Where do you live now and what makes you want to live in Germany? Why doesn’t the person you love move to Germany with you, if it’s your dream, maybe they love you enough to follow you?
I really don’t want to come across like I’m preaching to you, because I’m not. But when I was 18 I gave up going out of state to a really great college to stay near home to be with the girl that I loved. I’m 26 now and regret that decision more than anything. I’m engaged to the most wonderful woman I’ve ever known and never speak to my high school love anymore (mutual breakup). I know you truly love this person but I implore you to please follow your dreams. You’ll meet so many people throughout your lifetime and you’ll change so much you’ll shock yourself. Remember: never let ANYBODY stop you from doing what you want. And there’s nothing saying things would have to end between you two. As somebody who was in your same boat just a few years ago, my advice is to head to Germany.
I want to live in Germany too…I’m glad I’m not alone…
Does that person know how you feel, if they don’t you should definately let them know, and be very direct about it
I’m 18 too and I just got back from a trip accross Europe with my boyfriend. Berlin was definately my favorite city. It was AMAZING the people were so nice and everything was so cheap, it was almost surreal how perfect it was. I was entertaining the idea of moving there too.. But my bf is in school and I can’t picture us being apart. Experiencing Europe and Germany was the best time of my life and I’m sooo glad I got to share it with him. Maybe you and your lover could plan a similar trip. It is DEFINATELY worth visiting but moving somewhere so far away is such a big step when were so young, And it would be a scary transition to do alone as well. Maybe he would want to go along with you? You guys should definately plan a trip and if you really like it and want to go back than you should do it!
thanks a lot to author and Cris! I took a lot of decides of this theme despite the fact that I went to this site first time.
my English slightly worse – i’m from Russia. But I want to speak English free and I do it! And.. I dream to live in Germany too. if circumstances permit it I necessarily go to Germany. it’s the choice of my heart. maybe and your heart too?

I’m going through the same thing–I want to go to Germany but then I don’t because I’d never want to leave the one I love. Don’t forget that you can always study abroad for a little while and come back, that’s what I’m doing, and it’s not so long that he won’t wait for me. Maybe your loved one wouldn’t mind the wait either (there’s always skype!)
DO IT! I am moving to Germany at the end of August… You dont have to leave forever…. but TRY it… I thought I wanted to live in Spain, but I liked Germany better. So you never know what place will be the proper one for you, until you DO IT!
I will give you any advice I can. Get in touch with me…. check out http://www.toytowngermany.com lots of info about moving to Germany on there.
Love is overrated, adventure isn’t.
Don’t get stuck on the idea of finding happiness at some fixed place. I’ve lived in Germany for all my life and I can’t wait to leave…
I’d love to live in Germany too. The thing is, I’m too afraid to try b/c of the few people i dont want to leave behind.
You really could have both!
I’m engaged and moved to another country to follow my dreams. If the person you love really loves you back then they’ll wait for you.
it is not important where, but with whom .
I commented back in July that you should do it…
I did it! I have been in Germany for 3 months, I love it! I took a couple of cheap language courses through the “volkshochschule” and I have a job in a pub
Das Leben ist schoen!!
I take it that you mean that you love the life, not a person.
I, sometimes, wish that I would have loved my life more before globe-trotting to escape the one with which I grew.
Deutschland is great. I’m sitting in Baden-Württemberg as I write this…
I always wanted to study abroad, I’m going to Austria tomorrow to start to the University of Salzburg.
I was gonna stay here until I met my love.
I’m gonna go back.
But its okay. We both want to leave and go elsewhere once we finish school… so we’re gonna go together.
