I met this girl a month and a half ago. I didn't actually "game" her, although my inner game has improved enormously lately. We started dating a month ago, and I couldn't be happier with our relationship (well, see below) - we usually say "I can't believe it's been just a month". She's a very high value girl - beautiful, fun, smart, with a great career, and so on. I really, really like her.

The thing is, she doesn't like living here. In less than a month she'll move to a different country, over 5000 miles away, to pursue a master's degree. The degree should take one year - but after that she's not even sure she wants to come back.

I guess you see my problem. I could visit her, she could visit me, but we'd see each other, say, every other month, when we're currently seeing each other every day. Keeping a relationship this way would be very hard, but doable, if she'd come back after one year, but even that is uncertain.

If she wasn't moving away, I'd never think of ending our relationship. But she is moving. So the three long-term scenarios I see are a) she moves back here, b) I move with her, c) we break up.

Objectively, I know it's been just a month, I shouldn't even be thinking of option b) - I never gave serious thought to moving to a different country, although my work is such that I can grab my laptop and work anywhere there's an internet connection. I'd hate to break up for external reasons. Bottom line, I don't know what to do.

Any bright ideas? Anything I'm missing here? If you have been in a similar situation, what did you do? Did it work?

You sound like you don't want to be apart from her, and that

I would go with option b, and go with her, if I were you, not only do you have the option (with your job), but it's your only good option there (breaking up would be a lame waste, she's probably not going to move back). You can work together to make it, and if it doesn't work out you can always come back home.

Hey, at the very least, it's an opportunity to see some of the world, and have a chance to live in another country with a beautiful all around attractive girl who is into you... most people would be chomping at the bit for an opportunity like that.
