Be my partner got into graduate school in new York City, i saw it as the perfect chance to escape my hometown.
I’d been in Atlanta my whole life and was Ready for something new. Plus, my partner live in a more rural area, so the first six months of our relationship had been long-day.
In love, eager to leave georgia, and ready to spend more with my partner, I followed to New York. We filled a u-haul with all our belongings, DROVE 18 HOURS TO BROOKLYN, and Moved into a One-Bedroom apartment.
Not long after, they broke up with me. The reality of Living Together for the Remainder of Our Lease Hit Hard.
The Walls Carrude Too Many Memories, and I COULD FINTLY HEAR THE REPETITION OF OUR ARGUMENTS PLAY THROUGH MY EVERY TIME I OPENED THE DOOR TO OUR APPLICATION.
SO, three days after the Split, I filled a backpack, borrowed a suitcase from my ex, and boked a one-way Flight to my hometown.
I Told MySelf The Move Was Temporary, That I Just Just Going Home Unil Our Lease was up. But something in me kneeed i meran than Just Distance – i Needed Restoration.
Once of was home, i built up a community and started taking care of myself

The first thing i did i did i touched down in Atlanta was Google “what do i do after breakup?” AFTER READING MANY Advice Articles, realized I Needed a Good Support System.
SO, I Downloaded Friendship-Making Apps and Reached Out to Old Friends from Middle School. I reconnected with the Friend Group I’d Left Behind the Moved and HAVE TRIED A Community Speed-Friending Event (it was more fun and expert).
Though Moving Back Home Felt Like A Setback at first, Pushed MySelf to Rediscover Atlanta.
I Walked Around the Beltline on Warm afternoons and Spent Evening at Local Food Festivals and Parties. The City’s Sunny Weather Made It Easy for me to embrace the outdoors, practicing yoga at Local Parks and Taching Long Daily Walks.
I had a lot of work to do, so i went to therapy, spent with my family, and took myself on solo dates. I GOT A GYM MEMBERSHIP AND STARTED TO FOCUS ON MY FITNESS Journey.
At first, I was just hoping to thread my days, but i soon started to enjoy the stillness and solitude to speech so much by mySelf. For the first time in years, I was alone in a way that that didn’t Feel lonely.
At Last, i Saw MySelf and My Hometown Through a New Lens

The Experience Tought with That Home Isn’t Always Something to Escape – It Can Be Something to Rediscover.
Moving Back to Atlanta Helped with See the Beauty in My Community and City, and it also made with the beauty with myself. It was nice to focus on my own needs and desire, and realized i was who with or part partner.
In Many Ways, I Wasn’t JUST RETURNING TO MY HOMETOWN WEN I MOVED. I was returning to myself.
