Hi everyone.

Lookin for any advice offered regarding my current situation.

Ive only being seeing my boyfriend for 2 months and we are both head over heels in love with each other.I really think ive found my soulmate.

There is a 10yr age gap between us and he has a child from a previous relationship but neither of these has caused any problems.

Weve both met each others family and everything is great there too!

The problem is that my family are imigrating this year and im not sure what to do.

Currently im stayin at my bf almost every nite of the week so we are practically living together.But when my family go,my only option will be to live with my boyfriend and we're both worried this will put too much strain on our relationship.My bf is also worried incase we dont work out and ill have no one to turn to.

Of course i have plenty friends and my real dad here.But is that enough?

My options are living with my boyfriend,stayin with my dad who lives an hours drive away or goin abroad with my family.

My bf and i are so happy together and neither of us want to lose each other.But we both want to slow things down a bit so we dont rush into too much too fast and ruin everything we have together.As we have only been together a short time neither of us thinks its a good idea for me to move in officially incase we get to settled to quick,or become bored with each other.

Any advice would be much appreciated

Im glad that you are thinking about the "what if's?", but dont doom this before you even try..... Take one day at a time and see where things go, you may

Well you say you want to slow things down... did he say that too ?? And was it after the discussion of living together? That's your answer if it was. I still wouldn't live with someone only 2 months of dating. That's the whole butterfly period when everything is right. If there is talk of slowing things down, living together is not the path to take.
