I went to a Christmas party with them all and if felt strained. Like we were all just reminiscing over high school days or something. We are all much older, just using this as an example

This resonates. Friend group break ups are strange. I hope you find a new group with time

I see it as a good time to finally leave Philadelphia. I’ve been here for 20+ years and another 15 in the region. I plan to move to a warmer climate after selling my home in the Spring. Philadelphia isn’t great without a bunch of friends to hang with and you definitely don’t want to live in a non-hip neighborhood. More than 50% of the city is a struggle. Palm Springs CA is my destination

Any particular reason you picked Palm Springs? I'm probably 3-5 years away from doing something similar although I'd like to keep my house as a home base here if I can swing it.

Low crime, warm in the winter and I’m gay. It’s like Mecca for older gay men.
