I Need to Rant

(I've mentioned this situation before, but I kind of need to rant about it again)

I've been seeing this guy for 6-7 months, we are not official but we both like each other.

Issue is that he might be moving abroad to do a PhD. Two universities are interested in him (both in our country) but if they get enough funding, they might send him abroad to do research for them. He is not willing to do a long distance relationship which would mean the end of things for us if they send him away.

Me and him both thought we would find out months ago where he was going but we haven't yet. As universities over here are finishing up exams, I think I'll find out soon. It's the not knowing when to expect an answer that's making me anxious.

We both have exams right now, so this is creating a problem for me. I have been studying but from time to time I'll get emotional and lose motivation. He has exams too and in the past he hasn't been able to sleep because he is also worried about this. I don't want to talk to him more about my worries until his exams are over (a day before mines finish).

I just wish he wasn't possibly going. He's amazing, he is such a kind person and he's never treated me badly. I want to be with him and be able to be near him next year.

His unwillingness to do a long distance relationship would concern me. Not that they’re easy but I would find it hurtful that he wouldn’t even be willing to try.

@LyricalOne Yeah, I see what you mean. Personally I get his point. A PhD is 4 years and he has been in a long distance relationship before so I think based off of his experience he just doesn't want to go through that again.
He did say though that if he gets into the further away city (about 1-2 hours away from where I live) he still wouldn't be ok with a long distance relationship but he'd still consider it. I wish he would be open to it at least for that distance. I can understand ending things if he is sent abroad.

I'm just hoping he gets into the nearby university and that they don't send him abroad. :/
