Kristie-

I first want to thank you for offering to answer some questions, and offer your opinions. I read you article and enjoied it very much

I am 23 years old and a senior at UND. I am also engaged to a great girl who supports me in my career choice 100%. I am very fortunate!

She is from ND and has never lived more than a 5 hour drive from her parents. I will be graduating soon and we will be moving away.

My main concern is making the transition as easy as posible for her. I am moving her away from everything she has ever known to a completly different part of the country, and then I wont be around much to help ease the process.

I would give up flying for her. (for a pilot that is saying alot!) But I really dont want it to come to that. She is a strong, independant person, and I am very confident we can make this work together.

I quess what I would like from you is some ideas on how I can make all of this easier for her. She has given up a lot for me and I dont want her to feel left behind.

Thank you in advance

Shawn
