Although he has not decided when he will have to leave yet, I have been mentally prepping myself...
P.S. - We are official boyfriend-girlfriend now. According to him, I'm his "potential wife". :) He is the kind of person who doesn't take relationship too lightly. He said he will make it "official" when he sees me as someone he will marry. He just cannot call someone his "girlfriend" if he cannot see marrying. Let's hope that he will do what he says he would!
So happy for you, friend. True love conquers all....and always prevails - when it's right, it works.
