PieceByPiece_KC Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 This is my first Thanksgiving alone in a new city and couldn't make it home. Anyone else in a similar boat? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Almodusa Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Not in a similar boat but maybe will be one day. (Not saying you’re not) be grateful you got to move to a new city and have another day of life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk if this is the best advise but perhaps think of it as another regular day (lowkey is a day we just give random significance to) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Distantconstellation Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 Ive had thanksgiving alone for the past 3 years. I was going to make myself something but everything was close except this chinese restaurant near me so i just had that. As ive gotten older i no longer see thanksgiving xmas or other holidays as special anymore. When i was a child i use to love them but then life happened.

Proseductice Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 It was me and my cat today. Moved to a new city this year to be with my significant other, but they're on night shifts for a few weeks. I missed family time today but plan to make it another year in the future when it's affordable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else in a similar boat? Aw I'm sorry. I'd be a little sad too, and almost wasn't able to get home. I live over 10 hours away and would have been stuck here if my mom didn't help me get back.

ohjulia Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I spent it with family and I am grateful for that but my family is all over the world except for my parents so the holidays are hard and they no longer feel the same from when I was a child. I wish I could spend it alone. For Christmas I might just book a room and tell my family I’m spending it with friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archetype Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 It’s sort of the best thing ever if you can travel internationally bc of the long weekend. I’m thinking of doing it next year bc I see my family often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheep Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I've had covid this week(my first time after spending the past year going to concerts, music festivals, and disneyland several times) so I had to be alone. My family packed up some dinner carefully and left it at my door though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BtDecember Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 I treated Thanksgiving as a regular day (with no work!), so I was fine. I am thankful that I am still living with my family though (although, hopefully, I will able to move out in the near future). Btw, we celebrate thanksgiving in October in Canada.
