Hi, Morgie!
I would, but it would be a difficult decision. I also believe that both parties need to be open to that possibility (if only one is, that wouldn't work, in my view).
I think you do it because being with the person is your highest, or one of your highest, priorities. You have to make a little more effort to keep contact with your family and friends, but I think it is doable.

sasseez: I would not be able to leave my children behind, i brought them for the most part up on my own and i have already lost my 19 yr old daughter to a car crash so there,s no way i could leave my sons behind.
I have no ties! ... I lost my husband to cancer 2 years ago! my only 2 sons were both lost in seperate r.t.a´s a few years ago now! .....
So! ..when i DO meet the right guy who will hopefully be with me for the rest of my `traumatic´life! I would move to another `planet´ just to be happy again!!

tainogirl: It is wonderful that you have found an understanding man that is already half the battle won. Have you tried the program SKYPE? I have tried it and it's pretty good, the other person sounds as though they are in the same room as you. That way you can chat to your kids everyday if you want. It does not matter how big our children get we are always on call as Mommy. Your kids are very lucky to have a mom that loves and misses them so much.
When they were small and got hurt it was easy to make things right again. It really hit me when my Grandaughter was stillborn and my son was crying to me on the phone and i could not be there.I started this thread not to say i regret it, but just not sure i realized how hard it can be and wanted others to be aware how hard it can be.
Sorry if i rambled on

morgan5: If the person you met here lives in a different country, you talk for a while, then you meet, everything is all you dreamed it would be.
Would you up sticks and move to another country?
How would you cope with leaving family/job/friends?
How would decide which one should re locate?
Just i have done it, i am happy with my life, but i miss my family so much, and its not always that easy to visit because of money.
Do we really think about everything when we make this kind of decision?

You must put your life in a balance......I know you miss your family, but also you must think who will be with you at the end of your life, ( i mean your man) .

I know it has been a sacrifice but look at it this way you have found someone who loves you and I am sure your kids know how much you love them. That is the important thing. You are a good mother and you have given all of us who might face this dilema one day a lot to think about. Thank you.------ This thread is Archived ------
I'm not sure I could be able to leave my family and go to another country. I suppose it wouldn't be too bad if I could afford making the trips when I wanted, or had to.

that really was the purpose using what i find hardest as an example, not saying i regret it.It is very easy to get carried along with the idea of being so much in love especially on the internet, and loose touch with the realities of it.
Was hoping to provoke a discussion around that

Morgan, When I moved in with Nick it was my decision. My kids were against it right from the beginning for several reasone that I won't go into. I am glad to read you have found someone who supports you on this particular issue. I was only 65 miles away from my kids and grand-kids and it hurt like crazy.
I did not take the time to think things through. When I meet the guy I will be spending the rest of my life with, we will have some conversations on this topic and hope we can come to a mutual understanding.

drivenbysound: Let me ask you this..If someone moved on your behalf and gave up everything to move to a new country to be with you..and let's say it wasn't really working for you after a while. Would you..
A)Feel guilty about what they gave up and try to help them re-establish themselves(and wondering what's going to happen to them)
B)Take the attiude that it's not really your fault (you both gave it a chance, but he/she has to go)
C)Other

You make some VERY valid points here. I know that I would never consider leaving the country - my children, grandchildren, siblings and mother are much more important to me and very integral parts of my life. I can't imagine ever leaving them and not being able to see them at holidays and special events. That's why I wouldn't even consider more than a simple friendship with someone in another country. That would be established at the beginning of any communication. And I sure wouldn't want the responsibility of another person leaving their homes, family, job, friends and security to risk on a relationship that may or may not work - I don't want that guilt to carry around -- but good luck to those of you who have ventured into this. To each his/her own -- I just know it's not for me.

Hi Morgan,
first off, congrats on being so brave to make that decision. I admire you all guys who did it - you, MF, Ambrose, KMD. I don't think I'd ever be able to.
But it's never possible to really think of everything, IMO. And no need for thinking of everything.
One thing tou knew for sure -
you knew you'd miss your family, right? And I am sorry you feel sad missing them.
It can be really tough and intense at times. ------ This thread is Archived ------
I don't won't to relocate, I want to be near my grown children and new grandbabies for now. If I fall in love I might relocate within my country.

If a couple doesn't talk about this and the compromises that must be made -- then it's doomed I think - JMO. I would think that the one who gave up everything would become so sad and maybe have constant thoughts of what's back home to the point that it would eventually tear down the relationship. Let's face it - the one that moves - is giving up EVERYTHING -- the one who hosts - gives up NOTHING.
Domestic flights fares are much more reasonable than international rates. Obtaining the legal documents of emigration can be costly and time consuming. Getting a job as a foreigner in another country can be difficult at best. It's just more than I'm willing to sacrifice. JMO - others may have found happiness and contentment with it -- I know myself and I wouldn't be happy -- and isn't that the ultimate goal?
