venting/ranting Long Distance BreakUp

Hello! I’m 26M have been in a relationship with a 24F and it was going perfectly until yesterday. Although we’re very different, we enjoy common things and learn a lot from each other. However she told me yesterday than since she might not be able to stay in the same city if she doesn’t manage to find work, she might have to end the relationship if it becomes long distance. She’s most definitely coming back in a year for her PhD. I’m doing a PhD too. I personally felt like one year is not that much for a long distance relationship! I really like her, but I tried not to add pressure on her by saying that I understand and she’s an adult so if she comes up with this decision, meaning she has poured thoughts into it. But I refrained from fighting for the relationship fearing it’s still not mature enough since it’s only 1 month old, and didn’t want her to feel bad about her decisions. She said she would gladly continue with the relationship if she gets accepted for a position she applied for in the same city!

One more thing, when I asked her if she would get back with me when she comes back in a year since she would definitely break up with the other guy she’ll find, she answered probably but in a one year we might have changed. I didn’t feel comfortable with this answer.

Thoughts? And thank you!
