Cross Culture Relationship? - Talk About Marriage

Let me try to be more specific - the things we have in common are what have drawn us together - we enjoy the same music and movies and travel and holidays, etc.
We are highly attracted to each other as in, opposites attract type of thing. I am blonde and fair skinned and he is my middle aged version of Antonio Banderas, lol.
He is kind, courteous, etc.

We have big differences, I am not suggesting these are problems, just big differences: he talks to all his family members, every day, almost as if reporting in - they need to know where he is at all times (and this man is over 50 yrs old! LOL)

He is starting life over here after several mishaps. Long story short - he reunited with a college girlfriend on Facebook, they dated long distance, then he moved here to the US to be with her. Soon after moving here, he found out some fairly surprising things about her and they soon split up. Instead of going back to So. America, he has chosen to stay here and build a new life, so we are at very different places in our lives. I am looking to retire in 5 or so years and he is starting over....
Although the roles of men and women in his country have changed over the years, he is still somewhat old school, but at least open minded. He cooks for me, etc.
We sometimes have language difficulties - not always, sometimes.

Anyway, that's most of it....I am just trying to take it day by day, but worry about getting too involved and maybe wonder if I shouldn't go back to dating American born guys...
