Hi

I'm on my mid-forties, I had not been lucky when it comes to relationships, it's not that I have ever been on a relationship in the past, don't get me wrong. In fact, I have been on a couple of healthy relationships in the past, 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 told me to take one of these tours to Russia which are popular these days because I’d meet nice & beautiful women, and after thinking it over a lot I 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 ask her to marry me?

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

Thanks
