Long distance only works when you know the distance part has an end date. And not a "we're going to get a visa in about a year" thing, but a firm, "I'm moving back on the 23rd" thing. If you don't know when you'll be physically together again it makes it hard to carry on dating since after a while there won't seem much point, and more convenient people around you/them will start seeming more appealing. Speaking from a years long experience that did not end well. I still think long distance can work, but only with the end date prerequisite.
Dump them
"Dating" or "being in a relationship"? If you're going to take it long-term, it would be reasonable for one of you to move. Freelance should make that easier.
I also hear things tend to work out well when you move to the other person's city (without discussing it), and say, "Surprise!!!"
Long distance is a time sucker, a money sucker and a love hater. There's the whole "distance makes the heart grow founder thing" but that gets super old super fast. Also, someone is always carrying the relationship travel load more heavily than the other, and it will wear the traveler down.
