Search Results: best us city

I currently live in sunny San Diego and have lived here my entire life. I recently graduated from college and am looking to experience a city somewhere else while I still can. I LOVE overcast weather (and rain) so that is not an issue. I tried moving to San Francisco because I love that city but sadly the rent was too damn high.

Things I am looking for: lively city, good music, good craft beer, cheap rent, good food, open-minded people

After looking at various big cities around the US, Seattle seems to be my best option (I hear the rent in Portland is almost as outrageous as SF).

It would be awesome to get some feedback from people to see if Seattle is a good match.

Last April, I tried dating my best guy friend. All of our friends are really close. Like this guy is my best friends brother's best friend. There about a group of 14 of us boys and girls. More boys though. In May he panicked and told me that he had feelings for both my best friend and me. He went far into depth with his feelings, and even talked to her about trying to see if they could be a couple. She told him no and was secretly hooking up with our other best friend for the past 3 years. Over the past months this boy has moved away to a city an hour away. We have not been in contact much but, with the holidays he showed up to a few parties. I am over him and forgive him for what happened last May. At a party he asked me if we could talk one on one. I did he cried to me and apologized and told me he losses sleep over the whole situation to this day. He has even said that he gets nervous around my best friend and couldn't have conversations with her like we do. I don't know if the nervousness means he still has feelings for her. He also texted me two days later and told me he still had feelings for me and asked me if he could text me randomly to get his mind off of things when he is busy at work. This morning he wished me a happy new year and just wants me to be happy. I am wondering if I should give it another shot. In a year and a half I also plan on moving to the city that he is in and my best friend won't be living there so she won't be around. My trust was a little shattered with him but I can see myself by then having it back. Do you think he still has feelings for her? He is the only person that I have fell madly in love with. I have not met anyone else that makes me feel like when I'm with him.
