[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The easier and more relaxed vibe in the Midwest as compared to DC or the east coast in general is a real and obvious difference and one of the reasons Dh and I moved from DC to the Midwest when we had kids. We now live in an UMC-UC area and you’d think the stress and pressure would be similar given the similar socioeconomics but it’s much more chill and laid back. DH (east coast native) didn’t believe me (Midwest native) when we lived in DC that it could be that different but once we moved he now talks about it all the time and how surprised he was.[/quote]
^yes, I love the Midwest relaxed feeling. It’s like you can just enjoy your life and free time instead of always being busy and striving. [/quote]

I don't feel like I am always busy and striving.  That's on you if you yield to outside pressure[/quote]

+1. I live in DC and never feel like I’m
striving. I also am around friends who are similarly relaxed. There are actually a lot of us around. I feel like it’s more a case that you don’t notice relaxed people like this because you are insecure and so only paying attention to people who you think are somehow better than you.[/quote]
