Should I move back home?
So last year me and my bf moved to Washington state, and I hate it here... First things is I feel like some of the food establishments are kind of gross and dirty, and I never can get any good food... What the heck 😒 The only place I like is Dukes, and another place, but each of those places cost a pretty penny to eat good... It seems like I’m complaining over nothing, but where I use to live, there were several restaurants that have my favorite food, that I can not get anywhere else, and it’s affordable and it doesn’t taste like 💩 and it can drive five minutes to get there.
Right now I’m pregnant and all i am craving is, food that I cant have, and it’s tormenting me. Anything I try to eat here is making me want to gag, and it’s just not the same quality food idk how to explain it, but if I could have you guys taste the difference in the restaurants back home compared to others, it’s like the “secret recipe” that you can’t-get anywhere else lol 🤷🏻♀️ I know I sound crazy .... I feel like this has been a long year for me, because I don’t have any friends here, no family, and it’s such a big world, where people don’t even treat each other decently for the most part... I miss my old job, where my co workers became my friends, I miss my other friends, and my family, and once I have my baby, I want to be HOME with everybody, now feeling stranded here.
My boyfriend is African American and he has been bringing up the point that he feels it’s a racist state, because a lot of people here say dumb shit, and I didn’t expect that because there are so many cultures here, but a lot of the white people here, stair and they say ignorant things.. So he said he definitely does not want to raise his kid here... but the reason we came here, was for the pay increase. At least for him... He use to make like 2,000 every week. But the company got shut down, and now he’s at a new company and making less... the cost of living here is expensive, and we even moved out of Seattle, to the ghetto ass Tacoma, but pay almost 2,000 in just rent... I think my boyfriend knows that home is better, but was in denial because it was him who moved us out here... All we do is work and sit at home, now the whole virus thing is happening and I would just rather be close to people I know... Now that I’m pregnant I think he will agree to go home eventually, but I don’t know.. He had a good job back home, and his company really took care of him, and said if he wants to come home he has a job always... people here aren’t like that at all, they will stab you in the back. I can’t imagine living here another year. 😞 Do you think it’s worth even staying here? I know it seems silly to pack up everything and leave, to then come back, but I don’t even care. I hate it here. It rains way to much, and it hardly snows. I would rather be home, where summer is summer and winter is winter.
Edit. We are only 12 hours away from our home, which doesn’t seem very far, but we have only been home once since we have been here... I got really bad depression for a few months and would cry all the time, because I miss my mom, dad and grandma... I started school and suppose to finish in December, but I think I can transfer credits if I moved back home.
