Rules For Following a Girlfriend to Miami

Posted in Travel  by admin on January 25th, 2010

Joshua had such great hesitations about moving to Miami, Florida. That is, he had great hesitations about it at the beginning. His girlfriend of two years, they met during the junior year of college, had landed a great job there in an advertising firm and at first Joshua thought he could handled, and possible even enjoy a long distance relationship, but those feelings quickly disappeared after Jackie vanished from his everyday existence. Everything suddenly seemed dull to Josh, who had always been active, social and even the life of the party.

After a couple of months he confessed to his friend Steve that he was actually considering following Jackie to Miami and Steve warned him that it was a bad idea. He gave him the standard recommended and positive advice that he should never follow a person to another city but only move there if he found potential and possibility for himself. This didn’t sit well with Joshua who grew increasingly dissatisfied with his job and uncomfortable at home. He thought back to the initial trip he and Jackie had taken and their stay in one of the Florida Miami hotel resorts to find Jackie an apartment. The two of them had a great time on that trip and Joshua began to feel he could be happy in Miami.

Finally the opportunity arose, a restaurant management position became open and Joshua was able to request a transfer. He was nervous about making the decision, but suddenly knew it was right and confidently presented it to his regional manager. He then called Jackie and told her what he had done and she seemed extremely happy. She told him that he could stay with her while he looked for a place of his own. This kind of surprise Josh who had just assumed he would move in with his girlfriend. He immediately asked Steve about it who told Josh it was a good thing and that if he insisted on moving to Miami he had to establish his own life and friends there as soon as possible. Joshua didn’t think it would be much of a problem, though he had to admit that Jackie was the real reason he was going and he wanted to spend his time with her. However, he promised Steve he would branch out and find his own life, which Steve assured him was the only way his relationship with Jackie could make it.
