Finally closed the distance!! [USA to Germany]

My husband and I met on reddit and clicked instantly. We sent each other these huge sprawling messages that broke reddit's character count for DMs haha. I flew to see him in October 2022 for the first time and it was magical. It was like I'd known him forever! We decided to do a LDR even though he'd never been in one before. Honestly I couldn't ask for a more supportive, thoughtful partner. He proposed to me in 2024 at a lake in the snow - it was so romantic! We got married in Denmark in January 2025 after a lot of back and forth visits and it just felt so right.

We just bought a house and I finally feel like I have a real home. Today we finished the paperwork for my spousal visa and got approved. :) I can officially stay in Germany with him! I'm so excited to never have to really leave him again! I do miss my family but I feel he is my "home" so I'm blissfully happy. I wish all you guys luck with your LDRs and hope they're as successful as mine.
