[quote=Anonymous]I would have a very real conversation on the future and marriage, if that is what you both want, as it sounds like it is. I would suggest you discuss what a timeline might look like to make sure you are on the same page. Otherwise, you may wind up across the country with no job, family or friends waiting for a ring that may not come when you want or expect it...or ever.

An ex and I were very much in your shoes - we had been dating for 15 months, were in love, and talked about getting engaged and married all the time. He was transferred several states away for work and asked me to move with him. When I pressed him that I had a lot to give up (same as you - work, family, friends, home) and wanted to set a plan for the future we always talked about, he balked. He was someone who enjoyed talking about the future and all that could happen, but wasn't ready or interested in taking that step. He did want me with him so he didn't have to be alone himself in a new city and new workplace with no family or friends around.
