    expiry date relationship

    Hi all
    let me jump right in. seeing this boy from another country who's living in this one currently. he had a girlfriend here and we started hanging out and he just dumped her a couple of weeks ago because, for once, he's a good guy, and didn't feel comfy even hanging out with me until he closed that door. now we haven't been too heavy but we've been hanging out regularly, chatting, sleepovers etc. seeing each other, and it's been really good. problem is he's going to start doing his nomad thing again soon, in anywhere from 2-4 months. he also has told me that he had an ex who he was living with in her country and he doesn't want to get stuck in a situation again where he's putting his life on hold to see someone because all he wants to do right now is travel and live.
    should i even be involved in this. i rarely like anyone and i'm having strong feelings for this guy already. my case is i always like someone whole heartedly or not at all; fall hard and fast.
    there's an expiry date on this. i have friends who have said enjoy it while you can, or maybe he will stay or want you to go with him, but i'm realistic.
    should i bail now?

    You kinda answered your own question there...If you fell for this guy so quickly and he's going to be moving soon...What else can you do then end it? Unless you can have some fun and move on with your life, i don't see it any other way.

    I will continue to see him though on a regular basis because unfortunately we have a lot of mutual friends, one of both our best friends orchestrated all this in the first place. is that the logical thing to do though? because i will have a good time with him while he is here. then i'd have to go out of my way to avoid him....

    okay
    should i talk to him about anything?
    since we actually got together and he officially got rid of that other girl etc. we haven't actually talked about what it is that we're doing or what it is, or when exactly he leaves, and i am avoiding any convo along those lines entirely. if it comes up, that he is traveling i nonchalantly say something like ya, i can't wait to leave too, because i am actually traveling as well in the winter sometime, but i avoid having any talk about expiry. wise or no?
    also, wouldn't that just end it right there if we did?
