Hey Hels!
Okay I'll talk you down, lul. Boats are rocky, claustrophobic, dangerous in storms and hurricanes, can make you sea sick, and extremely dangerous if you meet jaws or that giant squid guy, or if you have a medical emergency. Also Dexter had a boat so he could dump dead bodies. Just saying.

Helsbells, I know people who live on boats! I wouldn't want to because they are too cold. However, the thing to be aware of is maintanence for boats costs a lot of money, so people have love/hate relationships with them because they are a "money pit." If you can afford it and really want the lifestyle change, you can give it a try.

Have you tried to make a vision about living on a boat ? Briething in and out 3 times, tuning into your body, imaging you are living on the boat right now: How would your life be different from what it is right now living on a boat ? What would it give you living on a boat? What feelings / mood will it give you ?? What else in your life right now, could give you the same feeling/mood? If it is freedom, what could give you an experience of freedom right now? If it is xxxx, what could give you an experience of xxxx? If it is adventure, joy, gratification, relief, lightness, meaningfulness, feeling good etc. - what could give you a similar feeling even though it may be a weaker feeling? You can start today doing the things that can give you some of the same feelings and moods. Can you find some inspiration in some of the tools in the Creating your Future RELATIONSHIP (lovevision) thread, intuition thread, how to love yourself thread ect ?

I wont rush into anything right now xx

My happiest memories are being on the river with my pops x

I know what you mean. I feel kind of high on life when I've been on boat trips. There's this one Island trip I go on some years to count migratory bird species with a group, and usually we take our cameras to photograph all kinds of birds. The water underneath is so clear and you see so much interesting sea life.
I've only taken a long boat trip once, over 4 days. Its was up a coastal river, very safe. The boating community were so friendly. Its easy to see why the idea excites you, especially when you have those great memories as well.

I reckon it’s a good idea to hold off on making any Major life decisions after something as horrible as a breakup...give it six month and then see how you feel. You might be having a knee jerk reaction to recent events

Swaying to sleep, like being cradled in loving arms is so soothing. Your boat trip sounds amazing. Xx

You might be having a knee jerk reaction to recent events Amber, I think you have a valid point. My heart is hurting and searching to find relief. I spent some time on a friends boat the other day and felt very soothed by the gentle swaying. The clear water and salty air made me feel alive.

I feel soothed by dreaming big after a breakup too. I think switching up your dream is healthy, after your old dream from when you fell in love is broken.
I once travelled to Indonesia alone after a sad breakup. Man that adventure was a great way to get over a guy.

Travelling lots in up there on my list even if I have to go alone xx

I've been struggling with the urge to do something radical too. In my case, I keep fantasizing about moving to a new city. On the one hand, it would cause financial hardship. I'd have to give up my easy, fun jobs and my rent-controlled house, plus all the friends I've made in 15 years of living here. I don't really know where I'd go, it's a scary, lonely thought starting over all alone somewhere.
The benefits: perhaps a new/bigger dater pool. And, more importantly, I could relax my vigilance around trying to avoid running into certain exes (the NPD's, FA's, and EU's.) The very presence of them in the same venue often puts me in a self-conscious, bad mood and I can't stand it.
