“I was actually the one who gave the ultimatum. A couple of years after I finished college and still lived in New England, I was with this guy who I LOVED, but I’ve always wanted to live down south (I hate snow. I strongly believe my depression episodes were worse when I lived up north because of the snow). So, when it came time for me to move, I told my ex I wanted him to come with me because I don’t do long distance, and I pretty much figured I would NEVER go back to where we were. The ultimatum boiled down to either move with me, or we will need to break up.”
“He chose to stay, and I still left, and truthfully, it was the best decision we both made. I have grown so much and have a career I love, and while Florida can be a hot mess, I frankly love it here (the weather, the nature, the scenery, all of it). And while he is still the same, he’s happier than he would’ve ever been with me.”
