Yes after the 2 years everything would go back to the way it is and I would be making a lot more money than I am now.
You kinda hit the nail on the head about him not wanting to be away from me. He can't be away from me. At all. How do I handle it from that route now?
You have to find out a compromise. Since he has "abandonment" issues. You can attempt to try to fulfill them, but like I said that might spread you thin to keep him entertained, with school work and long hours on the week end. You might burn out. But hey I don't know you, maybe that's something you can easily handle.
I would ask him just how much attention from you is enough to get you guys through 2 years. If its an insecurity of his, then you just need to reassure him that you aren't trying to abandon him. If you can get him to the point that he is reassured then I think it can be manageable. It's his fear that is causing him to drag his feet with your plan. I bet you can get him to move into the house if you address his insecurity. How you go about that, I'm not really sure.
