Wow...it's nice to know that I'm not the only one in this situation. I too have had many "boyfriends" (some more serious than others...and almost married one of them...thank goodness I saw the light). Anyway, I know exactly how you feel, because I'm dealing with the exact same thing.
In my situation, I don't know that we are going to get married anytime in the near future. Regardless of that, I've decided to make the move. I've had countless people say tell me to wait until I have a ring on my finger, but having a "ring" and being married doesn't mean that it's going to work anymore than it would if I don't have the ring prior to going. So yes, I'm going to make the move...and believe me when I tell you that I'm nervous! Not because of him, but mainly because of where we're going. I'll be a country girl living in a big city.
The one thing that I think is going to make the transition easier for me is that as much as I love him and want us to be together, I'm not going up there right away. For my own personal security I'm going to take my time. I need to have a job in place before making the move. In the event that we don't work out, I need to KNOW that I can stand on my own and survive in that city without having to move back home with my head hanging low.
So my only advice to you is to follow your heart and be prepared for the good that can come from relocating as well as the bad. Trust me, I've weighed the pros and cons...and I'm still planning to make the move. Good luck with whatever you decide to do.
