Posting on my main because idc about this account, if I get banned somewhere for posting here who cares. Just wanted to see my life situation from this sub's point-of-view.
My (19F) now ex-boyfriend (21M) of almost 2 years recently moved 200 miles away from our hometown for work after graduating college and will most likely be moving another 500 miles again in the next two years for another job he is still being vetted for. Due to this he ended our relationship in September since he couldn’t see us being successful doing long distance or me moving to be with him since I am still in community college. We met when I was in HS and he was in our hometown on winter break in sophomore year of college. He was my first in every sense of the word, and recently I’ve been feeling really down thinking that I won’t have time to find another serious relationship, nor will that person ever be able to match up to him, dooming any future relationship. I’m transferring to another school next September so I know I do have opportunity, but only have 2 years to find someone in isolated college world before I have to deal with “real life" where its even harder to find someone. What should my next step be?
TL;DR broke up with amazing boyfriend over extended distance and doubt I'll have time to find someone else in my early 20s, and even if I do I might fall into comparing the new guy to my ex and don't know how to solve this.
