I have been talking with a close friend about my hopes, dreams, and plans for the future and it has led me to wonder if my current relationship is one that will grow, change, and evolve with the direction I want to go. I am not sure how to start this type of conversation and am worried that while he loves who I am, he might not love who I will become. Some might say it is too soon for me to be thinking or worrying about this, but there are several reasons for me to wonder how much time I might have with him; hence my thinking about the future. I don't want to give up anything that might lead to regrets down the road, but worry if I can have a committed relationship and the career that I have always wanted. I know I need to talk to him a.s.a.p., but I am still trying to collect my thoughts and considering how to broach the subject. My desire to move and be on my own has really been on my mind lately, especially the more I hear about friends wanting or planning on moving away. I feel like now is the best time for me to move, travel, or try to make it somewhere on my own. Life is short and for him, it might be over way too soon. I hate not knowing what to do or questioning my decisions and choices. Unfortunately, it is a part of human nature to second guess yourself.
