This is currently happening. Long story not short, my parents moved to the south from Indiana (both U.S.A.) for my dad’s new job. They need help with my brother, keeping up the house, they miss me, it would be cheaper all around, I could attend graduate school down there and have a “base/supply depot” so to speak. We are all a very close family. My girlfriend, who we will call J, who is a junior and I’m a senior, both in college, (3rdvs 4thyear), knows I’m moving so that’s not the issue. However, I’m going to be taking an EMT course, Spanish med course, and applying for a hospital job, a fire cadet position, and applying for physician assistant schools all over the summer, so me moving has been set in stone. Got carried away with the backstory. J knows I’m moving, and I had told her about all the stuff I’m doing this summer, however it apparently didn’t register that “yes, that is this summer, as in, less than 2 months”. She found out today that I won’t be here for her birthday mid-summer, and guys… you should have seen her face drop when she found out. As such, I am moving early May, 2 days after graduation. As far as I know, she is thinking like late May or even early June. I have been pushing to hang out a lot more, which doesn’t take convincing as we both love each other, so we’ve been with each other almost every day for 6+ hours, she’s sleeping at my place every night, we workout together, we see each other before a few of our classes, dates galore, etc. She already secured a job in the same town I will be living after she graduates in a year, we will be together after a year but… a year is a long time and flying to see each other isn’t cheap. So, AITA for not knowing how to tell her that I’m moving so soon? I already [posted](https://www.reddit.com/r/Advice/comments/b26nps/how_do_i_tell_my_girlfriend_i_will_be_moving_1000/) on r/advice for HOW to tell her. But can you confirm my theory here?
