That i like america this much??

I live in America and my fiancé lives in western Europe. We both agreed when we were first together if we end up together I would be the one to move over there. Now it's a few months before the wedding and I don't want to go!!! What if I hate it there? What if I never get used to it? I mean America is the best country on earth! Right? Not like I'm moving to Africa but still. Anyone been in this situation or moved to a different country? I love him and I know he's the one for me, but is he worth giving up my family, friends, my whole life, to start a completely new one?? Am I normal for feeling this way or am I just overanalyzing everything and making myself crazy?

    Cutting through the generalisations you're making about countries, it sounds like you have some fear about the huge step you're making in your life. That's entirely normal. I have a German friend who married an Englishman. She likes it here but misses Germany. I put the idea in her head of swapping countries every ten years, so ten years in Germany, ten years here, and so on. I was half-joking but now they're actually going to do it. Maybe you could do the same?

    I shall be blunt for your sake... If you are happy with him, who gives a fcuk about the USA? .. Even if you did, any western European country is better than the US. Anyone that tells you otherwise is bias. Trust me on this. Go, you won't regret it. Specially if you are happy with him. Also, think of your possible kids. Euro education is better than USA education, from experience.

    Yes this is perfectly normal. It is very hard leaving behind everything you knew and starting over. They also have a different government system that you will have to adjust to. So I do not think it so much hate Europe but the idea of leaving everything you are use to.

    Y do u keep assuming that Americans think that way? I don't. I think almost every country in the world is interesting in its own way. But America does have culture, visit New Orleans, Lousiana sometime.

    Idk, I like America for it's freedom but that's it. I'm a few years, I'm vacationing at several other countries and seeing if something's better than America. As soon as America gets out of debt, call me.

  • You Americans really need to take a good look at your country. Think to yourself. Do all these huge skyscrapers make your country look awesome? Big isn't always beautiful. Some of your cities look downright hideous, like Lincoln, NE. The US is wildly overrated and it's sad how some Americans think that their country is the best, and therefore to go to another country means going to a dump just because it hasn't got skyscrapers or big cars.

    Besides, Europe is a wonderful continet rich in culture and history. America's history/culture is very poor. Please, for the love of God, get used to the fact that there are hundreds of other countries that are all great.

      Their are better uses for blankets. Using them to make a general statement about something you obviously don't know much about sounds a bit, well, American. I live in stumptown, we pride ourselves in eluding the skyscraper and love our big trees :)

      OP- you are just nervous. I'm sure you'd feel the same way if you were moving to Alaska (assuming you don't live there now). But the world is connected, get skype and a web cam to ease the separation.
