I'm on 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 in the past, don't get me wrong. In fact, I have been on a couple of healthy relationships before, but for some reason they never worked out.
For quite a while, after breaking up with my former girl, I know it sounds corny, but I started to lose faith in love because I really thought she was the one. So, as a way of relaxing and having a good time, this friend of mine advised me to take one of these tours to Russia you know the ones that are popular these days, because he said I’d meet beautiful women. At first, I gotta say, I had my doubts, but after thinking it over, I finally 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 death-gorgeous, smart and sincere gal, we just simply clicked 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,. I know it's hard to have long distance relationship, but she’s definitely worth it, plus I go to Russia every time I can.
I am very serious with her, we’re on a one-year relationship now, we have talked about her moving to the states and she’s ok with it.
Lately, I have started to think about popping the question once she moves in, of course she doesn’t know about it.
So here are my concerns:
Do you think I am rushing into things? Or should I just go for it and propose?
Do you think it will work? You know, me 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.
Any piece of advice would be very appreciated
