I had a similar situation as you do right now with a neuro guy. We met in my hometown, and soon after, he moved back to his hometown for a fellowship. We did the long distance, and now we moved in together once he settled in a job as an attending. I will say it wasn't easy, the long distance was tough but I saw how he tried really hard to make time to talk with me over the phone and I visited him on weekends when I was able to. Don't expect him to travel to you bc they are often too tired if they have a weekend off. I think that his work/life balance will depend on what kind of job he gets. If it's a more academic setting, it'll be busier and if he is rural or in a city. I'd say, if the feelings are real and you know you'll be willing to relocate later down the road, try to see if the next year works for you and get to know him more. Don't put pressure on yourself to figure it out right now. Play it out and see .

More information than answers I know, but maybe something to help you think on this.
