Need to just get something off of my chest

My boyfriend and I have been dating for awhile, since January, but he didn't know I had plans to move across the country (Texas to California) over the summer. It was an accidental fall in love sort of thing and ironic too, I was single for almost 2 years about to move then I meet him. I already canceled my plans to move out there, but the deal was so sweet. I'd have been living at my aunt and uncle's house with no rent and getting my school paid for me with a car and a job waiting for me. I had nothing holding me back in Texas. Before I made my decision I slightly brought it up and he was hesitant, didn't like the idea of it. He said to just stay with him awhile longer and after he finished law school we could move out there, but the opportunity is gone now. My entire family live out there, and were very disappointed when I had to break the news. And now living in Texas I have to pay my own rent and afford my own classes to go to. Everyone says I'm dumb for staying just for a guy I've barely been dating, but our relationship is too close. I couldn't imagine myself with anyone else, and I didn't see myself breaking up with him. I just hope I made the right decision.
