Closing the distance challenges

[sunnymess54]

The plan is to move to where my SO lives in September and finally close the distance. Well out of curiosity I did some more research on housing where he lives and its 2X the amount as from the area I will be moving from. I am anxious thinking of everything! What if we can't find some place before we move? Moving 2500 miles away seems daunting. We will still be in the US so we don't have to deal with visas or anything. It's just moving in general. Im scared

Sit down and talk with you SO about your worries and concerns. You are in this as a couple. He can probably alleviate a lot of your concerns since he lives there and has all the details. He's been able to make it work for him, so if you have 2 incomes coming in, you should be able to adjust just fine.

In 2008 I moved from NH to CA. The expenses in CA were almost double for everything. I also had to deal with a sales tax and income tax, which I had never had to worry about before. Financially, we were able to make it all work though.

That's how it is with us! Im moving from ME to CO and the expenses there are horrible and everything has wait list some up to 24 months. I have expressed my concerns a little bit because he was at work but will talk to him more later and he like always assured me everything would be okay! Im naturally just anxious because its such a big move. Thank you for your reply 😁

OP, your fear and trepidation are understandable.
