You are 19, which means you can make your own decision.
I moved up to yorkshire from kent, I'm back in kent now, but if you want to give it a go with your man then your family should respect your decision,
it is hard for a parent to let go, but on a routefinder i just looked at Liverpool to Hull, East Riding of Yorkshire and at 125 miles its a couple of hour drive, Obviously it depends on where in yorkshire, I lived in 2 villages and the scenery is second to none, its lovely!
You will be moving to be with your man, who wont be there all the time as he works away... Your family are trying to protect you, you may get very lonely in a new place without knowing anyone...
Why not try to promise (and keep to it as best you can) that you will drive / travel back once a month for an overnight stay? and let them know they can do the same? This way you get to see them, they dont feel you're running away, and if you do get lonely or homesick you already have regular visits planned.

its your life Hun and people will spout their advice, that's normal, i have kids and a 19 year old daughter who is mature. She has done OK so far but still needs her mum sometimes, let your mum know that you want to do this, but if it goes wrong can you come home that's is all she wants to hear and i am sure u will call her all the time. It will be lonely when ya fellow is away, taking it as he is in the forces, so apply for a job on the base and go to the social clubs for wives and girlfriends. so you are not isolated. good luck let me know how it turns out x

i can see that you think your independent, but its different when you have to do it on your own. im not gonna patronise you though, coz i dont know you well enough to judge. all i can say is that why dont u just keep your engagement to your fiance and just have a long distance relationship, it will show the strength of your relationship and you dont fall out with any of your family. if you want to make a drastic change in your life like that, you need alot of suppot- you cant afford to lose your friends and parents. good luck xx

ok i am a mum! if my son was in your situation i would not hold him back. as long as i knew he was safe and looked after then i would be happy for him. i would make sure he knew that he always had a home to come back to should he need to. i would be devastated at him leaving home but would hope that he will follow all his dreams and ambitions without letting me and his dad hold him back. you need to stand on your own two feet at some point in life and if you feel ready then follow your heart. make sure you explain all of this to your mum and dad. they will find it hard but will evenually understand. like you said. you learn from mistakes. us mums can only advise you and love you unconditionally....thats why we catch you when you fall!!! good luck sweetie and i hope everything works out for you. my advise to you is never look back and think what if! reach for those dreams! better to regret having done something than to sit on your bum and do nothing in life! xx

people do learn by there mistakes, that's probably why they are being the way they are. if you go try and make amends with your family,and tell them you are in this to last. god i wish you all the best, and hope that you are happy, good luck sweetheart,x
