On my relocation journey through the U.S. I have noticed a few things we should all be wary of:
Moving to a city that is a slower pace for you and being alone. You will be subject to loneliness often and may choose men that you'd otherwise not consider because of that. If you've never been alone or lived alone this may be really difficult for you. Many men from these areas find women who are from metropolitan areas fascinating and it's a win for them to attract such a worldly woman but will slowly turn down your voltage so that you will become like the women in his town and generally stuck in the house with him and his family. The mind control will be slow because you need to trust him and love him and then it begins from questioning your attire to how engage with others. Your time will be spent with him and his family and you will find yourself engaging with other women / friends less and less.
The mind hive of local women. Women in certain regions are less outgoing and more competitive for men (pick me on steroids). These women do not wear makeup or nice clothes and dress themselves down for the satisfaction of the men they are dating - to cause less attention to themselves. Visiting a restaurant to meet new women, one of them suggested I dress down because they don't do "that" in this particular area. Of the 12 women not one spoke up. And for them, dressing up was a sweater, skirt, and booties...my next point ---->
Be very careful not only of the men you meet, but WOMEN. So many women lure other women into traps and use any information about you to entrap you. When you are new and meeting people be mindful of where you are going and refrain from night time activity until you are more familiar with your new locale and activities in that area. Try meeting people during the day.
Some women are coerced into poly relationships and they are required to find the third party. Understand and accept that some women are there for sexual purposes just as men are. Be careful whom you have a drink or break bread with and watch your drink/food!
Some women are sexual predators and want to turn out a heterosexual women in the same way some gay men seek the same opportunity with hetero men
Women are traffickers too
Be careful not to take group trips with women you have no prior friendships especially out of the country where the laws may be lax and your friends and family may have a hard time coming to your rescue
This is great advice, thank you!
As an older woman getting ready to relocate, I appreciate your insights.
