No puedo esperar para estar con tu.
Is that an appropriate way to say, "I can't wait to be with you"?

Close, but not totally right. "No puedo esperar para estar contigo."

Correct me of I'm wrong, but can't you use "ser" if you intend to spend your life with this person? "Quiero ser contigo" - I want to be with you
Opposed to "Quiero estar contigo", as in "I want to be with you" (right now)

No, You can't. That's not correct. You must use "estar". - 00e657d4, Nov 13, 2009
Don't keep saying it is wrong without explaining why it is wrong. There is obviously divided oppinon here. - kenwilliams, Nov 13, 2009

Yes that sounds ok to me or perhaps you could say: no puedo esperar para ser contigo.

No, you can't. "Ser" is not correct. - 00e657d4, Nov 13, 2009

What's the difference between "...para estar contigo" and "...para ser contigo"? Would there be an instance where one is preferred over the other?

The difference is that "ser" is wrong in that sentence. - 00e657d4, Nov 13, 2009
