By now you have probably already made up your mind one way or another, and you already hinted that you weren't really asking, more like telling what you were going to do.
Having said that, let me add to the chorus in advising you against the venture.
Speaking from experience, yes there can be good times, happiness, even love, but invariably it all comes crashing down in a steaming pile of shit. The last time for me left me totally devastated, and quite cynical, but I learned my lesson and have since changed my punting routines entirely. They say experience is a harsh teacher, but fools learn from no other..

So, in short, don't do it to yourself.

But I have a feeling you already have, in which case, good luck to you sir, I sincerely hope it works out and proves us all wrong.
