      Doesn’t sound like a massive loss, friend. People grow apart, even if they are your blood relatives. The family you choose is far more important, especially if your family gets angry and even writes you off at your lack of equivalent suffering. Americans are so weird about suffering being a positive, “character building” experience for its own sake.

      I’m jealous of you btw, you did what I was too chickenshit to do and you reached the promised land.

      Sorry to hear that.

      I have my family sparsed all over Europe and the world. Just because we are away doesn’t mean we don’t talk with eachother.

      Of course my parents would prefer that we were nearby but they understand.

      Lifebalance is just as important as money in the end.

      Conservativism rots the brain. Imagine disowning your own fucking family simply because they moved to a different place. Disgusting.
