Every time I hear that somebody has had experience living elsewhere in the country I make sure I get their opinion on how they liked it, how long they lived and why they moved.
I recently got into a discussion with a guy who’s EX ended up moving to Texas. He used to live there (and across the entire country) and told her that she won’t like it. Everything is run down, people are quite a bit different, it’s too hot, minority population etc. It doesn’t bother Texans because they are used to it just like we are used to snow here so they look past it.
She ended up nearly going crazy with all the thing that just seem abnormal to a NewEnglander and running back to Mass.
I knew you’d chime in supporting the 518. You’re probably most spoken supporter of the area especially having lived all over the place.
