    Yeah. It took me a long time to leave honestly. It’s scary to leave all your friends and family. I ultimately had an early mid life crisis and made me say fuck it and do it, but I get people choosing not to (even if it’s a choice, it sometimes feels like it’s not).

    I both hate the idea of moving back but also think I will some day. I kind of miss my family even though they’re extremely difficult to deal with a lot of the time. And I can’t leave my parents out to dry when they get old, regardless of all the trauma they caused me.

      I understand. It’s not something that’s easily done even just on an emotional level. I also feel increasingly guilty not being near my parents as they get older.
