<human>: Background information: Been in a relationship for 11 years, we are in our mid twenties. Our relationship has been good, there has been talk of marriage and we do want to be together..  
  
  
I don't really know how to start, my boyfriend just finished his BA degree and he's got an offer to teach English overseas. Possibly for a year. I can't go with him, I'm trying to find a job at the moment that relates to my degree (Sciences). I know he wants to go, he's always wanted to go to Japan, he loves Anime, the culture, etc. I don't want him to stay because of me, I don't want him to regret this decision.. but at the same time, I don't want him to leave. I do have to mention that **by no means does he want to end the relationship** but it really does.. complicate things. We both want to be together which is what I'm trying to say. I told him that he should follow what he wants to do and we would make it work, he also wants to make it work..  
  
  
I can't help but cry, I always seem to think the worst, that he'll change his mind about our relationship halfway around the world or something. Am I wrong in worrying about his safety too? I don't know how I'm supposed to feel, I don't want to force him to stay for me. He said if I went with him, it would be the easiest decision but I just simply cannot do that..  
  
  
I'm so torn about this, I don't know how I'm supposed to deal with this. I am supposed to feel sad right? I just don't know what to do.

Summarize the given text in a few sentences.
<bot>: boyfriend of 11 years wants to go to Japan to teach English for possibly a year, don't know how I'm supposed to deal with this, we don't want to end the relationship
