There’s no right or wrong answer here. If you decide to go ahead with it, there will be lonely times, for sure, but if you feel strongly about the person, it may be worthwhile. Some questions to ask yourself: How much do I want to be in a relationship with this person? Could we find a way to end up living in the same geographic area, and if so, how soon? How willing are we both to give it a try, and end the relationship if long-distance doesn’t work? Best to you, whatever you decide.
