Ding ding ding re the bolded. My sentiments exactly.

Everyone else in NJ doesn't have all those same problems all the time with dating, with jobs, with friends. It's not the place that is the problem, dude.

And we don't have "convos" in New Jersey, either. Have a safe trip home.

Well, NJ isn't for everyone. No place is. I moved here from out of state 7 years ago and have settled in quite nicely. I have many friends here, and many of them are transplants too, and many are "locals." I like NJ just fine, but if you're miserable here, then maybe it's just not the place for you and you should try something else.

oh its on like donkey kong!!!!

whats good about new jersey? i dont have to pump my own gas. but more realistically, its positives and negatives are similar to any other state. its what you make of it. the state doesnt make my life great. my family and friends do and that would be the case no matter where i live. but im very comfortable in my town and feel all the things i need are very convenient for me.

Figured it was only a matter of time before I got a female response. Alright, NJ is one of the best places to live, every likes it. And the Jersey girls are awesome, nobody here has issues dating except for the lone cali guy, me. Friends are great, as are the jobs, Im just a nutjob who cant keep friends or a jobs, because there are so many jobs all over the place since we arent in recession. Thanks, ill take my crazy but back to cali with all the other crazies.

Lol hey man, im glad you have a lovely life, friends family jobs white picket fence. Not too many 22 year olds have all of that, even the ones in NJ. And as I said before, NJ isnt for me. Is it NJ fault? No. Everything isnt for everybody. And btw, I have read plenty of comments from people on this site saying how much they cant stand this place, and most of them moved from NY. So no, I am not the only miserable person in NJ.
