Well I've lived in the same smaller city for most of my life and have been very content, but there just isn't any work here and I need money. Basically my girlfriend pushed me to move away when her parents moved away and left her here with me. We're living at my mom's place while she's away because I got laid off and couldn't afford to live on my own any longer.

My girlfriend's parents said she should move to the bigger city they're in right now and they would rent a bigger place so she and I could stay with them. I hate the idea of living with her parents because they like to be heavily involved with their kids and her dad is very... needy I guess. So it would be me, her, her mom/dad and her 22 year old brother(me and my gf are 20).

The original plan was to save for a few months and then move over there or somewhere else, but that got thrown out the window and my girlfriend dropped the bomb that said she's going in a month with or without me. I was pissed off at first, but decided to just go for it because at least I could find work over there and go to school. I'm kinda stressin' about it all, but figure after a couple months or so of saving we'd find our own place and it'd be all good.

So basically I've got a month, then I'll be moving in with my girlfriend's parents and into a bigger city. I really hate the whole girlfriend's parents thing... They're the type of people who, like I said, are very needy for attention and can't let go I guess. They spend their time sitting around in the living room watching tv together and getting their kids to do things for them. My family is more the give each other space type and everybody does there own thing so I guess I'm just not used to it, maybe.

Anyways, I'm sorta getting into a rant here. What I wanted advice on is friends and whatnot in a new city. I'll be leaving all my friends back in the old town and I'm not very good at making new... "Hey, feel like hangin' out?" kinda friends, especially when I have absolutely no one to go to bars with or chill with.

Any advice or whatnot about the whole situation would be great. I'm still sorta stressed about the whole thing and just need to type.
