Let’s say they live far in another country
Depends on the country and several other factors since just moving based on emotions alone sounds very unreasonable. I'd never move to the U. S. and prefer a country that has the same or similar standard as mine when it comes to living conditions, healthcare and my own job possibilities. I am very close with my family and miss them despite living in the same country and "only" 6 hours away from them. So the person and the new opportunities would need to outweigh what I already have here. If the difference is just one person, I wouldn't do it.

I would relocate to a new house or apartment for a husband but not another country unless it was a place I would have chosen even if he was not around. I believe it’s possible to make your husband happy without making yourself miserable at the same time so there should be a place that both of us are happy living in.
How do you start dating someone who lives in another country? My fiancee is from China; I would have never met her if she was still there.
She lived about 80 miles away from me when we started dating, so I could drive there, have dinner together, then come home, or go visiting on weekends. I would have moved to her home eventually, but she chose to move to mine.
I already have. 🙂
The 15-hour time difference was hard on our LDR.
But, I’d only do that for someone I’m very serious with.
My S/O is my fiancée though — so that’s serious enough, haha.

It would all depend on the circumstances. I would have a very hard time leaving my family, but anything is possible.
I guess if they were my husband and it was for his job or something but other than that, I don't know. That's hard right now, at least for me, just because I have a lot of roots and things here that I've established and gotten used to, but maybe if they were really the love of my life or something and where I'd be going wasn't that bad or too remote/different.
My wife was born in a different country. She wanted to go visit her country I decided we should just buy a house so we can visit or stay whenever we wanted. Basically any place we have visited that she really liked we have bought property and houses. Far simpler than trying to sort out hotel rooms and reservations. We just fly in drive to the house and boom place to stay for our time there.
If she's my dream girl in every way (kind and intelligent, same views, same interests, same way of thinking, same way of communicating, same sense of humor, same love languages, sexually and physically compatible, etc) there isn't a place in the world I would not go for that girl.
I mean if I'm absolutely head over heels and the circumstances made that the only way and truly trust the person then yes I would.
That said Visas and getting residence in certain countries is not always a simple task. The logistics could be complicated and monetarily costly
Absolutely. I'm moving to Mexico shortly. I know my future wife is there, I've already spent significant time in villages there. I hope she doesn't want to come here though, because I'm not coming back. No desire to. Most there though, if you're doing all right and a decent person, they just want to be with you period, regardless of where. They wouldn't want to leave their family anyhow, it's HUGE there... and I wouldn't want her to anyhow.
If I understood how the family would be provided for. I have a solid job, not extravagant but enough for me and kids to live. My OH is native to south america, if she wanted to move back, I'd have to be confident we'd have a decent income
I have no problem with relocation. My company allows me to work from almost any country in the world... I would only need to realign meeting times and voilà
I’m not sure. It would really depend on the circumstances and what was going on in my life at the time. I might want them to be the one who relocates for me.
No, i would not. Sorry im established, own my home, and have a career i have been at for a decade. there is no chance in hell, even if she was perfect and ms right. Thank god im not in that boat though, im married lol.
I’d move to another house but I don’t think I’d move to another country. I’d be scared to be in another country because what if I need help or things don’t workout and I’m alone in a place I don’t know.
In the past no, but now that my income is very flexible, I certainly would if it was the right person.
I wouldn't have a "partner" , girlfriend, or wife in another country. That's not a real relationship, it's just bullshit.
No. Not to another country. Probably not even to another town because my family is here.
Yeah, if it’s someone I decided to be with and we build a strong foundation as a couple.
Was planning to do it for my last relationship but unfortunately lockdown lasted to long.
I sure would think you would want to get your partner close to you.
Yeah, I would be willing.. I would miss the fam, but I could just always visit, and it's not like they are necessarily keeping where I am..
We relocated to another country, but we both wanted to do it. I would never move just for a man alone.
I was seeing a woman who lived in Mexico City for a year and a half on alternate weekends before moving there - a year later she cheated on me and I left her and moved back to the US.
