Do you live with the feeling of constantly feeling unsettled?
I am not sure what it is. I have never quite felt 100% settled. Every town or city I visit (even abroad) I think its a better place to live even though its possibly not. Im not sure what it is and just wondered if anyone else had the same experience.

- That's me and i can say it's not a good feeling because you never get satisfied.
- Hey, you'll be settled down one day, don't worry about it.
- no, thankfully..
- No but I really love to travel and can feel comfortable in other places.
- yes.. i lived on a farm for most of my life.. and would be happier if i still did..
- I feel the same way. It's like a pit in the middle of my torso. I don't know whether it's money or my job or not being satisfied with my home. Actually...I think it is all of the above. It's a horrible feeling.
- I had to move out in order to go to university. It's in a town about 1 hour way by train by my hometown. Truth is I do have that feeling that I'm not settled. I mean... I have that feeling that I'll go back there. I, however, must stay here for 4 years or more. Don't know.... what can I say.... Maybe it's because it's so close to my hometown.
- well i've had this obsession with the thought of living in either america or canada for about 3 years now..i'm from the uk and only been to the u.s twice..but something about it i find fascinating! it's ironic though as most americans i speak to would give their right arm to live in europe..i don;t mind where i live, it's pleasant enough i just want to experience a completely different place and i find in the u.s there is so much more diversity and SPACE.. you could say i have "wanderlust" in a big way, lol..also i avoid relationships at the moment because there's so many guys i like and know that most relationships at this age don't last (i'm 19) and i get worried about the thought of building my whole life around someone when they could just split up with me at the drop of a hat. my friends, on the other hand, seem to be obsessed with being in relationships and are nearly always convinced that their current guy/girl is "The One"- with some of them i think more power to them because i know they haven't just settled for anyone and they make a great couple, however i really don't understand this obsession with marriage and motherhood when they are only 19! i'm not knocking people for having the dream of having a family, it's just jeez..slow down..you have a decent amount of time to find your future husband, and who knows even then if you'll end up regretting it? ok this is veering totally off point now but seriously i have a big time fear of committment and an intense desire to travel..you're only young, free & single once! so i wouldn't worry about it too much...
- I feel like that a bit. I've been to Australia a few times and keep wanting to move over there as there seems to be a better lifestyle and standard of living. Also I'm not particularly happy where I am and feel that I have a lack of support from family and friends. I'm working on feeling happy within myself before I take off abroad though. I think when somewhere is new it seems exciting and being stuck in one place for a while can feel like a rut. It's ok to be a nomad.
