We will be engaged by summer, married by 2022. The issue is her being in another country currently with the lockdowns, we’ve discussed marriage and kids a million times. Canada didn’t let me in at all, despite having extensive business documentation, they still told me to F off during covid. So we have been limited, but us working remotely (I always have with my business) has made it possible despite she being forced to quarantine. She’s moving up within her company to the states, which is the quickest/easiest/cheapest way. We will both be moving to a new city together. It’s not if we get married/engaged... more like when. It would have happened by now in normal circumstances.
I'm glad to hear you've found 'the one' and I wish you both all the best. These have been trying times (can't imagine being a pregnant woman at this time.) But it sounds like you two have made the best of things and have a plan. :D Good luck.
Luckily she’s moving to America. Prior to the shutdown I was somewhat open to moving to Canada, I’ve lived all over America, my hometown is 90 minutes from the border, and financially making USD living there would be a nice advantage. I made it pretty clear though if Trump was re-elected or we go into a civil war I’m not leaving(the fact she didn’t even question my half insane civil war comment outside of “what if we have kids then” made her a keeper lol).
Then as Covid lockdowns happened she went from “We will figure out” to “Canada is f’ed, I can’t deal with this, I’m moving to America to be with you”.. with the help of a opportunity she couldn’t turn down within her company here in the states. It’s in a different American city than I’m in, which works fine for me.
Now you are talking, yes, she cannot have just been tuning you in and out like a radio station ( sometimes we do that ) with all the frankness going on. I am very happy for you, Fren. A good wife will be a blessing: I know we can melt into a pool of irrational behavior but that is why we love the strong, leading males!
Sounds like you found a goo co-pilot!
If she's worth moving in with, she's worth marrying. Put a ring on it and do it right. Good luck. Glad you found one who is on your side.

You must really love her if you were willing to move to Canada to be with her. After the marriage they surely can't keep you apart.
Thanks for the kind words!
