I feel your pain. It was difficult leaving our kids, grandkids, and great friends when we moved here. Having said that, I couldn't be happier! Our children encouraged us to move and some have already visited, their feeling was that we have worked hard and earned living here. As for your other concern, I did not feel like I changed, but did feel free to be who I really am, no preconceived ideas of who or what I was supposed to be because no one knew me. We are still in the process of meeting people, and have met one really great neighbor so far. We have been in the house two weeks. Good luck in your decision making, I know when we visited here, we knew it was three place we wanted to be.
