A female Australia age 36-40, anonymous writes:

What do you do when...

- your boyfriend loves you beyond love itself and you are 100% certain that he would never leave you or fall out of love with you

- you realize you don't love him as much as he loves you but you still love him a LOT and hurting him would be the last thing you would ever want to do

- you're agnostic/Christian (it's quite blurry for me right now, existential crisis) and he's athiest

- you're pretty sure he's not going to convert to Christianity EVER, and if he does, you're concerned he'll just do it for face value to make you happy (and this is exactly what you DON'T want)

- he wants to marry you

- he would make a near perfect husband/father

- you're not sure if you can marry him, but you love being with him

- you start thinking that even though you love him so much, you still think about how it could have been with other old flames (who coincidentally were Christian/agnostic)

- he's absolutely intent on marrying you, that you're the one and he has made up his mind: even if it takes another ten years of waiting

- ABSOLUTELY NO SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE

- he's going away soon and there's nothing I can do about it

- there's the chance we won't see each other for three years, maybe less, but it's not looking good

- it's going to be too inconvenient financially for me to go and see him in these next three years, but nevertheless I still want to go

- I want to keep our relationship going but at the same time I feel I should let him go.

What should we do about our relationship? Break it off? Keep it going long distance? Return to just friends?

This is verified as being by the original poster of the question

We've been together a year and a half, before that it was just friends.

We've discussed things and we both agree that continuing a long distance relationship over the three years he will be away is rather impractical. But we still love each other and don't want to go our separate ways. We keep hoping and hoping that something will happen to keep us together but fate keeps throwing obstacles in our way.
