So I got my invitation to serve in Tanzania as a science teacher a few days ago and would be leaving in July. This would be an amazing experience and opportunity, but the only issue is that I would be leaving the love of my life for the two years I'd be gone. We've been best friends for two years and over the past 6 months or so we started to become more than just friends and started dating about a month ago. She says she will support me with whichever decision I make (go or not go), so I have a couple questions for people:

1) if anyone was in this situation, did you choose love over the peace corps? if so, did you regret your decision?

2)if you went and stayed together, did it work out? how were you able to keep in touch?

I know this is a once in a lifetime opportunity, but I can't help but think that I would be choosing between the peace corps and my life with her. She says she'd try her best to wait for me, but that a lot can happen in two years. Just not sure if the risk of losing her outweighs me going to the peace corps. I've never been happier and more in love with anyone in my life, and if just the thought of being away from her with questionable means of communication bums me out and makes me depressed, not sure what it'd be like when I'd actually be in country. People say it's crazy to not go for love, but I think it's crazy for me to leave after I've finally found happiness and love after being left numerous times before. Honestly torn right down the middle about this decision
