Love or my life or London???
48 Answers
I am 23 and madly in Love.
I have been with my partner for over 4 years and love him to bits. One day I want to marry him and know he feels the same way.
However I've alwasy wanted to move to London-just to experience the life there as so different to rest of England.
I don't know many people there, but have looked on sites and there's plenty of rooms going for rent.
I am a keen writer and actress so thought I could go and try break into that.
I also have savings and bar experience so would hopefully be able to get a job to keep me afloat.
I really want to go there, and want my boyfriend to come with me but he wont. He says he hates it and wouldn't want to.
He says I'm being selfish, and if i go then he will go to spain to live with his mum, and may stay there for good!
I'm really happy with our lives at the moment but feel I really want to do this.
Do I just sit back and let London go buy, but may regret it when older, or do I go and jeopodise my relationship. Our relationship may last, but if it doesn't then I feel I will regret that...

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.23 and yearning for the bright lights.....ur love is unfulfilled! Go for it, London is a wonderful experience and who knows what doors will open for you? You're young and the bf is already controlling with his demands.
There's a song here somewhere about a bloke who will go anywhere his woman wants.......hmmmm; it'll come to me....think its Marvyn Gaye.

London has a very strong attraction for some 20 somethings. I worked in central London for a while and when you're young it can be exhilerating. Both my sons adore London. They love the culture, museums, galleries and the buzz. If they have negatives I never hear them.
They didnt have to choose between location or love but they both explained that living in London, until the novelty wears off at least, was a must do.
My younger son lives in a cupboard, pays an ungodly amount in rent and is as happy as the proverbial pig in poop.... I'm sure given the same dilemma as you jenniprice we would have gone anyway.........

Thank you for all your comments, some people have made really good points.
I have spoken to my boyfriend(even sent him this link) and we have had a chat about it.
I do have a friend who is moving down next year to be with her boyfriend that lives there already, and she has said I am welcome to stay with them.
So we have decided that I will go stay with her for a month or two-just to get it out of my system.
Then if like some say I may hate it and come home contented that have done it, but if I love it then will have to cross that bridge when come to it.
(I have even said that my boyfriend can visit me and love it too, but he's says doubt it!)
Thanks again for eveyone's advice, like say I do love my boyfriend but want to experience life aswel, so hopefully this way I will be able to live my dream but also stay with my boyfriend!
