My dp wants me to move from Belfast to a village in Derbyshire where he lives in the same village as most of his family. It’s a nice place and close to lots of little towns nearby but also a good half hour to derby and a good hour to say a large city like Nottingham.
I just don’t know what to do! I like it in Belfast, it’s where I grew up and I’ve travelled a lot work wise before buying a house here. Will I find it isolating in a village? None of my family live in England so I face a big commute to see them. I’m not particularly close to them but overseas feels a long way.
For context, my hesitation in part is because the relationship was a rocky in the last year and this idea has come about as a way to move forward. If I was madly in love I admit I would probably be straight there but then again maybe that’s also a recipe for disaster if you don’t see yourself as a village person.
Hopeful there might be someone out there who has done a similar move!
