Success!
Name: Kim
Her name: Laura
My age: 28
Her age: 26
Link to original member stats: Here
Together since: 25 October 2009
Time we were long distance: About 5.5 years.
Short distance since: 22 February! I'm currently in the Netherlands to pack up some last bits and arrange the last things, but I am now officially a British resident.
How we finally became local: Laura needed to move out of her old house (the landlord was crap and her and her roommate had had enough), so we decided to simply apply for a place together and found a flat! It all went fast from there, haha, with the application being approved within days and the key being handed over two weeks or so later. I finally dared to tell my parents about my plans (I always felt guilty, even though I shouldn't), and by now I have arranged nearly everything over there. :) It's exciting!
Future plans: First I need to move over all my stuff (or what I want to keep, at least), then I need to find a job (I'm currently self-employed, but I'd prefer a more steady job eventually) and eventually we plan on getting married - we're already engaged. After that: kids! But not too soon, haha.
