My love Or My City?

Me on the roof of my NYC apt

I moved to LA for my relationship. I didn’t want to, but I left New York, the city I knew and loved all of my adult years, for the man I love…But I never gave up my apartment, I couldn’t let go of New York City completely, but I can’t hold onto it forever. A decision must be made.

I’ve tried to not hate life in LA but it’s so different from what I’m used to. For one thing it’s so easy to get around in Manhattan that cars are unnecessary…
