Buckle up friends. I moved from Pa to Texas with my girlfriend of 5 years. We lived together for a year with her parents there. We rescued a beautiful pup, I found a career I enjoy and life was good. Our relationship however was not. She went to visit family while I stayed behind to work and while there, she ended our relationship via text. So, I moved out, closer to work and life was okay. I was heartbroken and lost but OK. 2 weeks ago, I get a call from an unknown number. It's her, saying that her mother put our dog down. Now I'm here in Texas and I have lost everything that I had worked towards for that last year. My girlfriend of 6 years, my dog which was my best friend for the year we had her. Thankfully, my landlord and his wife are savior's and have been kinda watching over me to make sure I'm okay. I came home this week to visit my family and I quickly realized something scary. When I return to Texas, I'm not returning to anything significant. No family, no friends, no dog, no significant other, not even a fuck buddy. Just my job and my landlord. I'm now questioning if moving home is a bad move? I have my whole family here, a few friends who I adore and I miss the mountains. But, I don't want to feel like I'm giving up. I've worked so hard but my entire world that I built in Texas was washed away within a month and I'm now totally free, to do anything in the world. In summary: my last month has brought me to mental rock bottom. Is moving home to recover, build some money up and focus on myself a bad thing? Or is that giving up?
