i will have to go alone or waste a year here in a crappy job when i could be broadening my career experience and prospects.

My dilemma is what will this do to our relationship if we are apart for 6 months to a year..is it possible to remain together...or will it pull us apart..im not sure if im willing to risk losing him just to work overseas for a year..and who knows if i will ever meet anyone that loves me like that again..or maybe i will.. but who knows

its a huge risk

what should i do?

Hard situation there..

Well thats a stickey one..I guess you have to decide whats more imoportant to you.. Him or broadining your horizons witch kinda sounds..Like you could make it work but you would rather go then stay.. Maybe just you haveing to ask your self and others what to do in this situation.. Should make you take a step back and look at your relashionship.. And ask if you are really happy or staying with this person cuz.. Your afraid if you lose em you wont get no one else like him..But if you do decide you guys are great togher.. Then some one will have to make a sacrafice to make it work..Na from my past experances long distance tears people apart.. Eather way Good Luck to you guys..
