My boyfriend and I have been together for about a year and a half. We get on really well and I’ve never been in a relationship as healthy as this. Recently we went on a 2 week vacation to the U.K. where most of his family lives and we had a very nice time together.
His dad passed away when he was younger, and his dad is from a very big city in the U.K. (think something like london). My boyfriend wants to move there for a while once he is done school next year (not this upcoming school year but next). I am applying for grad schools this year and I’m planning on applying all over the U.K. especially focusing on this one city but my program is extremely competitive and I’m not sure where I’ll get in. I really have to take what I can get in this situation.
My boyfriend says he wants to move to that big city regardless because it is something he feels he has to do to connect with his roots. Totally fair. He says if we work out, that would be ideal but if not, it is what it is. He thinks of himself as someone who wants to become the best version of himself and not let his happiness lie in being with other people. I can see why he thinks this way because many people in his family are divorced or have toxic relationships.
I’m not sure how to feel because he tells me he’s in love with me all the time and treats me in ways that proves he is. I love him very much and appreciate our relationship but I just don’t know if me feeling upset over this is unreasonable.
tl;dr: my boyfriend wants to move to a particular city he’s always wanted to move to with or without me and I feel guilty for being sad about his dreams
