Is it a bad idea to move to a different area (far) just for love?

I don’t see anything wrong with moving across the country if you love someone. My boyfriend told me that it’s not a good idea and that I should find another reason to want to move where he is and not JUST BECAUSE of him. I don’t get it, what’s so bad about it? I can’t just make up a reason to want to move.

I asked him, “What if you were active duty in the Army and then I’d have to move because you’re in the military…there’d be no other reason.” His reply was that it wouldn’t be a good idea because I’d be by myself all the time when he’s deployed if he’s the only reason I moved.

I’m still confused so if someone thinks they understand what he’s talking about fill me in LOL I should just say “Hey, I don’t have any other reason other than you to move. So we’re gonna be long distance forever or break up now” haha…
