I have had many relationships in the past and been hurt a lot but I have known this guy for almost 3 years and we are like best friends so when we started dating it was perfect, very easy, relaxed and honest. We really care about each other but he has been offered a great job in London, England and plans to move there in a few weeks. I'm very sad about this. I am happy for him and don't want to pressure him to stay because he has made his decision. I don't know if I should spend the next few weeks with because I think saying goodbye will be too hard. But I also don't want to lose him. Any advice?

 I've been in your situation. I met someone in South Africa and it was great, then I decided to move to the UK. It was hard because I had real feelings for him and vice versa.
The first thing to do is, dont ask him to change his mind. The reason being, you dont ever want him to say, you told me to stay! Secondly, although its a short way away it can still work if you want it to.
London is not THAT far from Ireland. You can get cheap weekend tickets if you book in advance. I used to fly up to Scotland to see my boyfriend when I lived in West Sussex. It worked out great! I flew up every weekend and we just spent quality time together. The flights were cheap if you booked in advance too.
You dont need to say goodbye, just, see you soon!
