Put it to you this way: if you did stop seeing your friend and he asked you why, imagine yourself saying,
"Well, you aren't going to be around next year and I need to build my relationships with friends who can support me in the long-term. You can't do that, so I can't afford to see you anymore. I've got to think about my future."
What would he think of you for saying that?

well stated and shines the light on the reality of the choice.
