Hello! This is my first post!
I began dating my boyfriend two years ago, in June of 2016. We began a LDR due to him going away to study on August of 2017 and we are just a few states apart (2 hours on a plane).
Things were a little complicated because we both had difficulty regulating our emotions and and managing mentall illnesses. This led to a rocky four months, which led to him liking another girl, and then dumping me last February. After spending a month and a half apart, we came back together on April 1st. However, he just received the news he'll be leaving this January to study either to France (7 hour difference, 28 hours apart on a plane) or Canada (1 hour difference) He'd leave for around 5 or 6 months. I know I am capable of handling the situation (Well, that is, if he leaves for Canada, which is the most likely scenario) but I am really worried that he won't. This time around, we are more commited than ever and he shows me he's a better person every single day, but I can't help but feel worried. I don't know if I should leave him. He's a really impulsive person, the kind of guy who maybe one day wakes up and will leave me for someone he met abroad or whatever. When we broke up, he said that these types of commitments at our age are boring and stuff like that. We both love each other very much, very very much. I am saddened by the fact that I know I could handle it, but I have a feeling he would not. Maybe he'll get bored. Or lose interest. Or anything of that kind. He says he is capable, and it is just 6 months after all. But I don't know if taking the risk is worth it, because last time he left, I was so deeply hurt, I don't know what I'd do if I ever felt like that again.
