I agree with you but people want to hear it’s hard or difficult because in their instance, it is. Either they have baggage, or friends and family or there’s some other anchor but to them, it’s very hard and we shouldn’t demean that experience for them. I am like you, have moved across the world and throughout countries without a problem but I don’t have those ties and my friends and family will visit no matter where I am but that’s not everyones experience.
But once they move once, they’re more free to explore further so we should encourage that sense of wander.
But I understand for some folks ordinary life is some horrible challenge and every basic function and day is very dramatic and stressful for them. I dont’ live my life that way, and that’s a deliberate choice I have made. Because my family is like that, and they are miserable people and I don’t want to be miserable like them, or anyone else who thinks basic life tasks are this horrible burden. and yeah, it’s the internet where having to tie your shoes is some huge cognitive burden for a lot of people here, and the autistic types who can only wear Velcro shoes think those of us who wear shoes with laces are some sort of cruel superhuman conspirators… but that’s because they are incapable of thinking of anything other than from their own incredibly narrow perspective, where every shoe should be Velcro because anything else is too much for them.
But also those folks need to understand that life isn’t necessarily like that. That their over dramatization of ordinary humdrum stuff, is why they are so miserable. If having to call a few vets offices to see if there is an opening for your dog is ‘traumatic’ for you, you need serious help, and you should get it, and you should no longer find calling a vet’s office to be as about as ordinary of an experience as taking a piss or eating a sandwich. Because it’s literally minutes of your time to do any of those things, they are not difficult.
I’ve moved like a dozen plus times in my life, not once was it every super dramatic of awful of stressful. At worst it is mildly annoying when there is a delay, but equating it to something like being in a car accident or dealing with the legal system or other crap that is legitimately difficult and dramatic, is straight up pathetic. I think it also speaks to how wildly spoiled and entitled a lot of folks are.

I’m curious where that comes from, because I did mention being unable to find a vet where I’m moving, but you may have made up the traumatic part in your head? It would explain a lot of things about interactions you’ve had here. Unless you’re referencing something else?

You guys are so weird.
