Like I said before, it may be more important to him, because it represents a concrete commitment.

Packing up and moving, and giving up a lot, is a huge gesture, but in the end you're still able to make a pretty clean break. To him it's not a matter of priorities, it's a matter of being certain that you are as commited as you say you are, and what you see as trying not to complicate things, he more than likely sees as you trying to keep yourself from being "Tied down".
