What would be most important is for you to understand the other relations that each of you have, other than each other. For example, family, siblings, close freinds and so on..

While the expectation is that two of you would be giving eachother happiness through your life, when there are other relations coming into your world, that is where the culture and the hoopla around it brings its problems.

While the two of you know that you love each other, even the definition or belief on how to treat your partner can be very different in your bigger belief systems. Hence, I would for beginners suggest you to take a vacation with him. Speak a lot with each other on the expectations (keep it grounded and not lofty romantic ones) and then thinkg logically about you guys moving cities and lifes.
