Sorry Nicole, but quitting your job so early doesn't seem like a smart move at all to me and others.

Not trying to be Negative Nelly here, but what if you quit your job, and it turns out that you and Jason don't work out? Then what? You have no house, job, or boyfriend. And in this economy, you can't just come back and expect what you had or more.

You can choose to accept this or ignore it, but I say wait a little bit longer before doing this. You and Jason have only been together for what? A month? And you're already talking about quitting your job and moving across the country for him? I understand Jason is a great guy, but you should be old enough to know that maybe you need to wait another month or so AT LEAST before doing this all so fast. When relationships move this fast, they usually don't work out in the end.

No disrespect to either of you, just saying how a couple of us feel.

I know some people who could use that advice too... especially after being engaged after only a few months.....

What do I have to lose? I am living in the city of my dreams and will probably get a job that pays a lot better than the one I have now. I rather take the risk then think for the rest of my life, what if. If it doesn't work out then I will bounce back. I have before and I can do it again. It wouldn't be the first time I was far away from home without a boyfriend, homeless and broke.

Sometimes you just know.

I can understand your point, however. It's easy to get wraped up in puppy love and go overboard if you are nieve and have little experienre with these kind of things, but once someone's had experience with love and heartache and is confident in what they want and need - they know how it should feel and if the relationship gives them what they want.

What's the saying? I would rather take risks and make mistakes then always wonder what if?

Thanks. A lot of people support my decision.

I hope to be out of here by early spring or end of summer at the least. With or without Jason I am getting out of dead end job and possibly moving to other city. LV has always been as the top of list even before I graduated college.

I'm not saying don't move in with him ever. I'm saying that if you're really gonna do this, you need to think real long and hard (I swear if anyone says TWSS to that, I'm gonna kill them) about this before just doing it. It sounds more like an impulse decision to me right now. I totally agree with you, if you have the chance, go for it. YOLO. But when doing something this risky, I think you need to really just sit down and think about this more than once. There's a lot at stake here. In plus, if you've done this before, you know what it's like. I'm sure it was living hell for you. But what I don't get is, why would you even risk putting yourself in that position again?

Not to make anyone uncomfortable, but I look at this like sex in high school. If he really loves you, he'll wait. I have full faith that Jason really does love you, so I'm sure that if you sat down with him one day and just told him that you'd like to wait a few more months to move over, just to build up your funds, he would understand and wait for you.
