<human>: Can you succinctly summarize the text in 1-3 sentences?

My boyfriend and I have known each other for 5 years, but have been dating for the last 6 months after I got out of a 5+ year relationship.

He recently accepted a job offer 2 states away. I was willing to do long distance, but he doesn't think we have what it takes to make it, though he says he still loves me. He openly admits that he isn't the best communicator, and thinks the distance will only hurt us both, which is why he'd rather end it on a high note than drag it out into months of fighting. I do agree that he is probably right, but it stings.

So, we agreed to keep it going until he leaves. He had 3 options for start dates and picked the nearest one because "he doesn't want to be alone on his birthday" and thinks he will have met people by then. This hurts because if he chose the second start date, although he would arrive to his new town on his birthday, it would mean spending an extra two weeks with me and if chose the third, it would mean two extra months as he wouldn't be leaving until August.

In addition, he keeps saying things like "Oh, we need to do "x" this summer" full well knowing that we only have like 5 weeks left before he leaves. It just hurts every time he suggests things I know we don't have time to do and is a painful reminder.

Should I explain these two points to him? He hasn't given official notice of the start date.

Lastly, does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do when we do break up? In terms of hobbies, activites, etc? Last time I broke up with someone, it was my doing, and it was a long time coming so it didn't affect me as much. This feels worse because we both love each other, but just know it won't work.
<bot>: Boyfriend moving away in a month, wants to start work early though he can start later in the summer and keeps bringing up things he wants to do with me this summer.
