Should I move to Nashville, Tennessee with my bf?

My boyfriend and I are both college students. I graduate next year and he's transferring to Vanderbilt this year. When I graduate he wants me to go to but I'm not sure if I should. Can anyone one give me some advice?

Update:

We've been together for 3 years

    Well it depends on how you feel about the situation. Why don't you want to go? Why do you want to go? Are you just afraid of change? Or does it have something to do with your relationship? Here's the thing, I'm not sure how long you both have been together or how serious it is, but now that you are graduating you have a lot to look forward to. Things to look forward to in your life and possibly both of your lives. I don't think anyone should really make the decision for you as to rather you should go. That's your choice and your choice alone. He isn't even in charge of that decision. Before you come to a conclusion, I believe you should look at the Pro's and Con's. Will you both be financially stable? Do you have any employment prospects there? And more importantly has your relationship developed to the point where you feel that this would be a good idea? This move could be considered a big step and you want to make sure that this is the right thing (not only relationship wise, but financially). Financial hardship can put quite a strain on a relationship.

    As I stated above, I don't think any of us can make this particular decision for you. Just be strong, think it out, be sensible, and do what is best for you. Don't go just because, it will make him happy. If you do then you'll be unhappy and it will effect the way you both interact. So as I said, do what is best for you. ;) Good luck.

    If you're completing your first degree this year and will move after you're done with the first degree, I say make the move with him, but make sure you have someonthing to look forward to in the new city besides your boyfriend. Don't just move blindly. Reserach the new area (schools, career). Will you go to school in the new area or will you start work? In other words move with him to this area if you have something to get into. Don't just move there because he asked you. What if things don't work out and you're in this new town because he asked you to move with him. You will be miserable big time. Have something going on for yourself besides the boyfriend.

    You should only move if YOU want to live in Nashville. If your boyfriend really wants you to live there with him he should ask for your hand in marrage. If he is not able or willing to make that commitment, is he worth it? He may say he loves you but taking a marriage vow commits the couple in their relationship.

    He is asking you to make the commitment to follow him to Nashville. What is he willing to commit to in return?

    Do you feel like you would spend the rest of your life with him? Would he go to the moon for you? Do your parents love him as much as you do? If you answered 2 yes then it will probably be a good challenge you just have to work at it

    i disagree with that banjo comment, people who live in nashville are not hicks or red necks... if you are commited and in love, knowing that it will last, then it would be a wonderful idea. there is alot to do in nashville, i known because i have lived here most of my life... education here is wonderful and i think that you would enjoy spending your time doing all kinds of wonderful things.

    stay and graduate unless you can find a job that pays well in nashville (try for a job on the vanderbuilt campus)

    Before moving to Tennesse, ask your-self, "Do I have a pretty mouth." Also, a love of banjo's and dislike of education might be motivating factors. Good Luck.

    No. Nashville is a very expensive place to live, and has little to show for it.
