Moving back to Puerto Rico, should I?
I (21F) was born and raised in Puerto Rico. About 6 years ago, my dad moved us to Colorado. And although it’s beautiful in its own way, I dislike here 💔 I hate the weather changes and how lonely my specific town is. It’s mainly filled with retired people that are just looking to settle down. Which is totally fine, but I feel so young and lonely?
I went to visit Puerto Rico in April for my birthday, and I just didn’t want to leave. AT ALL. I missed my island, my people, my friends. I’ve thought of moving back for a while since I’m still young, but I’m worried in certain aspects. Especially economically.
I want to try and get back into college to pursue something (still not sure what) but I’m worried. Plus, when it comes to housing, I only really have friends I have known for years that I could ask. Thing is, 90% of them live with their families still and I of course don’t want to be disrespectful or invasive in anyway, you know? I’m not sure if I could comfortably ask without feeling like I’m bothering them (even though my friends have told me that thy have rooms available).
But I miss Puerto Rico so much, I genuinely felt my happiest when I went back. My depression has hit an all time low in Colorado, and unless I figure out how to fix it here, my heart keeps telling me to go back to my island. What should I do? Any advice??
