I Hate Small Towns

Been here for about six months. Still feel watched and though I have made a friend who has lived here her whole life (and dislikes it deeply) and another whom has as well and didn't take to me not wanting anything serious with him and has taken to not talking to me. So while I have made more people to talk to I still hate it and I miss my true home! My big cities and being able to pass by unaccounted for when I wished and being the center of attention when I cared for it with the people I chose. I hate that people still know my every move.

Welcome to small town living where the lives of others provides a distraction to take away from the tedium if their own lives.

@IBHappy As entertaining as gossiping is i only do so with my best friend and it never truly affect the opinion or reputation of a person due to my opinion not being and misconstrued thoughts being spread like it is here..

To many nosy busy bodies with nothing better to do with their lives. It's a sad situation. I pity them.

I too had to move from the city to a small town about 6 months ago and I agree with everything you say about it
silver1sil · 26-30, F
@RoxClymer glad I'm not the only one and while I enjoy the scenery and fresh air. I'd only like it for a small amount of time not to live.

It can be just as bad in big cities if you have obsessive stalker neighbours.

@LaCrazyCucumber be that as it may. In the city I didn't have the issue... I currently do and nothing has changed besides my location.... and the nosy people
LaCrazyCucumber · 46-50, M
@silver1sil Yeah nosy people are almost as bad as stalkers. It's a very fine line. If you do need to stay there for few years it may settle down maybe they'll grow bored of spying on the 'new girl'.

Sounds like the Stepford Wives. Be careful...
silver1sil · 26-30, F
@MarkPaul which part exactly ?

@silver1sil "...that people still know my every move."

That's the way it is in small towns. People will help when you need it but they're also up in your business when you might not want them to be.

Small town life is all I've known. It's like with everything, there's good and bad.

@Nat15 I'm not going to lie I doubt I'll like it anymore than I do. So it'll sooner be I get to go home

How small of a town?

I sort of miss rural life... though we were out of town a bit and not necessarily in touch with most of the folk around. My father was a bit of a hermit. But I miss the space and just being able to go out and have a bonfire and being able to ride a bike down the street without constant fear of being clipped by a passing car. I've never lived in a big city though. Where I am at is like a mix between suburban and urban sprawl. Very developed but also spread out instead of built up. =/
