<human>: My bf (m,21) is from England. He is an exchange student at my university in the US. We met last semester and started dating about three weeks ago. It's still a very new relationship, but it seems to be working really well so far. I am excited to see where it will go. Except, of course, for one inevitable part. He is going back to England in four months. 

We talked about it. He was in a ldr once and refuses to do it again. I do think he has the right idea there. That distance is really extreme and I don't think that it could conceivably work. 

But I don't like this expiration date that looms over our relationship. I don't like knowing that all of the work that I put into this is pointless. It's not as though I am looking for my soul mate or husband, but I do take dating seriously and this is not a situation that works in my opinion. 

I like him very much. I want to date him. I want to be his girlfriend. But I do not want to be in a relationship that is destined to leave me upset. Am I wrong to stay with him in hopes that, as the end draws nearer, there may be some solution to the geographical issues that are imminent? Or should I distance myself from him so that this doesn't become something that matters too much? Or is there some middle ground on which I can stand? Help me, Reddit!

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
<bot>: my boyfriend is soon going to permanently vacate the country. I don't like the deadline placed on our new relationship. Do I need to get out while it's still easy?
