Is 25 too late to start over?

[fairy!]

ie, move to a new town, get a new job, make new friends etc?

Too late at 25!!  Never.   I would still do it now at 58, and I am being honest.  Would love to go abroad to live one day.  Life is for living and it's never too late to make changes whilst we are in reasonable health physically and mentally.  Life is too short to stagnate

No!!!  I am 25 and about to move to Brighton - can't wait!  I love moving to new places (have moved 3 times since finishing uni) and find you always make new friends and keep the old ones.  Where are you off to?

[Romeo]

Of course not! It's not too late at 105, let alone 25.

Not too far away from where I am now... I'm thinkin maybe Milton Keynes... bigger place = more jobs... (i wanna be a photographer & there's not a lot in my little hilly billy town!) It's the not knowing anyone thing that scares me tho!

Well that's my mind made up Lisax... MK here I come!  Ha! :-)

good god no! go - you'll have a fab time, and you can always go back if you really hate it - or try somewhere else.  I'm 30 and i'm thinking about moving abroad for a while.  Join some clubs, get work behind a bar, you'll soon meet people x

[purpose]

Certainly not!

I am 35 and am planning a big move from the South East coast to Glasgow within 2 years.

Can't wait!!!

Good luck to you :0)

i moved countries (well, scotland to england) when i was 29 as my fiancee's mum was ill.  i have a great job, stacks of friends and have owned several houses.  i couldn't return to my home town as my own parents and sister have since moved.  it was daunting at first but also a great adventure, go for it!

When you decide that you're too late for anything in life then it means you're giving up living.

[undercovers]

I'm 26 and just moved to brighton, quit my job in London (11 more days in the office) and am retraining to follow a different career path! Go for it - have fun - you are never to late - lifes what you make of it etc (",)

[metagirl]

moved from sunny California to London when I was 25 - its tough, but you learn alot from the experience. hopefully, more good than bad.

[Otrere]

It's never too late.

[missmooncat]

I agree with everyone Its Never Too Late!

I`d love to move from where iam to country or by sea its lack of money thats stopping me.If i don`t get my finances sorted till i`m 80 I still will move!

[Steve_Luts]

Never!! I moved from the Midlands to sunny(!?) Reading when I was 24, not knowing anybody - came here for my first proper job out of uni....its geographically 100 miles (not much compared to some of the posts here I know) but may as well be a million miles in terms of the friends I have made and the career opportuniteis opened up. If anything its been too succesful - I have met so many people that now I find I spread myself too thinly across a wide group of mates, when sometimes I'd just like a bit of peace and quiet!

My motto is 'regret what you didn't do, not what you did', so go for it, you'll hopefully have a blast. Good luck...let the AB'ers know how you get on?

[gemmabe]

Go for it doll! I am thinking about doing the same thing at 21 but not sure if I have the guts! 25 is still so young, be optimistic and make it happen...not to take my own advice!

[tubeway]

Whatever you are thinking of doing - go for it. I am 43 and have just completed training for a completely different new job - I am getting a lot of job satisfaction - I help people - and I am loving it.

[fairy!]

Thanks guys.  I'm now looking for my dream job all over, instead of just my home town, so if I find it, I'll move!  Fingers crossed!! x
