I feel bad for many of my friends that still have to lug their clothes to the laundromat and wake up early in the morning to move their cars. I'm just saying that it gets old, after you turn 30.
well, nothing prevents them from moving to the nyc farther out burbs where those problems are solved, they dont have to move to MD for higher QOL
I think deep down( although you won't admit it) you wish you were still in NYC. Now you can only
post in NYC forum longing for the good old days( the best time of your life) when you were here.
Am I assuming too much?
Ahh yes, the good ole' days. Paying a lot for a studio without any amenities and having to board the crowded train with rude people pushing and shoving. Dammit I miss those days!!!
The Tri-state area as a whole can get a bit old for a lot of people. This is a pretty beautiful country with some great spots to live.
LOL Whenever I post on the NYC board, I have to bring out the attitude to deal with all of the angry residents who secretly want to leave, but can't. Yeah NYC is a great place when you're fairly young, but after 30 life is so much better elsewhere.

I knew from your first post that you weren't really as happy as you were pretending..
I'm happy it's just that ultimately I'd like to be surrounded by palm trees and year round warm weather. My problem is the cost of living in CALI, especially the Bay Area is high. I don't want to rent, I want to own and still have access to good nightlife and a vibrant city, so the DC metro area is ideal for me at this stage in my life.
Actually the real reason why many of these threads get made is because people realize they can't make the amount of money they need to in order to live their ideal lifestyle in NYC, so they move elsewhere with a lower COL, and then get all resentful and think we all deep down inside want to leave too. Smh.
