DEAR DEIDRE: Following a whirlwind romance, my new boyfriend and I are talking about moving in together.
But friends and family have made it clear they think I’m being too hasty. I’m so confused about what to do.
I’m 30 and he’s 32. We met online over Christmas and hit it off straight away.
But we live 100 miles apart. We’ve been talking every night and messaging every day, and we’ve had as many weekends together as we could manage.
Now he’s suggested that we get a flat together in his hometown, as my job is more flexible.
I’m so excited to be with him, but also very nervous, as it’s only been a few months.
My friends think I’m being impulsive, and my parents have said I am crazy and will get hurt – like I have been in the past.
Their opinions matter to me, but I have fallen madly in love and am pretty sure he’s the one. What should I do?
Every problem gets a personal reply from one of our trained counsellors.

DEIDRE SAYS: Your friends and family are worried about you because they love you.
However, it’s your life. If your gut tells you he’s the one, then don’t let them talk you out of following your heart.
Perhaps you could ask him to come and stay for a week before you commit to a decision. That way he can meet your family and friends properly. See my support pack on Long-Distance Relationships.
