I moved from Italy to California two years ago for university and now I’m at the point where I need to start looking for a job. My boyfriend is in Italy and my project has always been to eventually go back and live with him. Now I don’t know if I want that anymore. He’s the person of my life and all my family and friends are in Italy, but I don’t want to leave California. I’m attached to this idea of big opportunities I have here in California. I belong both here and there, I have the feeling I’m giving up on my future if I go back. Also I feel it would be somewhat a personal failure to go back to the small italian city where my boyfriend lives. Has anyone had a similar experience?

    Oh boy… this is literally a romcom situation you’re in. Good luck OP.

    I’m making the opposite decision. Going to the Netherlands for a masters in tech, but forgoing possibly earning a lot more I’d be making even after a 2 year degree. I don’t know what’s right either.

    But it sounds like you have hesitations. If you think you’ll regret one decision more…
