New Start in the Netherlands

A FRESH START
Hello everyone! For those of you who don't know me, my name is Ann-Marie and I've set up this page to ask for help with something. 
Lately I've been getting signs that if I need help, I have to ask for it so this is me asking you all, the universe, any guardian angels out there, for help with moving to the Netherlands for a new start with the love of my life. 

A BIT OF BACKGROUND
My boyfriend and I met around 14 years ago online and we've maintained a pretty solid friendship in all those years, with various ups and downs as you'd expect, communicating through emails and Skype and Facebook.
Over time, this has developed into more and finally last year, after a lot of hit and misses haha, we finally met face to face for the first time!
It was an amazing moment I will never forget!
I suffer with Anxiety Disorder and getting on a plane for the first time was a HUGE stumbling block I had to overcome in order for this meeting to happen.
Believe me, I was bricking it something awful and almost didn't get on the plane, I was so terrified!
Having never been abroad before, never been on a plane and travelling alone, I'm sure most of you can understand exactly how daunting this all felt. 
But I felt that the Universe was telling me this was where I had to go and so I refused to let fear win and I took the leap! :) 
A very nice lady, whom I am now friends with, sat next to me on the plane and kept me calm throughout the whole flight so I know someone out there was looking out for me and making sure I was safe. 
Once we'd landed and I walked out of the gate, I saw him and something inside me told me I was home. 
No fear, no doubts, just the certainty that something amazing had finally clicked into place for me, for us both. 
When the Universe gives you a gift, you really know it!

WHY I'M ASKING FOR HELP
After spending Christmas and New Year together, we realised we wanted to start a life together and so, after discussing the pros and cons, this would require me to leave the UK and move to The Netherlands to be with him. 
Not something easily managed but with some hard work and help, its a very possible dream and one that I'm asking for all of your help with. 
I'm already in the process of trying to find a job there so I'll be able to support myself. Also, I will be raising as much money from my own wages and anything I can sell while I'm still in the UK.
However, getting started and set up will take a little time and so I'm asking for help to see me through the first month or two. 
This will be in terms of rent, food, utilities, travel, healthcare, anything unexpected that may come up while I'm trying to get my feet under me. 

WHY THIS MEANS SO MUCH TO ME
I'm sure some people will ask why donate to something like this when there are worthier causes out there and I won't disagree, there are a lot of folks around who need more help than I do.
But if you've gotten this far through my writing, then I'm hoping I have a chance of your help and support. 
All my life, I've dreamed and wished and hoped for an opportunity like this, to be with someone I love very deeply and who loves me in the same way. 
I was never the popular girl, or the thin girl, or even the pretty girl and I felt sure throughout most of my younger years that something as wonderful as this would never happen for me. 
But last year, I took a chance on a man who means the absolute world to me, who helped to show me that I'm worthy of love and makes me feel beautiful inside and out. 
I want to be with him more than anything, to love him and share a life with him.
So, as cheesy and silly as it might sound, this is a chance to show that love really does make the world go round. 
Please help me to realise our dream <3 

WHEN I PLAN TO MOVE
Really, I would love to do this as soon as possible so within six months would be ideal, by the end of the year at the latest, depending on help and finding a job in or near Tilburg, which is where my boyfriend lives and where I plan to move to. 

If you feel you can't donate to this, then please feel free to share, pass it along, get the word out there any way you can. Any help or assistance given has my undying gratitude. 

Much love and light to you all!
