Can i make a future with a guy who is free spirited and lives very far from me?
I met this guy doing a job for 5 months in a different country. We started hooking up and eventually became exclusive. We never started officially dating since we knew there was going to be a point soon that we both move back to different places in the US but we did go on dates and everyone knew we were together. I know that this guy likes me a lot based off of his actions and my friends telling me that they literally think he's in love with me. The problem is we live in two states that are very far away from each other so even if we were together i'd probably only see him once in 5 months. He also is going to Europe for a full month in a couple weeks to backpack. He also is a very free spirited person and has never - even in past relationships - been enthusiastic about long distance. The problem is I like him a lot and I don't want to lose contact with him. We talk on a regular basis now but it scares me that if i don't tell him how i feel things will just fade out. Should i tell him how i feel now or when he gets back from europe or at the end of the 5 months? After the 5 months neither of us know where we will be living. Is it a bad idea to bring up any kind of long distance relationship to him?
