I'll make this short and sweet because I'm very eager to hear your opinions.
I met Jess on the Internet. She's wonderful, everything I had ever wanted, yada yada engagement. We are deeply in love. However she resides in Utah, while I live in New Zealand. We still talk to each other by phone, and it's fine. we play WoW together .
Now, I have yet to go on a mission, I will do so in July. Afterwards, we're going to get married in Manti, then move to NZ for a couple of years while she makes money for a nest egg and I get some degrees. then we'll move back to the US to start a family.
Fine, right? well, you see, she's coming over to visit for about a week or two before I leave on my mission. Now, the problem is, we've been together for 5 months, and engaged for two weeks or so. we haven't even held each other's hand and we won't see each other again for two more years. Both of us are getting a little worried that something... untimely could happen.
Any thoughts? How can we avoid slipping? should she even come at all? have you had a similar situation? Please let us know your opinions.
