He's also incredibly busy most the time as a doctor and works long hours. So far we'e made an arrangement to see each other twice a week. When we first started dating we knew he would have to leave to another city to work, and it was unspoken that we would have a great six months and leave on a high. He's lately been trying to persuade me to stay together. I've told him I'm not keen on a long-distance relationship. The city he is moving to is not that far away but it's going to be a very expensive and challenging arrangement to meet every weekend. In addition I plan to go travelling in 6 months anyway, so sooner or later we'll have to break up, he wants us both to commute and stay together with a less couple-y arrangement. I feel my heart and mind are split, am i making a mistake here? I don't really have plans to enter another relationship but I know as long as I have one waiting for me it will hold me back from truly being independent and travelling and growing. I'm petrified of losing this wonderful person, and he says if we break up it seems likely we will lose touch as that's what happens in most relationships with distance. I don't know what to do, I've never met anyone so special, I don't think I'm in love with him (but have the potential to be). I don't want to jeopordise any future prospects, yet we both have plans for the future which it will be difficult to intertwice. What is the best way to deal with this situation?

You want to give up on a relationship with a Doctor??? And he's a nice guy??
Why can't you do both? Commit to a relationship and still go on your traveling excursion. You can't travel forever.
