Should I feel bad/sad for taking a break from my relationship?

I 20 year old male, recently enrolled myself into the job corps program. For those who don’t know job corps is just a free trade school where I learn a trade and get my high school diploma. I live in Columbia Missouri but the campus is in St. Louis so I had to move here and will be staying here for about a year. After that the program will pay for me to fly to Kentucky to lean how to install solar power, that will take about another year.

I was in a relation ship with a 23 year old male we will call him john. About a month of staying on campus me and John realized how hard it was staying in contact. My phone a while ago had taken some water damage, and due to that the volume of people on calls fluctuate making it so I can’t hear them properly.

On top of that John was renting a house his aunt owned it was $500 for rent a person so me and John were paying $1000 a month together and his cousin, gabe who was also living there was paying $500. After I moved to St. Louis John figured he would only be paying 500 but his aunt informed him he would have to cover the full 1000 himself. John had been going through a lot recently and called me to let me know his situation. He told me everything he was going through and eventually told me “I dont think it’s healthy to miss you this much.” we both settled on the idea that maybe we should just take a break from being together until I get out of job corps and we both get on our feet.

John was crying quite a bit during the phone call but I wasn’t, and I still havnt. We were together since I turned 18, and I guess I’m not sad. Don’t get me wrong ot sucks I love John but part of me is happy to just be single, even tho I’m not there to talk to him about his situation tell him I love him or anything. It sounds stupid but I guess my question is should I feel sad? I love him and he’s going through a lot is. it bad that I don’t feel sad that we are broken up? I just feel happy to be working on my own future here and working out at the gym here. Am I a bad person for just being happy I’m by myself even through Hes going through a lot?
