Hi everyone,
I'm new here... just wanted to reach out to those who have closed the distance and any advice they could give me. My boyfriend and I have been together for a year. We have both discussed in length about what we want in our future. We discussed Marriage, Kids, Finances etc to ensure we were on the same page. I own my home in Canada and my BF is in the middle of purchasing his in the US. We are both educated in fairly good professions... but in his City it's pretty hard to purchase a house at the moment. He anticipates that he will be able to buy something in early 2014... He has told me he doesn't feel right having me move there until he can take care of me and I have a home to live in. I appreciate that... he took a hit when the economy started to fail and because of that has moved back in with his parents in order to save up for a house.
There are days (like today) that I'd just wish it was around the corner. But in reality, it's probably a year out from now... just wanted to see if I should be doing anything to prepare for a move? The only contingency is the house. We see each other fairly often (at least one, usually twice a month)... we said we'd be married when I move (Fiance Visa etc). I am such a planner, that I just need to be aware of what needs to be done in the next 6 months, instead of waiting until an offer was finally accepted and having to start then and have the process go on for a long time.
Thanks in advance!
