moving

I just moved into an apartment back with my mother like two weeks ago and she's looking for another apartment now. Im always moving. Last year I moved about five times between september and december alone. The school I just finished is the only one Ive been in for longer than a year. All my friends are on here and the few I had offline I either cant talk to or somethings happened. My best friend actually is the person who got me into cutting at one point but stopped me later. Like a year after she did I started for a short time but have stopped now. I hate moving but theres always some reason we have to. The best friend I cant talk to anymore about things, she doesnt understand and I worry about her too much.

What sort of feedback are you looking for?

I just wonder if others have gone though moving alot as well. Everyone I meet have barely moved anf when they do its like one of the first times they have.

I'm moving for my 3rd time this year. And this isn't just to a new apartment across the street or other side of town. Over last christmas break, I moved from Georgia with my mom to come here to Florida to live with my dad and finish the rest of my school year.

Well he's in the military and they're stationing him for 3 years in Virginia so now we're moving there. My house was just sold last night.

3 new states in one year.

Idk. Im open to the change. I always look at it optimistically as a new chance to start over. I can be whoever I want to be at this new school.

But the downside of it is sort of obvious-I know absolutely no one in the state so I start over from scratch with friends and there's always the chance that no one will really match my personality. But I'm not really worried about it. I have a very flexible personality that actually adapts to the kind of people around me. I quickly pick up their sense of humor, their expressions and feelings for certain topics and I somehow mold myself to fit in. Its not easy and I don't exactly love it but I've figured out that I'm not really changing myself because that's MY ability...i'm staying true to MY personality and myself when I fit in. So it doesn't really bother me.

The things that really bother ME is the fact that my sense of direction is..well..lame at best. And I get lost really quickly and I'm too shy to ask for help. And I've learned about myself that my shyness can depress me the most because I find myself wishing to see someone, ANYONE, that I may know, even my worst enemy if God would allow, just to have someone to talk to. I'm usually silent for the first week or so and that's the part that hurts.

But Maybe you should look at things more optimistically..I KNOW its hard but occupy your time, keep yourself happy. It only has to be as bad as you make it out to be.

i moved alot.now my mom has promised we wont moved any more.but she said that the last 2 times.shes been married 3 times.this year i switched schools twice.everytime i start over and i have to make new friends.people say it must be fun having many friends in different places,but its not.you never see the ones you made since by then youve already moved again.
i guess what i have to say is just be optimistic for the future when you can buy a house and never have to move if you dont want to.always keep up hope for the future.

I wish I at least knew where I'd be in when school starts up. I just moved all the stuff I wanted from my sister’s house (my moms old house where I lived for the last 9 years) to my dad’s house. If I live with my dad theirs a slim chance I can continue going to the same school as my friends, otherwise I might end up going to another school a town away from it that I don't like. Friends would be the only reason to stay, so if I go to the other one, I might as well go to my moms. Both my sister’s house, and my dads are in Michigan, same county too.

My mom lives in Alabama, she moved down there over four months ago. She left my brother and me with my sister (she's 20) so we could finish up school. My mom easier to talk to then my dad, and even a town away I feel like I'd probably see my friends as much as I would if I were in Alabama. I’m shy; I don’t like using the phone, although IM and E-mail is fine. Now the problem is my dad is good at laying down guilt traps... Correction, my step mom, and step dad are the ones who are good at that. My dad's good at making excuses...

So I feel trapped between three houses, three schools, and have no clue where I'll end up.

It's "My chouse" but my chouse lays on what I'm willing to tell people, and what school I end up going to. I would hate to break either parents heart. My friends are constantly moving away, and only this year have I been able to make friends I can actually talk to. I DON’T want to lose them. Nine years in the same school district, and only in the 9th yar do I finally find real friends.

I typed that out, so if it fits here or not, I am going to post it.
