'My long-distance boyfriend wants to break up'

I told him that I don't wish to leave Mumbai for a foreign country. In reply, he has kept a condition in front of me: either move to US or leave him for good. I always thought he'll eventually settle down in India but after completing his studies, he found himself a job and doesn't want to return. What should I do?

Dear Teesta,
You have to take a call. Your guy has already made up his mind and he is no mood to budge. He wants to stick on in New York and you have your reasons to stay put in Mumbai. In such a scenario, it is better you call it quits. But my dear girl remember you don't know what the future holds. What if you were married to him and then he decided to migrate to a new place? Would you then have sought a divorce? Ponder on this before you take a decision.
