We seemed to have a really good connection, something which I haven't felt with anybody for a long time. Now I have been home for a week and we really miss each other. We haved called each other most days. Our backgrounds are totally different however. I am from a Western country whereas his country is very poor. I don't know what to do, I would love to see him again and said I would try to come back in a few months but while I miss him, do you think it is possible anything would ever work out between us, seeing as our backgrounds are so different? If I went back I would fall for him even more and then it would be time to come home again - where would I go from there?! Should I just wait and see if we are still in touch etc in a few months. Just looking for some thoughts really. Thanks.

You need to find the right balance to work out what works in a long term relationship.
Of course keep an eye on whether the conversations you have with him hold your interest as this will help you to decide whether you have a lot in common with each other.
I don't think the background of you both is overly relevant, as long as you have a mental, physical and stable compatability, you're eagerness and determination to be together will shine through, and what is meant to be, will be.
I hope everything works out the way it should :-)
