Welcome to the forum. This is the greatest place for support during an LDR. I'm sorry you had to move again, but maybe it won't be 5 years. He could move to you during that time; you never know. Hope you find lots of encouragement here.

Welcome to LFAD Although 5 years may sound scary and like forever, you have to make the most of it. Visits and all possible kinds of activities done "together" definitely help to make time go faster. Good luck with everything

Hey Kathy! Everyone here share the same feeling as you, so it is okay to let us know how things are.

Secondly, I can imagine being away can be hard. The place you work should have a holiday allowance of course! Maybe during the summer, you guys can arrange to meet half way. Or you can visit him when you get the free time.
Thirdly, look on the bright side! It may seem your career has torn you apart, but then you can share more to him by Skype or calling him, as well as develop yourself.

I am sure there is a way out. Be positive And Welcome!

to the forum! I'm sure you'll like it here, the majority of people here are very nice and helpful I envy your boyfriend living in Austin! I'm from San Antonio so he's only an hour-hour and a half from my hometown.
