Should I (16 F) get into a LDR (17M)?

so, I had a boyfriend, we are both young (me 16 he’s 17) and met each other around a month and a half or two months ago, he is genuinely a great guy and I could’ve fallen for him, the thing is, a week ago (and 2 weeks into our relationship) he found out his family wanted to go back to his country. That’s a 6 hour difference from where we currently live and tbh i don’t really like long distance relationships and he said he didn’t either, however that’s all we discussed when “breaking up”. We stayed as friends and plan on meet up a last time before he leaves, however I’m not sure if asking him to try a long distance relationship, he plans on coming back when he turns 18 next year since he wants to stay here and study what he likes but I really don’t know if asking for a long distance relationship, it probably won’t work but we can try yk?
