Jeff Daniels is coming back to TV, after his
stage workas Atticus Finch in “To Kill a Mocking-
bird.” After “The Newsroom,” “Godless,” and “The
Looming Tower,” he wants more.
The actor, who won Emmys for “The News-
room” and “Godless,” will star in “Rust.” Show-
time has given the project, based on the novel
“American Rust” by Philipp Meyer, a straight-to-
series orderafter USA let go of it. In the family
drama,Danielswill play a compromisedpolice
chief in southwest Pennsylvania.
The show will be written and executivepro-
ducedby Dan Futterman,who was nominated
for an Oscarfor his “Capote”and “Foxcatcher”
screenplay work. Futterman, knownas an actor
in “The Birdcage” and “Judging Amy,” also wrote
for “In Treatment” and “The Looming Tower.” He
has a local connection: He’s married to Anya Ep-
stein, also a writer-producer, who grew up in
these here parts.
Q.My boyfriend and I have been together for
about 3½ years. We started dating our se-
nior year of college and have been long-dis-
tance ever since we graduated, because I re-
located to a different city for a job. We see
each other about once a month, and he is se-
riously the best. I love him and his family,
and everyone in my life thinks he’s great,
too.IcandefinitelyseehimbeingtheguyI
marry, and I would be really happy with that
outcome.
My problem is that the long-distance re-
lationship is getting to me. It’s been over two
years now and I am exhausted from the
plane rides, the FaceTime calls, and the fact
that we only ever see each other one week-
end a month. We’ve always talked about
closing the gap and want it to happen, but
it’s just not there yet. He’s tried to get trans-
ferred to someoffices up here, but nothing
has panned out for him.
I feel like the logical next step would be
for me to move to where he is, but I’m wor-
ried I won’t be able to find a job in the field
that I’m working in right now, which is why
I moved away to begin with. Additionally, I
live close to my family right now and have a
lot of friends. I do love the city that he lives
in, so I wouldn’t be completely unhappy
there, but I’m worried about what I’m giving
up. I just don’t know if it’s a smart decision
for me to give up everything and move for a
boy. I feel like I’d be sacrificing so much just
for this relationship, but at the same time I
want this relationship to continue. I’m wor-
ried that if we stay long-distance for too
much longer, I’m going to get tired and frus-
trated of it all and lose this perfect guy. Do I
move for love or stay put and focus on what
I have right now?
LONELY
A.Perhaps you can start by asking people to
help you find job leadsin his city. You don’t
have to move without any plan in place. It’s
possible you can line up some ideas for work
before you get there.
You can also think a little about friend-
ship. When you’re in his city, do you see any-
one else? Maybe you can take somevacation
days, extend the trip, and spend time with
others — or even wander around on your
own. Remind yourself that you can build a
larger community after you move.
Relocating would be a risk, of course. You
might pick up and leave, and then wish you
hadn’t. There’s no way to know until you
take the leap.But it sounds like you want to
— or wanthimto (can he try again?). Re-
gardless, the more important pointin you’re
letter is that you’re ready to see if this rela-
tionship could be your future.
I wouldn’t see this as “giving up every-
thing and moving for a boy.” That’s not fair.
The two of you are working together to take
the next step in your relationship. There’s no
shame in that.
MEREDITH
READERSRESPOND:
You should BOTH be looking for jobs in
each other’s city. If nothing pans out after a
few months, someone has to be willing to
take the leap.Some things to consider: who
makesmore$$,doessomeonehavean
apartmentthat can accommodate both of
you? Big picture, which city makes the most
sense for you guys?
BOSTONSWEETS21
- Stop calling him a “boy,” especially if
you have already sized him up for a husband
suit. - Look for and find a job before you
move to be with him. - While he isn’t perfect (don’t put that
onus on anyone; it’s unfair and will only lead
to disappointment later), if he is as great as
you say, the sacrifice of moving from where
you are should be worth it.
CRUCIFIEDZEOFF
You should both have a competition to be
the first to find a job in the other’s city.
HARRISBLACKWOODSTONE
Maybe they could both try to find jobs in
another city and move there together. Then
they’d be on a level playing field and they’d
both be making an equal commitment to the
relationship.
