My boyfriend of 6 months isnt happy about the idea, I know it sounds weird and you probs think hes being selfish by disagreeing, but all I can say is, young and in love, and I know at my age you might say I havnt found love, just a crush, you dont know what love is yet, but it really is, I dont want to leave him. So please if you have any advice on the matter please let me know, thanks a bunch, really does mean a lotStacey, - x

Well weve known each other for about a year and a half now, so yeah knew him before i moved back over, and he's been here all his life, and doesnt travel abroad much.
Yup =/ solid as a rock.
and yeah, i still keep in touch via Msn, but the convo's normally cut down to 'hi, how r ya' then it ends.
And well the longest ive ever been in one country is around 3 - 4 years, but i have to say this is the shortest ive stayed in the one place, but weve moved here about 3-4 times between the last country and the next, and really, its just home to me, England is my home, where i was born, where i have the majority of friends, and i have family around me, just hard to leave if ya get me drift.
need any more info please let me know,
talk soon

As I’m sure you know, this move is a huge deal and affects a lot of aspects of your life (flips it upside down, if you will). I could tell you about my experiences but some more information would help so that I don’t digress too much :-)
Since you two have been dating for as long as you’ve been in the UK, did you know him before you moved here?
Has your bf always lived here or has he moved around as well?
Are the plans to move set in stone?
Do you keep in touch with friends from past postings?
Is this the longest posting you’ve had in one place (6 months)? Why does it feel like home?
Talk to you soon,
