Moving 31 hours away

Ladies! I need your advice! My boyfriend is in the navy and stationed 31 hours away from my home town. He wants me to move to be with him. We haven’t been together long but I’ve known him and been close to him for 7 years. I know my family is going to freak out. I’m slightly nervous. I feel like this is a big step in the right direction for me but there’s still a thought like what if this doesn’t work out? I would’ve sold all of my belongings, gave up my apartment and everything else so if it doesn’t work I’m gonna be back home with absolutely nothing. Anyone have any advice ether way? 😩
