I agree with jadzea that it could quite well work for you two but it's just up to the level of commitment you have to this relationship because if you are commited you'll be patient for him. after reading more of what you said in your second post, it sounds like it's mostly a good relationship you have and it sounds like you do care for him a lot so maybe it's worth it. I still think his priorities are not where I would want them to be in a relationship, but maybe that will work out in time or you'll be able to spend time going with him more later. I hope that's the case. My only gripe at this point really is his "open-ended" ideology about his dreams. I still think he sounds pretty non-commital in that he is not even at least willing to commit to whether his vacation will end in one month or not. Its like he wants to keep his options open and you're still second on his list. But if you're ok with that or can figure out how to deal with that then yes it can work out.
