I'm too nice guy to say nothing and make her hopes of 'us' being long term, then suddenly disappear in September. I'd rather tell her now that this may not be long term. Yesterday we were laying in bed and talking about random things. I told her - very subtly - that Manila's traffic and lack of nature are driving me insane and that I wanna "see other cities of the Philippines". When she said "We could go to X", I interrupted her: "No, I don't mean like a holiday, I can't afford that", she asked "You wanna
live there?!" and I said maybe.
She cried. Not like putting on a show, she was trying to hide it behind the pillows and she hid it from me at first but I could see her body shaking and hear quiet sobs.
I left her alone in bed and grinded for 90 minutes. The rest of our Sunday together were 4 hours of conversation, tears, awkward silence and coming to terms this may not be long term. I didn't tell her my rent is expiring on 9/16 or give her any time frame. I promised we'll spend my birthday together in early September, but hers in November I said I don't know.
Today the condo owner said she would gladly extend my rent contract. I don't know what I will do...
