Hi.
First do not rush into any decisions, since you are appart you pretty much have all the time in the world to think everything through.
In a long distance relationship it is very VERY important to have an end goal - i.e. getting together for good, or moving together to the same country, or at least making some long term plans. Otherwise it becomes very hard to stay strong as you start asking yourself what are you doing it for, whats the hassle all about.
So I suggest you first figure out whether you want to be with him, whether you are both prepared to make the effort to stay in touch regularly and see each other when possible. If will all the communication and seeing each other you decide that you are right for each other then you will have to start making some plans for the future.
If you dont see being with each other years down the line I say it is not worth it, staying together, going through all ups and downs of the relationship on your own.
Long distance relationships work if you really want to be with your partner, that you make the effort to keep in touch regularly, be there for each other when the other one feels down, and of course it wont work without trust, jealousy can be a huge issue.
All the best.
