Will she stay?

I'm in my mid-forties, I had not been lucky when it comes to relationships, it's not that I’m some repressed middle-aged who’s never been on a relationship before, don't get me wrong. In fact, I have been on a couple of healthy relationships in the past, but for some reason they never worked out.

For quite a while, after breaking up with my former partner, I know it sounds sentimental, but I started to lose faith in love because I really thought…That’s it, she’s the one. Well… I guess I was mistaken.

In consequence of that, this friend of mine advised me to take this tour to Russia, as a way of relaxing and having a good time, because he said that I’d meet beautiful women and have fun. At first, I can’t den I was doubtful about it, but after thinking it over I made up my mind; therefore, with nothing to lose (except for a couple of bucks) I went on the tour and indeed I met this gorgeous, smart and sincere gal, we just simply hit it off after meeting each other, we had the best time together while I was in Russia, and ever since I came back to the States we kept in touch almost every day by phone, chat, and e-mails.

We’re on a one-year relationship now and I am very serious with her, I know it's hard to have long distance relationship, the fact that not being close one to the other is almost unbearable but we are coming through it.

Over the past year, I went back to visit her on three occasions and we also have talked about her moving to the States and she seems ok with it.

Lately, I have been thinking about popping the question once she moves over, of course she doesn’t know about it.

But here are my concerns:

Do you think I am rushing things? Or should I just go for it and propose?

I know it‘s hard to say, but do you think it will work. You know, my being American and her being Russian? Or is it that you think she will have a hard time adapting to America and she’ll just feel like going back to Russia because of homesickness or any other reason.

I would really appreciate to shed some light on this matter.

Thanks

well, don't know how long ago did you left this post. I have to tell you something though. That would be better, from my point of vew, if you propose her in Russia. So, IT will be a reason for her to move to USA. She will know that you will be her man in US. Otherwise, especially if she is good looking, she might go with some other dude - you know, if she would move here just on a turns of gf, she might look around and find someone else! good luck!
