[quote=Anonymous]DH and I have thought many, many, many times about moving closer to family. This past year has driven home that we need to stay a comfortable distance. We have grown away from our families. I am an only child, and was never close to extended family. So, its less of an issue for me. DH has siblings and a large extended family. At one point years ago we seriously thought about and tried to move closer to family (both families are relatively close to each other). We rely on my salary and I would have to take a serious pay cut to move closer to extended family. I seriously doubted that DH's family would actually help. They talk a lot about family, but I haven't actually seen them acting like a family beyond their own immediate family bubble. This past year with the pandemic and the volatile political and social environment has made us realize that moving closer to family wouldn't work for the people we are now. [/quote]
