I first went to Spain when I was 20 on a uni assignment. I fell in love with it & went straight back after graduation. I stayed for a year then went back to UK. Why? Not sure. Because I only planned to stay for a year...
Back in the UK i met a guy & we were together for 2 years before he cheated. I went back to Spain for another 2 years and left because my job had stopped paying me & I became depressed. I felt the city was my 'home' in my heart, loved the culture etc but thought I'd better back to UK to get a better job.
I got a job almost double my salary in the UK quickly, much to my surprise. Ive had a better standard of living & got paid for some theatre performances & booked again before lockdown. I was also due to go on a date with a guy the work of lockdown/who I still like & have kept in touch with throughout the pandemic. But who knows if that will pick up.
But I don't know. I'm late 20s now. I think about things opening up again & all I can think about is being back in Spain. About half my friends are there now. I think if I went back to live I'd never come back to the UK permanently again.
I just....dont know what to do. With all the coming and going I dont seem to be making the right choices and I'm scared of waking up one day and regretting where I am.
