Curious

Sooo me and my SO will be together for 1 year on January 1, 2016 ... He lives 2.5-3 hours away from me . So his lease is up in February and he's asking me to move with him . I'm definitely thinking about doing it . But I've just heard so much negativity , like it's not gonna work . You should try moving by yourself first . Don't chase your boyfriend . Don't leave your job  Blah blah blah . My question is , has anyone ever had a great experience moving in with your SO ? Starting a new life with someone turned out great ? Anything
