So I’m thinking of moving... again! The first time I moved halfway across the country because I was fed up with my kids dad and wanted to be closer to my maternal side of the family thinking that I could get support there.
And while I did I realized the culture was vastly different (it was super county-like) and ended up missing home terribly (a city atmosphere) and just felt miserable. So I moved to a city in the same state where I thought I’d be happier. While it’s been good for me to grow and plant roots here, my ex followed me here and now I’m sick of him and this town after two failed relationships and lots of bad memories.
The thing that I’m finding out about myself is I have an instinctual need to physically get away from those that are causing me harm. Miles and miles away. I’d put an ocean between us if I could. Also my quest for adventure and love of travel keeps me wondering if I’d be happier in a different town. And that’s how I look at relocating. As an opportunity to meet new people and explore. I’m missing the culture and vibe I grew up with on the East Coast though. The friends I grew up with are always asking me to move back and I’m really considering it. It’s a red state here and being a minority I feel the division.
Anyone else go through something like this?

People stay with people, they keep trying to make things work. They compromise and water themselves down to fit with someone. Do relationships fail because they're one sided, because people just settle, the illusion wears off or some other reason?
