I need relationship advice!?

My boyfriend came round for dinner last night and told me that he's moving to America with his job. He asked me to go with him but I don't know if I can. I have friends and family here who I love and who love me. I was on the phone to my best friend most of the day and he doesn't want me to leave. I don't really want to leave either and I need to stay here because of work. I don't think I can move to America with him but don't know how to tell him without hurting him. I love him but I can't just up and leave with him. Do long distance relationships work? All answers gratefully recieved.I need relationship advice!?
Tell him the truth that your job is here and your family and friends are here too and that you love him very much but right now is not the time to up root your life when everything you love and need is here...and that you will miss him very much and that you guys can visit each other when you get a chance or when he gets a chance....but right now is just not the time for you to just up and leave everything....let him know that if you had a job opportunity out there the circumstances might have been different and you may have considered coming out there but you don't want to come out there with no financial means to help out.


I personally don't know anything about long distance relationships but my sister has had a few and they've never worked out for her....however the relationship did last for about 2 years with them talking on the phone a lot and a lot of flying back and forth to see each other but it becomes very costly to do that....good luck and don't feel guilty about standing your ground or about your decision..staying where you are is probably the right decision.I need relationship advice!?
Is he going to America for the rest of his life? Well long distant relationships do work (because I was in one), but if he's going to live there forever then it seems like it could be hard. Maybe you could live where you are now and when you're ready you can go to America.
You have to tell him of course - just have a chat about it.....stay cool.


Long distance relationships do sometimes work - it depends - they come under a lot of strain tho - loneliness, and wanting him.
Tell him what you said up their ^^


He might want to move their because of his job but is it what you want.....





Long distance relationships.. well it depends give it a try!
