I created a startup that has been growing for 6+ months. Just voted a top small startup in a major US city, building a respectable customer base, getting press, and we have plenty of non-zero numbers. Myself and 2 team members now. Truly love this and want to do it everyday.<p>Then last night, my partner of 9 years was given the exciting news he was accepted to medical school across the country. Great school just not in a tech hub or a place the startup can continue to grow. The startup needs to stay in the city I'm at for a while. The team, networks, mentors, local buzz, etc are all here.<p>We talked about it and are committed to making this relationship work long distance, but we also talked how the odds are not in our favor. I'm worried it will come down to a choice between his dream, mine, or ending our relationship.<p>Lots of thoughts/emotions going through my head right now, any personal anecdotes are truly appreciated.
It's hard to be in a relationship with two go-getters. I think you already know what it is that you want to do. Long distance relationships are hard, but if you are committed then it will be okay.<p>How many years are we talking here?
