Admittedly, I guess it's more of an update in an attempt to both take more part in this forum, and also be able to come to to this myself so I can also look at, and read this again, to remind myself of how it's developing nicely for me right now :)

 

I talked to the SO the other day and she let me know that she has been thinking a lot lately, and has decided that she would want to move away from the US. To Europe, and continue both her studies and life there, this will be after I already spend 9 months with her over in the US, doing a course as well so I don't put my studies completely on the shelf. This is good news, as it will be far easier for me to relocate to where we were thinking, as we are also both genuinly interested in moving to said country (Holland) now, as I personally have had it as a think in the back of my head for some time. So as I don't need a permit or anything to move over there, it's an extremely good update for me :)

 

We have now managed to plan out how we will be seeing eachother for the next about year and a half before the possibility of closing the gap completely, no more having to go back anywhere for either of us. And I will be spending a lot of the time inbetween with her aswell!

 

It's a real good feeling when you manage to decide and agree to such an extent on this with that one person, and understand that it is close to being a reality.

 

I do however wonder, if anyone from the US have any experience with moving to EU? How it is compared to as I know moving to the US ain't as easy unless marriage is involved, and even though we have actually somewhat touched upon the subject, mainly she doesn't feel that she wants to get married yet. She'd like to wait a bit, but is pretty much open to it, and if I asked I'd get a yes, however she doesn't want the actual marriage to be for another few years.

 

Hence, stalling the time before I could potentially move over. But point being that if anyone happens to have any experience with it, and could potentially give me some tips that I could pass on and discuss with her and such, that would be greatly appriciated! I'll do my fair bit of looking around the web however ;)

 

However, I am just very happy now, and if anything I know it cheered me up reading how others were coming along great with their own LDRs, and it gave me hope towards my own. So knowing that it can definitely be made a reality keeps me going! :laugh:

That's great news! I'm moving to Canada in about a month to be with my boyfriend for about a year and a half and we're hoping for me to be able to get my permanent residency there before my work permit runs out. :) Keep us posted for more news.

Oh lucky you having it be so close! :) I guess it's not that far for me either, but it does feel like an eternity though! I also definitely hope you're able to get your residency! Putting myself in a situation where I'd have to go back at that point, surely wouldn't be good! ;)

 

Been quite the busy last few days, going to try to be more active on this forum now :)
