Him asking for quits can be interpreted two ways:
1. He is the logical sort of person who sees things in black and white. Therefore, he reasons that you love each other but the distance in between is big, and ultimately you need to build new lives.
2. it is a tester for him to find out just how much you value the relationship. If you hold on, and he sees that his love life comes first and he can relocate to where you are now.
As much as this may sound not poetic, I suggest give yourself a time frame and discuss it with him. Something like, if we can't do this by six months then lets free each other.
