Well, there'a always the chance that it wouldn't work out, and he took the risk. There was a lot of online buildup for six months... very serious getting to know each other... and when we met, and he came here and spent a week, we already had our hopes up pretty high that by the end of the week we'd know.
It was clear to us that he was the one who would have to move... I had two horses, dogs, and a cat here in Washington, he lived in an apartment in Minneapolis. Heh... he was more portable :~D
Sounds like a good deal to me. Course I would pick the horses and dogs over an apartment any day. Lived in both situations. I'm so glad it worked out for you, inspiring for the rest of us. At this point I feel I've already had it all, the marriage, the kids. I'd really love to find someone to spend the rest of my life with but if I don't, that's OK too. If God wants me to find someone, it will happen. I just have to be smart enough to see it when it does! ;)
