Hi there,

I am 27 have recently starting seeing a guy who I know thru a bunch of friends - we were friends first and have known one another for about 8 mths. He is 24 and we both have pretty good jobs.

I suddenly realised I fancied him and he fancied me too and we finally got it together about 3 weeks ago and we have spoken most days since and we get on so well. He is lovely and I have been out with some complete arseholes so am thinking this could be something really great, the thing is he has planned to go travelling for a year which seems like a really long time! this has been planned for a while. He will probably go in october time, nothing is booked yet and I really don't wanna get in the way of his plans but I guess it may be the end of what we have, I dunno I have never been in this position before. Should I just go with it and see how things go? We are going on holiday with all our friends in a week.

Thank you for your help.

xx

Tisha-1 agony auntI'm with Waterloo on this one. Just relax and enjoy the relationship and getting to know him even better. You never know how things will turn out, so don't worry right now about the future of the relationship at this point. Obviously, don't pressure him into not going off on this dream trip (I know you're not) and enjoy your holiday with everyone!

Oh, and wear sunscreen. ;)

Just relax and go with the flow. Talk to him and let him know that you dont want him to stop his plans and that if you are both free when he comes back, then maybe who knows, but life is strange. My cousin did this. She fell for someone and he went off on a planned trip, but in the meantime she met someone who she fell in love with and now they are married with kids, and she is so happy. The bloke came back and he wasnt bothered at all, in fact he is now settled down and married with kids also. So you can never say what might happen in the future. Try and relax though or the whole thing will be fraught with tension and if he doesnt go because of you, i think he may regret it in the future.

take care
