plenty of people move for love and of those, some work out and some don't.

if you choose to not move, there may always be that "what if?" question.

I moved for love 7 years ago and the relationship didn't work out, but I had my own job and some friends in the place I'd moved, so I stayed anyway. It became a really great adventure and I'm glad I didn't go "home".

I recommend that if you DO choose to move, make sure you establish your own community. Don't just hang out with his friends/family. Even if the relationship does become something meaningful and lasting, it's always nice to have your own friends too.

One question:
Why he didn't invite you to go to Germany with him instead of leaving you behind?
Think about it.

He always did. But when I met him in Germany we both got shy and uncomfortable....he went into thinking deep and got scared that he cant uproot me from my native place and culture. WE decided that we will talk about it but I refused to talk at that time.

Now you changed your mind? Are you prepared to leave your family, friends and culture behind to stay with him ? Have you considered positive and negative points of moving to a new country?

Yes......I didnt chage mind...I always wanted to live where he was..i didnt talk at that time because I was hurt.

Anyway...I dont want to live in my country. I have to leave it one day...and I love him so much that the pros and cons doesn't matter.  I wud hv lived on mars too if was there

I see you have high expectations but be careful you may end up hurt.

Do you need help finding an employment agency in Germany and visa?

Yes. I think some education course...a higher degree too cud be a good idea.

Germany is also my second option. Anyway according to http://www.make-it-in-germany.com/en/wo … ragt-sind/
engineers and IT specialists, as well as health
specialists, are in short supply it means these professions are in demand so you will likely get a job.

Thank you!!

I have been in talks with a few Germans in healthcare sector there and they too said that I can get a job with my credentials. But I'll have to learn their language first. True?

Yes definitely. It's becoming more common for employers to
look for language skills on prospective
employees' resumes. Having a language like
German on your resume gives you an edge over
other job candidates because Most of the expats that apply for job don't speak german. Many companies pay
higher salaries to bilingual employees, or offer
bonuses based on language skills and proficiency.
The more benefit you can bring to a company,
the more attractive you are in the job market.

Great Thanks!1  I felt English was enough

I genuinely wish you best of luck and that everything goes well.
Are you planning to leave soon?

No, I have started to look out, I wanna leave my country...so i thought lets take a chance with germany before i try for the US.  It will take another year i think.

I gave up on US. But Take your time. But i don't know if you are aware that ever since 9/11  it's not been easy to immigrate to US ? The policy became very strict.And the economy is still somehow unstable.
