Things just keep getting more and more complicated.

Hi guys!
This is my first post on here. I am in need of some serious advice.
I'll begin with the shortest version I can give and add details if they are needed.

Ok I'm on exchange in a foreign country. Girl meet boy, girl and boy start out as FWB, then they realise they really enjoy each others company. They make it exclusive, become gf/bf.
Time goes on, my four months in the country was nearing an end and I didn't want to go home (for a whole bunch of reasons, although enjoying his company was apart of it). I didn't tell him for a while about my decision to stay until August, however when I did he reacted quite well, and actually told me he loved me! Our relationship is escalating quickly.
The thing is I really enjoy being with him, he is great. There are two things bothering me, one it is eventually going to end right? I know I would not survive a long distance relationship and he has his life plans and I have mine. The second thing is I know I love him but I think maybe not as much as he loves me. Last year I got out of a 3 year relationship, him, i am his first actual girlfriend since he was 15 (we are in our low twenties), so how not only am I trying my best to detach myself, I dont know if he fully understands the concept of love?
Summary; Fallen in love on exchange, which is not only completely different to what I do back home, but im in a foreign country. How do I handle this?
So far my solution is just have fun and enjoy it and it ends when it ends but deep down I dont want it to.

Just talk to him about it and be honest. He may be feeling the same way.

And what if talking is not my strong point, and its not his either. I think im getting the feeling he just wants to enjoy it while he can.

You should try to dicuss it. I think you should enjoy it while you can. You may have to just cross that bridge when you guys come to it.

You both can either enjoy it while it lasts, or just go separate ways. It's up to you. Talk about it openly and make sure that you both understand the implications and what's going to happen when you will be far apart.
