I would emigrate, with no problem...I have a male friend that lives in France, and we have been talking for going on3 years.. I have already been to France to see him, and he has been here in America to see me, and will be coming back in January for 3 weeks... We are taking our relationship slow, I already know we will be together!! He still works, and has about 10 years before he retires. I am fixing to retire and sell my business. It would be easier for me to go France... He is learning English, and I am learning French...Haha.. He is doing better than I, French is difficult..I think it depends on the individuals situation!!!
