Options.
- Do you have to join Peace Corps? If you can give up this idea to be with him, then this is one of the options.
- Why doesn't he come with you, joining Peace Corps too? Could he give up his plans for 2 years to help you in volunteering? Therefore, this is also a good option, unless, of course, by the phrase "it's not the route he wants to take" you meant that you had already discussed it.
- You can ask him to wait for you. If he is a man of honor and can be responsible for words and promises, regardless of circumstances, then this is also an option.

I don't necessarily have to join the peace corps but it is part of my life's dream. It's something Ive worked hard to make a possibility for myself, and I know I would regret it if I didn't go. He works here full time in the medical field. Him coming with me isn't something that's been discussed yet, but maybe I'll mention it and see where that goes. My biggest issue with waiting and long distance is my need for physical affection. Physical touch is my love language and if I know there's somebody I love back home that I can't be with in that way it would hurt me constantly and deeply. Thank you for your advice this helps <3
