writes: Hello everyone. My girlfriend and I met online almost a year ago. We already got to meet in person last March when I flew to her home state to visit her and again last week when she flew to see me. We get along very well and we love each other even more. We feel that it is time we move in together but our families want us to wait. We want to go out on dates now and it's very depressing being so far away. What should we do, wait or just move in?

Moving in together is quite quick when you haven't really seen very much of each other. I think this is what your families are concerned about; the sudden committment.
Meeting someone online does pose some risks but it can certainly work too.
I think your situation is dictating that the only way you can be together is by moving in together because you live so far apart. Are you sure there isn't another way that you could see each other and build up more familiarity with each other?
You could move in together and discover that you don't really like each other at all! I would urge caution on this one. It would be better if you continue to see each other in any way that you can, maybe stay with each other over a weekend.
Remember that moving in together is a big committment and should be taking very seriously.
Good luck.
