So I (22F) met my bf (23M) on smoochze (yk the meme dating app) and we dated for 1.5 month and still ongoing (we’re not in love yet – still getting to know each other but we match our vibes alot).
His friends know about me and his cousins know about me.. and I think he really likes me.. from what I know. I’m doing my college in Bangalore and his intership was here.. and got permanently placed his in Kochi from here itself.
He really doesn’t wanna do LDR cause of his past LDR trauma but he said and I quote “We’ll figure something out!” . Also my flatmates says you really can’t do LDR if you don’t know each other through n through. So I’m really sad that there’s a 50/50 of this not working out cause he wants to stay around me while being in a relationship which is not possible as we’re both still building our career. I’m very anxious and saddened 🙁

There might be some cultural context, but I find there are generally two options when you know things have an expiration date – you either enjoy it for what it is while you can (summer love) or you but things short and focus on yourself for a bit. It can depend on your temperament and your ability to kind of disconnect some of the romantic wiring
Sometimes people meet at the wrong time. This might be one of those cases. Long distance is really hard, especially on new relationships. It’s OK to feel sad.
