Considering relocating to Texas

Clearly I need money to get into a relationship anyway so...

If you think that, you aren't hanging with the right women. Chicks that want you for money are the wrong ones to deal with.

6K a month and scraping by? Not sure what your budget is but I'd take a hard look at that.

Good luck and hope you find a place that makes you happy. Young and single, if you don't like the area or new job, find another. No ball & chain, kids, any of the BS that goes with being able to up and go somewhere new. Perspective my friend!
