I've lived in the city for my entire life. I hate the all the people ontop eachother, litter, noise, smells, dysfunction, snobbishness, traffic etc. I don't understand how seemingly most people want to move in the opposite direction. No, they are not hotbeds for muh crime wave and no, I am not paranoid or racist. The only time where the city is more or less livable is during summer break when half the population is being a plague somewhere else.

I can't wait to gtfo of here and live somewhere rural. Preferably somewhere so boring that it sees minimal tourism.

I felt lonely when I moved to the mountains. I hate the feeling where if I wanted to do anything I had to spend an hour winding down then back up the mountain, just to get to the small town. Then if I wanted to meet up in the actual city it's half my day.

Also, I hate mountain folk drama. "Skeeter was using Cooter's water, everyone at Maggie's bar is pissed" or "now Billups is riding his atv over the corner of Jeanie's acreage, fetch my rifle." Such petty stuff and it never stops. And then if you stand out in any way, that gets rolled into it.
