I know, it's been done. Thank you to anyone who lets me know that it's already been done. And I also understand how ridiculous this is. Thanks in advance for pointing that out too. I've always lived in the city. Between parents, I've lived in Providence, Rhode Island and NYC, New York. I've been talking to (and even took a trip out to see), an amazing girl that I met on a vacation. She's been asking if I wanted to move out to where she is, and I'm considering it. The thing is... she lives in some DEEP country. I mean, they make horror movies set in this kind of place. I don't know if I can handle that So, anybody have any advice?
petalbabe: Well, that shows how flexible you are. Or not.
Flexibility has nothing to do with it. I have moved many, many times in my life. I love where I am. This is where I want to be. If this keeps me from finding someone to share my life, so be it. I will live alone.

yeah its nothing to do with being flexable,.. everyone has diffrent circumstance and reasons why they wouldnt or couldnt move.... We have to do what is right for us
I guess it depends on our current situation. For me, I worked hard to get set up with land and a home that I built myself. It took years to do it, but I would hate to start all over again. If I was asked if I would relocate before I bought this place, I would say yes in a second. But now, too much is at stake for me and some others who have land and a home they worked so hard to get. I would never also ask a woman to take me in, I think it should always be the man that should try to have everything established before settling down or at least have his own place the woman can move into instead. However, with so many independent women out there, its hard for some of them to give up what they worked so hard for as well. So there is that medium of compromise I guess in which will be willing to give up what they have to basically start over somewhere else. Its a hard choice in those situations.
If I was renting, no problem. Then there is that part of everyone's life such as their good job, family and or friends they would move away from and some women have good friends they want to keep around, since moving means also making new friends, but finding a job is another story. Some its easy to do that, others its not. It all depends on the person and their situation.
If the job sucks, you are renting, have no close friends and just a lot of off and on friends, then it would be easier if you have a solid group of friends a good job and if you owned your home.

Being close to a girl that you may have a future with isn't a bad thing, but changing lifestyles could be a culture shock , it's hard to make an adjustment from city to country living and vice versa, I have lived in both and can adapt if need be but for someone such as yourself who has had no experience with a rural type of life style I think would find it difficult. But maybe she would be worth giving it a try, you can always go back if it doesn't work out.Good Luck
For me, I'd be somewhat starting over. I have a townhouse in Rhode Island that I've been living in (Renting) for about a year now, but I work from my home office. I wouldn't know anyone besides her in the area. It's definitely a tough choice. The longest amount of time I've spent in the country was a 7 day stint that I was there with her. Her family is nice and well respected in the community, and they like me which is a huge plus. I'm 90% sure I could adapt, but I'm not sure if that risk is worth giving up the living space I have here.

Yeah, in the horror movies, the good guy is usually totally unprepared. So, you would need to bring a cell phone, a Chiltons manual, some extra gas, lots of warm clothes, maybe a snow-mobile hidden out back, a few army rations, a handgun and silver bullets, a necronomicon, an iron cross, werewolf restraints and a rain poncho. Or you could just have her come live with you in the big city.
i am considering this my self i am talking to a women who lives over seas and will be seeineg her in dec we have been tallking openly i dont want her having to leave her family and friends for me i have nothing holding me back my x got what she wanted my so al i do is pay child support

dont let the negative people have an influence in your life
you are your own boss you decide if you love her see your self being with her met her family and they like you do it
Do not move right away for someone you hardly know! Spend at least a month holidays at her place. Can't she come to your place? May be you can both move to a "in between" place?
Yes I would, But she chose to live here and I'm just blessed that I have the love of my life and my future wife. Damn it sounds good to say that god bless DonDon.

If you care, you try, go back for another visit, and spend more time before you decide. What is relocating if you care about the person.... and I mean really care.
Ask yourself if you could stand to be "anywhere" she is. If you answer is a definite yes then you will probably be very happy In the "deep country".
I am relocating 738 miles from the place I was born. Why? because I rather be with him in Georgia, than without him in DC.
Olsojente: So would you move to the other side of Gozo for love?? I wouldn't move across the country, I'd end up in Bergen, and it just rains too much there... So for me it's a No!
I'd have to think about it.........I really love the villa and wouldn't want to ever get rid of it; maybe I could move to the other side of Gozo just three or four days per week and she could come here the other three/four days.
I love a woman who can compromise - as long as I get my own way in bed.

How far would it be? A 15 mins drive?? Sounds do-able...
It's been done I know... Would you move across the country to continue a long distance relationship?
Nah, if she moved near me I'd just stay where I was. Continuing a long distance relationship isn't that important. Close relationships have their advantages too.

I had moved out of the country to be with someone long ago.I left everything my home my family everything. THe problem wastn that we didnt love eachother it was all the rules from one country to another after two years of the hell they put us through I had to say enough was enough. So please check out all laws before you devote to anything like that. It is a heart breaker. Starr
