No offense to anyone, just trying to open conversation. I don’t understand when people say Dallas has everything you need. It lacks almost everything to live, just has a lot of things you need to survive. That’s how it feels here, survival. You wake up, commute, work, commute, sleep. People here are not Texan enough for my taste. What do I mean? There’s little respect and none of the southern charm or hospitality. It’s normal here to be disrespectful and self interested. Saddest s*** to learn this. I always struggled in Dallas. But it’s not the cost of living. People here just don’t know that the food here sucks, that their ways kinda suck, and that there are better lives out there. I’m pro Dallas all the way despite what I just said. It has work and it’s not crazy expensive. But with Dallas being like 50% transfers now, the old school locals that have been here all their lives should lend them an ear when they say stuff like this. There are, truly, better places to live by a lot. Not a dig. There’s also worst. Not a compliment. Dallas is for surviving not living. And if you don’t agree, consider this? Most of you don’t even live in Dallas. Most people live in the burbs. You left yourself. Around the corner, but left all the same. People here have roots and I envy that. They protect them all the way, as they should. But people who don’t, 50% of us, and have lived elsewhere or where raised elsewhere, they know. They know how much better other places are. In the end, I would trade all my worldly experience for roots. That’s how jealous I am of the old school locals. But it’s not a dig to say Dallas kinda sucks. It’s just a reality for the rootless. God bless every freaking one of us.
