Having some relationship issues. We’re currently long distance. I’m working and they’re in school. It’s been going well, but there’s an iceberg on the horizon. Their job does not have locations in my city, and I don’t know if I’ll be able to relocate to their city. I’m not sure what to do or how to think about this. Anyone experience something like this?

I ended a relationship 5 years ago for the same reason. Fast forward, we met again 1.5 years ago and are getting married in the next Months. I don't need to say that I'm very happy.

I'd say do what feels right today and keep an open mind about the future.

Just decided to not start a relationship because we will be moving to different cities. I’m very sad, but this story gives me hope

I just ended a relationship for the same reason. No hard feelings, and we still keep in touch. If there’s an opportunity in the future for either to relocate, we’ll pick things back up.

Think about if you want it. If yes, you’d be thinking about how to relocate to their city. It’s not that big of a deal if you think it’s worth it.

If you aren’t naturally thinking about it, are you not very sure?
