I also want to be able to move wherever my career (once I graduate in a few years) takes me without any hindrances.
I believe that if we're truly ment to be together, it will find a way.
So basically, I?ve decided to break up with her. I love her very much and don?t want to hurt her, but I feel like this is something I have to do.
Am I right in deciding this? How should I go about doing so, as to bring as little hurt to each other?...

It has to suck big-time that you feel you must break up with her, but you're the only one who can know for sure what's best for you at this point concerning this issue. As for myself, if I were in your shoes I'd have given it a hell of a lot more thought before making a decision as to whether I'd break up or not because I'm a
"one strike, you're out" guy and I don't believe in getting back with someone if the relationship didn't work out in the first place to begin with.
I totally understand and respect your desire to experience other women before you get married so you don't get stuck wondering what else is out there and if you've missed out on something... However you must understand that while you're experiencing other women you'll probably end up developing habits that may become a hindrance if you ever do get back with that one woman you were talking about (or even if you end up marrying someone else).
