Hi Tina,
Maybe he has a fear of being lonely or that if he isn't in a relationship he's a loser. He is definitely stuck in a pattern and therapy might help get him unstuck.
Sounds like he needs some tough love: maybe when he starts talking about relocating again you can remind him of the other times and ask him what went wrong before and why does he think this time will be different? Maybe he honestly doesn't see the pattern in his behavior, he just thinks he's in love and isn't thinking with his head.
Good luck.
