| | Do you like the place you life at? I am tired of living here though. Has anyone ever dropped their job, home, etc and totally relocated to another city or state? I am curious how it worked out, and if there were any regrets...

| | I moved to my current location about 3 years ago. It was a big move because I moved away from all my family and friends who are now about 14 hours away.
I don't have any regrets, there is so many more opportunities now and I met my fiance here so I'm pretty happy!

I hated it at first and was miserable, but the city has grown on me now and I absolutely love it. Now if there is any talk of moving back home, I would immediately say no.

| | | As an adult, no. I can't say that I've packed up all my stuff and moved, not even within the same city.
I almost did this in 2004; I was in a somewhat stale and very unhappy long-distance relationship and my then-girlfriend was pressuring me to move to Tampa. I didn't really want to...not because I wouldn't move for the right woman, but because she wasn't the right one.
As it turned out, it was a good thing that I did not move...her youngest son convinced her to move back to Georgia a few weeks after I decided not to move, and within two years, she was dead...kidney failure and other health issues did her in.

I really think if you move for anyone else but yourself it's bound to end in disaster.

I would have been in a tough situation had I moved in with her; I'd have had to relocate not once but twice, have to live with people I no longer liked all that much, then...she'd have died within two years.

I agree. Only move for yourself. Even if you are in love with someone and want to be where they are but would rather not live in the city they are in, then I would think twice. I have seen many wonderful relationships turn into disasters because someone moved to a place they didn't really like.

| | | I can’t imagine myself moving out from where we are today. I like our place, the weather especially but if time permits and everything would fall into its place then why not, there’s nothing wrong to experience a new setting.

| | | Mine is a lovely case I was born in a neighboring state, studied there and stayed there up to the time of my marriage. Moved to this place where I am putting up, after my marriage.It is world's number one place, and I have no intentions of moving out of this place ever.

| | I am waiting currently to join a firm for which I'd have to relocate to another state. I am excited about it currently but don't really know how I'd manage yet.

| | | I have relocated several times. It can be a hard thing (when you move away from loved ones) and it can be a good thing (when you move away from someone you do not necessarily want in your life).
