Is this really happening?

Um I don't really know where to post this so I'm posting it here.

So a couple months back my dad took this new job and it was all great. But a couple weeks ago things started changing. My dad was doing so well that they want him to take over the company. One small problem it's headquarters are in Texas. I live in Washington. And my parents also started asking me questions like what would you do if we move and so on. A couple days ago I was on the computer and the browser was still up. I looked at it. It was a relocation website for Texas! And who ever was on the computer was looking at three houses in the area of the company's headquarters!

I really don't want to move. Ive lived here all my life and all my friends are her. I don't know what I would do without them or Washington itself. :(

Well, I'm sorry to say that you can't force your dad to stay in Washington. I understand where you're coming from. All your friends will be far away from you and you won't be able hang out with them and talk as much as you do now. I say you can talk to your parents about so they how you feel. If you end up moving, try getting every way you can stay in touch with your friends so that you can call them or what ever you can so that you can at least have some time with them. I know it won't be the same as being in Washington but you'll have some sort of communications with them. Especially the ones close to you. Good luck. :)

Moving is never easy as a child I moved where my dads work took him france italy spain ect and sure it was good meeting new people and seeing new places and learning but it is really sad to leave all your new made friends behind and it is really tuff, I suggest talking to your parents about this and see how it goes but think your dad is probably doing this so you can have a better life.

If you want to talk just PM me or VM me. I am on most days at various times.

Moving is not an easy thing for anyone. Sadly companies relocate all the time and unfortunately we as kids/teens whatever dont have a choice when it come to the relocation of a parents job. But things happen. If in the case that you do have to move prepare yourself and prepare your friends let them know maybe they will throw you a goodbye party get their contact info and keep in touch I know it can be hard but sometimes life throws hardships at us moving away from the life you love is one of them. Good Luck with everything :)

I've had to move many times already also, since I was 6 yrs old we moved like 8 times, I'm 17 now and we finally been in the same place for about 2 years. It sucks, but you will meet new cool friends, and keep in touch with a handful of your friends from where you moved from. Think of it as a new beginning, you're parents are trying to do the best they can for you, so just go with it, you'll be okay dude.

I've moves around all my life. I know it isn't easy, but it's your parents decision. Talk to them and tell them how you feel, there really isn't anything else you can do. Try to keep on touch with your friends if you do move. That will help you tremendously.

Yes, it is really happening. Why are you so anti moving? New jobs, new headquarters, awesome. Do you not like the Texas lifestyle? I wouldn't either, but, still.
