The catch to all of this: the grandparents said that if I wanted to move to Texas they would let me live in one of their duplexes for free, pay for all my college tuition and buy me a car.

But I moved from Texas for a good reason. And that town they live in...EW.




As much as I'm sure Texas sucks, you can still get a good education there. For FREE. AND have your housing and transportation paid for.

Just think of it this way...you'll be in debt, paying off your college education for the next 20-30 years if you don't.

Personally I think you'd be crazy not to take their offer, as long as Kevin is willing to move back to Texas also...

Hi Adrug, thanks for your feedback. Obviously this is a decision that is somewhat agonizing to make because we moved to Massachusetts a year ago specifically because we wanted to live "on our own" and "get independent" and escape their somewhat pervading influence. Plus we knew a lot of cool people in the northeast and thought it might be fun.

The thing is, the duplex in question is Kevin's already, in his name, through a partnership that he shares with his grandfather. So it's not exactly like we would be mooching off them, I guess. The money for college and the car would be coming from the same partnership, one that Kevin already owns 49% of. (grandfather owns 51%)

I guess...it's an amazing opportunity that I know would be wonderful for me because it would free up so many things, so many survival concerns that clog my consciousness. It would make life very, VERY much easier if we moved back. I would be with all of my family and some of my old friends. No major expenses and paid college. Plus after I finish with community college I could easily transfer to a university out of state. Plus Texas is great for picking wild shrooms.

There are a few bad things. I'd be moving back to the town where I went to high school and had very negative experiences, but I have to recognize that maybe the reason I hate that town is because of the mindstate I was in at the time. I am in a completely different state of mind now then I was years ago, when I lived in that town. I feel kinda like any place I live can be home, because home is where the heart is and I am always here, now, no matter where I am. So maybe that little town could be a positive influence on me, now that I am in more of a positive frame of mind. But one thing that would bother me is that I would be leaving my friends and all the great connections I've made up here, too.

But I also have to do what's best for my future. I'm nearly 25 and time is ticking. I could stay here and do everything the hard way and it would be a difficult struggle, having to juggle both a rent payment, living expenses and full time college. Or I could listen to opportunity knocking and open the door with graciousness.

It's so difficult to tell, but...I feel like I know what I must do. I am just a little hesitant.
