[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m 40F, recently laid off, married with three kids (11, 8, and 2).  We live in an area I really dislike - moved here for DH’s job several years ago but he has been fully remote since Covid - but have a gorgeous house here.  I’ve had a very hard time finding any community and it’s a place where you’re inside half the year due to cold and snow, and it gets harder on me every year.

I’ve been interviewing with a company for a role that read as tailor-made for me, and they’ve moved me through the process very quickly: I would be making more than I made in my previous role and it’s a great opportunity for my career.  DH is senior in his company and there’s no indication they will go back to in person: maybe a meeting every few months.

This new role has required on-site presence several days a week in a state I would *love* to live in, with a comparable cost of living to what we pay now.  The company I’m interviewing with offers generous relocation; they’re flying me out for the final round next week. But I recognize that uprooting and relocating will be a huge change for all of us.  How do you go about making such a big decision?

You’re inside half the year due to cold weather and you live in WV?  WTF?  is there something wrong wtih you that makes you unnaturally susceptible to the cold?  Just dress warmly.  Good Lord.[/quote]
