4givrnt4gtr Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 So, ive been hanging out with this guy for a few months. In the last couple of weeks we've gone from hanging out to pretty much dating The deal was sealed last night, after we had a fantastic date at an amusement park where we had the best time ever. We came to my apartment afterwards, and finally slept together. Afterwards I wanted to clarify what we were doing. He said we were dating and he wanted to make sure we were exclusive. I was bassically in cloud nine...he said he had not asked before because I had said in the beginning that I didnt want a relationship (true, i had just gotten out of one when we started hanging out). And then he killed it... though i already knew this... He told me to remember that he was going to move back to his hometown in august...and asked me if I was ok with that (hometown is 8 hour drive...) He said he enjoy being with me but that he had to finish school and the schools there were where he wanted to go. I knew this a while back...though i was hoping he would choose to go to the school he had applied for down here. Not such luck. So although I said yes, im not really sure....I mean it is 8 months away...and anything can happened in the meantime... But, is it logical to get into a relationship when you know its going to end? In one hand i feel like since that is the case, then we should make the most of these months, and who known maybe we work out so well that he either may choose to stay or we may decide to try long distance for a bit. In the other hand, knowing im gonna get hurt, wouldnt it make more sense to just avoid the whole thing and call it quits right now? He is amazing and treats me really well. Even though I knew that he was going to go move, we've had an amazing time so far. I dont know why our conversation bugged me so much last nite, it was not news to me.... Should I continue with the relationship or run and hide?
birdie Posted December 30, 2008 Posted December 30, 2008 first of all, 8 months is a very long time, you have absolutely no idea what might happen. secondly, 8 hours drive... I mean come on, that's not exactly the other side of the moon. don't be lazy
