I need some outside perspective.

I was in a relationship for 3 years. I met my ex-girlfriend in college,  she was from California and I was from Texas. We were together all throughout college and when we graduated last semester, she went back to California and broke up with me. I found a job in Texas and I started work after graduation. Before I met her, I have never traveled before and I have never gone outside the state. In those 3 years, we have traveled to many different places within the states and I fell in love with one particular city, Los Angeles. It was always my plan to work for a couple  years in Texas and then move to LA whenever I have gained some quality work experience.

Now, this is the first time I have experienced heartbreak and what a break up feels like and I have to say, its a shitty feeling. The most difficult part is trying to re-wire my life so I can move on. This is extremely difficult…our friends, relationships, everything is in some way, shape, or form is related to my ex. I was talking with a mutual friend and she asked me the basic, “How are you doing?” question. At this point, I had the redundant answer of telling people that I wanted a new experience. However, before answering her question, it hit me. I was tired of telling people I wanted a new experience, I wanted to make it happen.

I began apply to jobs in LA, I later interviewed and received a offer. This is where I need advice.

This is exactly what I wanted for the past couple months, a new start. I want to put myself in a position where I have to venture out of my comfort zone, meet new people, make new friends, have the “new” experience that I have been wanting. I am now doubting my intentions on moving. I do not know if I am moving for the right reasons. I know that if I move, there is a chance I may not be happy, feeling more alone, etc.

If anyone has had a similar experience or just a different outlook that I am blind to, anything is appreciated.
