Hubby and I were separated by 2 1/2 hours while we were dating and then engaged while he lived here in town and I was at college. I was home for a summer in there but it lasted about 1 1/2 years. It was murder on the phone bills, but thank goodness for e-mail. It was worth it. It actually helped each of us find friends who would be supportive and we could confide in so that we weren't too completely dependant on each other. We've learned that being TOTALLY dependant on each other for companionship can be strenuous. You need other outlets and someone who can be a sounding board sometimes when things get edgy between you two.
Try to look at this as something to strengthen and test your relationship. You sound like you really care about him but you are afraid to be "left behind". Don't worry about who he's meeting or what he doing besides wanting to know how he is. He will let you know the rest. Maybe the wait won't be as long as you expect either.
I hope the job works out well for him. Good Luck to you both.
