I think that part is left to the imagination of the spectator.

But how do you see it?

I don't know. Frasier lived with Lilith for more than a year before he married her and when she cheated on him it seemed that he was still in love with her. His relation with Lilith started off very differently from the one with Charlotte. It took Diane's (of all people) intervention for them to get together. They seemed perfect for each other for years and yet in the end it failed.

So it could go either way, as far as I know. It could fail sometimes down the line, early or after years of ups and downs or it could pass the test of time and Charlotte becoming the woman he spends the rest of his life with.

It could be that Charlotte had already met another man, like the first one or that he had already called her and was sure of her response. It could be that she had already accepted to come with him to San Fran.

Anything is possible.

Eh, I think we can rule out the possibility of the Frasier-Charlotte relationship's failure; the creators wanted to convince us that there was a happy ending. On some websites it is suggested that he chooses love over career, though I always assumed he invited her to Frisco.

Bit of a fail with the quoting there.

Maybe he got back in contact with Kate Costas - she left for Chicago to turn a radio station into a talk radio station - so he could work there and pursue Charlotte

Although, now that he's changed his mind about cats (he's no longer lethally allergic to them and don't mind having them around) maybe he could try again with Kate as well.

I like that idea. Although I liked Charlotte, I didn't think she was ever in love with Frasier. So maybe he talked to Charlotte and realized things couldn't work out between them. He looked up Kate just because he was in Chicago and she was still single and one thing lead to another. I like that scenario. He could easily find work in Chicago and would also be closer to Freddy.

Yes, and maybe he could also start pursuing Jay Cutler.

Actually, Kelsey Grammer is nearing the perfect age for role reversal. Frasier becomes the old guy living with his son, to carry the Freddy thing one step further. Then all the supporting characters come into play, the fussy brother, and his wife, even great grandpa if it was done soon enough. Of course, nobody would probably go for this idea, but it has some merit and could be a very workable show. But I believe that John Mahony is 73, so they better get crackin soon if great grandpa is in the show... Grammer is 57, I think, so 6 years before he is the 63 that Martin was when he moved in with Frasier. Of course, John Mahony refused other TV offers, in favor of theatre.
