Normally I'm all about family and having kids in your life, ect. But it sounds like the only reason you two aren't already married after 4yrs together is that you didn't feel strongly enough about each other to do it. To me that sounds like a relationship headed nowhere, so if that's the only thing holding you back, I say go for it. By the way, I know all about long term ex pat postings. Not because I've done it, because it's one of the software services my company sells. Many times as part of your companies mobility policy, a visit will be paid for ahead of you making your decision, depending on how high up you are in your organization. In addition, you can probably get them to pay for the storage of your Mustang while your gone. And I would ask for one funded trip home per year - I could go on and on. It's amazing how complex the policies can get - and how flexible they can be for the right person. It's really just like negotiating a position with a new company.
