Some may say six months is a little too early to be thinking about marriage. But if you want to go ahead and commit with the aim of a long and happy future together, just ask yourself these questions; they apply to anyone in a relationship with a foreigner:

1) Where are we going to spend Christmas each year? How will our families feel about that?
2) In what country are we going to raise our kids? What support will we get from our families?
3) Am I prepared to relocate to my partner's country for work?
4) What will happen when our parents get old and sick?
5) How will we afford to keep moving between two countries? Am I prepared to sacrifice other luxuries (the summer holiday in the Mediterranean, for example) so that we can visit my partner's family?

These are the sorts of problems that cause friction in any relationship. But for your specific case, you must remember that when you marry a Pole you marry their whole family, especially the mother. Poles cherish their families, and if you keep mother's little boy away from her for too long, you will feel her wrath and your husband will be caught in the middle. That pressure has been known to end more than one relationship. Then there are the huge arguments because you want Christmas with your parents, but he wants Wigilia with his, which can explode out of all proportion if you haven't prepared yourself for it.

Any other things, like the wild drinking and the I-am-never-wrong arguments, are just Polish stereotypes and we've no reason to believe that your boyfriend is one of "those" sorts of men, so I can't comment. But the above questions should not be taken lightly.
