There's giving up your life to be with someone, and then there's giving up everything to be with someone (if that makes sense). Over the last few years I became involved with 2 different men. Chemistry was there and we had great times. Just when deeper feelings were beginning to show up, it was brought to my attention that I would be expected to give up the things that brought me a great deal of joy for the last 40 years: my animals, my library, my crafts, etc. One implied I would have to give that all up because he didn't have room for my "stuff". The other wanted me to give up everything to travel around the US in a van, living off the proceeds of selling things at flea markets.
It's one thing to give up my life to make a major move to be with the one I love, but it's entirely something different to be expected to give up everything I enjoy because there's no room or to live like a gypsy. Not in this lifetime!
I may have been wrong all these years, but I thought that being with the one you love was a blending of two lives, not of expecting your love to give up everything in their life to fit into a corner of yours. I'd give up my current life to be with the man I love, but I refuse to do that if it also means giving up everything I enjoy. There are limits to everything.

Thank u 4 sharing my dear,ur story touched me coz i've been through this be4 and i've learnt from it,but i'll take urs by consideration also,no i dont want him to give up the things he likes for me..im not a selfish person i never been and i'll never be..we r just thinking of a safe way that wont let any one of us lose or get hurt.It's one thing to give up my life to make a major move to be with the one I love, but it's entirely something different to be expected to give up everything I enjoy because there's no room or to live like a gypsy.

mira_1984_8: Are u ready to give up any thing to be with the one you love? (leave ur country and start from 0),do u think u might regret the life u gave up or it doesnt really matter to u if u live any where in the world as long as u r happy with him/her?
I would..I mean I have nothing to keep me here except old memories

If you are ready to make such a sacrifice, make sure he'd be willing to do the same for you. Otherwise you may end up giving up quite a bit, whereas he isn't willing to give up squat. Food for thought.

RDM59: Hi there Granny P, well I think one has to be realistic, the majority of us are here because IT didn't work out the first time or many times even. Yes we have to be very positive but wise also, as you said, there are no guarantees ( of success ).
The property could be rented out and provide an income for you overseas, so that is an investment as such.

Hello Grand dad R, I hear you, and yes agree that majority of us are in the same predicament. A few times, eish, thats a tough one,
What happened to once bitten twice shy rule?
And yes u right, their are many options, one being renting out your existing property, or just selling it, and investing the money? Both have pros and cons, I would think
Besides to be honest, its a life changing decision, so both parties would have to discuss and come to an amicable arrangement?But thats what makes falling in "Love" with the right person so much more special, as its a joint decision, and not one sided
Who knows what the future has in store for any of us, so I'm holding thumbs

I don't know. Maybe.
If there was someone I wanted badly enough.
Where I live isn't such a big deal. And I have little in the way of ties that bind here.

relocating to a strange country is not easy,sure many people here have that experience..for some the move might mean learning a foreign language,being totally dependant on the loved one,the stress of meeting a completely different culture and lifestyle..loosing connections with own family,friends and roots..
its a very complicated decision..one certanly must be prepared for some eyeopeners..
