Namaste,

I would suggest that you go ahead with what you had planned for - that is, your career.

If you do settle down with this guy, then your entire life, you will feel like you settled for less, and that might get to be a contentious issue.

So if going abroad was your goal, then stick to it, and do everything you can to fulfill your dreams. I am sure you will find many young men that have similar aspirations as yourself, with whom it'll be easier to settle down with.

Finally, I'd just like to say that it was good that you two spoke about your future plans beforehand itself, because such things, like having children, or your country of residence could end up being really big issues in the future if you both have different views on the same subject.

Best of luck!
