everyone is so chill and happy down here. the girls are hot as fuck and not bitchy, depressed or psycho. people are put-together from a fashion standpoint in a very classic, timeless way. you can shoot the breeze about simple stuff and have it be enjoyable. no expectations except to enjoy life and treat each other well.

NYC/DC/SF/LA are such circle-jerks of ugly, unpleasant, striverish, soulless drones who add unnecessary ennui and drama to their lives and invest way too much time, energy, and resources to sustain it. Charleston is heaven-on-earth and most people won't pause long enough from their ongoing bullshit to realize it.

model is probably the wrong word. most big time models aren't that hot to straight men. but that's what happens when gay men dominate fashion. and that's why you're more likely to see truly hot girls wondering some random street than on a magazine cover

Are you a lawyer? The legal market in Charleston is obviously saturated with people who have the same idea as you, but you could try to lateral.

But of course, if it were that easy, you probably would have done so already.

last night i drove out to sweatman's bbq near holly hill, sc. got there around closing time. most of the diners had already finished dinner and were yucking it up with the owners. everyone from grandma and grandpas to super-hot blondes dressed way too nicely for a bbq dinner (but they always dress nicely) just hanging out and enjoying. topics of discussion included how one of the hotties, named hunter, ran over a tree stump in her daddy's tractor and ed over there had to come by and straighten out the axle. another guy was adding a second story to his house as a DIY project. deer rut season is coming to an end thanks to the cold. someone else is marrying a cadet from the citadel and driving to atlanta next week for christmas. a lot of "blesseds" and "have a merry christmas" wishes were said. "happy holidays" was nowhere to be heard. there was a warmth and joy in that room i haven't felt in ages.

This, and it's an insular kind of snobby. If you aren't from one of a certain number of families in Charleston and you don't have membership to certain private clubs, you're pretty much excluded from social life. You can talk all you want to the hot CGWBTs and she may be nice to your face, but she'll never consider you her social peer, let alone someone that she would date. Without ties to Charleston (i.e. someone to vouch for you so you're accepted into society), you'll be a second class citizen.

You will forever be considered an outsider. This will also hurt you professionally.

lol at being "interesting" to SF millennials. o wut elite concerns and interests they possess. i've lived in the bay area for 6 yrs now (not including college). fitting in there is the last thing i want to do.

i know charleston well. i have relatives here, spent every summer of my youth there, and have visited about 15 times as an adult. it's not romanticization. this place is 180. it has its flaws, but on balance, it's the greatest place in america.
