Have you ever moved to a different part of the country/planet when single, in spite of not knowing any other people in the new area?
How did it go starting from scratch, was it a good move or did you later regret it? |

Not quite but I did move to Manchester when my (now ex) husband was serving overseas for months on end. New area, new job - so I pretty much started from scratch.
I’m lucky that I am into phys because I joined a cycling and a tri club and met people through that as well as work - which was in Liverpool so no one was local.

I think if you are thinking of doing this, that you should really put in the work to create support networks if you aren't moving with one already built in. Join clubs, classes, communities, work to meet people so it doesn't become isolating. It can be really exciting to explore etc or it can be miserable and lonely depending on what you put into it. |

I've done it a few times at ages 19, 21, 26.
Would definitely advise as above, to join a club or actively seek out connections.
I was extremely isolated at 19, not much better at 21 but made connections at work, at 26 i moved again and volunteered and societied myself into exhaustion. 
Now at 40 something I'm a lot more balanced and would not fear a long distance move to start again. |
