A very BIG move!
Ok...so I'm with someone that I KNOW i want to spend my life with! It's the perfect relationship with the most amazing guy. Everything up to this point has been flawless between us. The other day he and I were talking and started joking about just running away together to some island where we can get away from the hustle and bustle and drama of everyday life here in the states. Day by day this joke became more and more serious and at this point, the joke is no more. We have both spent countless amounts of time looking online for places and jobs and whatnot in our dream destination, Costa Rica. Am I crazy to drop life as I know it and move to a very far away place with him?? More so, am I crazy for doing this at the young age of 22?!?! (keeping in mind, he's ten yrs older and very well off)
thanks, 22 yr old male =)

Yes, this is crazy. But you realize it's crazy so that makes it a little better.
Personally, I wouldn't do it. Once you move past the romance of running away, you're left with the reality of your decision: Do you speak Spanish? Can you support yourself in a foreign country? Will you be safe? How will your family react to your eloping? What happens if things don't work out between you two?
But here's the good news: you're not me. So I can tell you to go for it. You are young enough to make a reckless decision like this and not regret it down the road. There is a chance this could be the best decision of your life.. just be smart about it. Voice your concerns before you both make the decision. Talk about the anticipated problems and the roadblocks, get it all out in the open so that when problems come up, they aren't taboo.
Costa Rica is beautiful. If you do it, send pictures.
