A month is nothing. Give it a bit more time.

I know it just seems as if they are looking at the other city on my resume and pass it by. I included on my cover letter that I plan on moving but nothing yet.

I haven't. I won't even date men who are beyond a certain travel distance from my city. So it's unlikely to ever happen. "If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with."

Nope and I never will. I'm not giving up my current life for a woman. Not worth it since most relationships end.

I moved 3,000 miles to be with my SO. With a brand-spanking new infant and not knowing anyone, I was very lonely.

That's what I am scared of. I have never been away from my family who I am very close to. But I feel in my heart that he's worth the move

Yes. I moved to Barcelona after 9 months of dating, because he got a fantastic job opportunity and I realized whatever I had going on back in NYC would still be there if things between us didn't work out. I was able to get a student visa and did some under-the-table English tutoring and translation work to pick up extra cash, but luckily I had a bit of savings for a financial cushion.

Most people I know thought I was crazy: Moving to (and moving in with) another country where I didn't speak the language or have a job with a guy I had been seeing for what is a relatively short period of time. But you know what? I knew in my heart it wasn't a bad decision, and I knew in my gut that I could extricate myself from it if it was.


(p.s. It worked out.)

At least you'll be working.
I had a fabulous and fast-paced job in nursing while my husband was the stay-at-home parent.
The the tables turned and I discovered I'd rather slit my wrists than go to another Mommy and Me group or watch another Barney cartoon.
Turns out, I don't breed well in captivity.

I did... To get away from someone. The relationship was toxic.
