    I am, are you moving far away from your parents?
     
    I'm sorry mom and dad, but I hate your guts.

    I'm going to move far, far away from them as I can. Hopefully, they don't send me an invitation for a family cook-out.

    I'll even move to Japan if I have to!
     
    BH- What's wrong with your parents?
     
    I'm already away from my parents (about 2.5 hours, actually) due to college, but whenever I'm out, I'll probably be about 1-3 hours away. I love having my independence, but I'd also like to be able to go see my parents whenever I want to.
     
    I don't hate my parents, and it's expensive to move far. I'll probably latch onto them still while I'm in college for money, but when I move out, I think I'll stay close. No real reason except it's easy.
     
    I live in New Jersey.
    The first time I move, if I get accepted into the school I want to go to, I will be moving to Utah.
    Following graduation of college, I will be moving to California.

    I'm going to say yes.
     
    Yes, I will have to next year for university regardless of whether I want to or not. I don't really want to go to the university here, so it'll be me moving out around February 2010.
     
    I probably will, unless my family happens to move halfway across the country to the state where the university I want to go is, I'd end up going there once I get my first degree here...which will be around two years or so from now. I would definitely love to experience life on my own, or just away from my family if I'm able to, even if I don't end up enrolling at the school I've had in mind. I wouldn't mind making it a long distance move, could definitely use some space from my family. Of course this is all under the assumption that a load of money is dropped on me, allowing me to live on my own, or at least move in with someone else.

    I would like to move out, but my Dad has health problems these days, so I'm still here to help him out if need be. The same is for my Mom maybe a bit later. She's starting to get cataracts in her eyes.
     
    As of right now I have the option of moving away. However I still depend on my parents to help me through school. So I'm sticking near by until I can fully support myself enough to live completely independent from them.

    When I do decide to move away, I'm opting towards a state with less of a crazy weather pattern (I live in Oklahoma). Not sure where yet.
     
    I went on a whim to live with my brother on the opposite coast from my parents. Incidentally a few weeks after moving in, I found a job and have stayed since.
     
    I wouldn't say "far" away, but I'd like to get a least a good distance away from here. As much as I love my parents, I don't really want to live near them. :[
     
    I'm only about two and a half hours away from home right now, but I still feel so far away. I was hesitant about moving away for college when I first got here, and now...I guess I'd rather be closer to home. I love my parents a lot, and as much as it might be weird for a 18 year old guy to say this, they don't annoy me at all. I wasn't tired of them in high school and I'm certainly not tired of them now that I'm away. I don't want to live with them now that I'm out of the house, but if I could stay in upstate New York and get a good job, I wouldn't mind at all.
     
    I wouldn't mind living near my father really, I have a lot of respect for him.

    Now my mother, I wouldn't mind moving away from...but it'd probably like just the next town over or something. I'm not stupid nor am I cruel. I sincerely love both of my parents, no matter what they do.
     
    I really like where i live, an will probably move away 30 minutes? but i wont wanna get harrased anyway by them. But there 63 and 67 ( grandparents) so they probably wont live that long.
     
    I don't hate my parents, I like where I live even though it's not what I'm supposed to be but I only move away once at ours.
     
    When I went to college, I was a whole ocean away from them until they moved back to the States in December. I survived, but at the same time, it was sad, knowing that I couldn't see them during the breaks.

    Once I can actually handle living on my own (which god knows when that'll be), I'll probably live somewhat nearby. Not quite sure how nearby, but at least in the state. I've spent almost all of my life living far, far away from the people I love, so for once in my life, I'd like to be close. My parents are cool anyway. They're not going to randomly bug me; it'll probably be the other way around.

    It's the major reason that I'm not going back to Nebraska once I can actually afford college. I enjoyed living there, but I'd rather be within a few hour's drive than a day's drive. :/
