" I live in Asheville, NC with my girlfriend of over 2 years... we have also talked about marrage and plan it 3-11. I couldnt imagine going through what you are... you should talk with her about it.. explain how unsure you are because you have never met her family etc. You want to be happy with her and have a good life together... maybe you can both come up with a compromise... just know if there isnt a compromise.. its a decision ONLY YOU can make... also... asheville is full of lesbians and alot of people move from florida to live here :):) Good luck to you.

" My fiance proposed to me while we were in a long distance relationship. She was in FL and I was in RI. We worked it out with phone calls every night and emails every morning. Now she is up here and we are thinking about June 2011 for our wedding.

There are a hundred different solutions for your problem, but you two need to sit down and figure out why there is a problem in the first place.

So I propose: Keep talking. Keep bringing up the subject and talking through it. Why is it that she wants to move back so badly, even though she's lived in FL for so long? Why do you feel like you can't live with her family? And what about jobs and schooling? Are you both able to find jobs in CA? What about FL? As you talk throught things, you may find fears that you didn't know existed.

Hearts and Good luck

" Ye of little courage? Its a tough one.
I think you should look into your heart and decide. What does that little voice inside say? Either way, let your yes be yes and your no be no. But decide. "
