If you do it only to create the *chance* that it will work, then you won't be disappointed--you will have been successful at that. Don't set it up so that it will be a total failure if you don't get married. Also, put down your own roots, make your own friends. Don't just transplant yourself onto him/her; this creates a strain on the relationship that doesn't need to be there. If things don't work out, you will still feel like a person in your own right. There is nothing wrong with moving to be near someone if it is that important to you to find out if things would work out. Sometimes it's the only way to find out. You have to take risks! I've never regretted any move I've made. Cheers, Pooh (now in New Joisey) Old Address: pur-ee!pooh New address: topaz!unipress!pooh Every day I write the book. . .
