It's still not enough time , if you only have been dating 6 months, part of which long distance. It's normal that everything feel fantastic at the beginning of a new relationship. It does not mean that it can 't STAY fantastic, maybe even forever- but it's too early for getting married - and you don't even know yet how would you feel about settling in his country . What's wrong with a student visa anyway ?

No, he is not acting weird, he is acting normal and prudent. He does not even know you basically, you just have been corresponding for the last 6 months , and writing to each other may very easily be all different from LIVING with each other. It is crazy to get married after 6 months even IRL, imagine with an LDR. ( That's what you mean with dependent visa, right ? ).
Get your student visa and see what happens, and don't have too many expectations, what you are feeling now may be intense and strong and pleasant, but still has to be tested against everyday reality - from both sides.
OF COURSE, get a student visa only if his country offers good schools and good opportunities for building your future, and if you'd go study abroad regardless, single or not. In other words, think of yourself first and of your future career, and only proceed if this move makes sense in the general scheme of what you want for yourself.
THEN, if it happens that you also get along with the foreign guy and you have a happy relationship, well, this will be an added bonus and a wonderful gift from the Universe.

What country is he from?
How long have you been dating?
