Are you afraid of being alone in another unknown city?

I am not afraid. I would look at the opportunity to go to an unfamiliar city as an adventure, and I would likely really enjoy the experience. I would probably also enjoy some peace and quiet for a few days, so bring it on...LOL

Once you settle in you will make friends near where you live, and at your new job. Treat this as a new chalenge in your life, and you will succeed. Best of luck to you.

I would have a very hard time moving to a city that i don't know, and where i don't know anyone. Congrats on your the courage you have to do this! I wish you the best of luck and i am sure in no time you will meet people and become familiar with your surroundings.
The closest i came to this was when i moved from nebraska to maine to live with my fiance of the time. (his family is from maine) so i moved out here not knowing anyone except him and his family (an i didn't even know them very well) but at least i had a feeling of family. It was a very difficult situation for me. Eventually i started making friends with his friends and having a "community" of friends and aquantences.
The hard part though came when he and i split up. It was difficult on our friends, as many of them felt the need to choose sides, (it is hard to balance friendships when a couple splits) and well, he had known them all his life, me for only a couple of years...so i was back at square one....but i perservered, stayed out here instead of going back home, and now have my own large group of friends (many of them from his "circle" have wound up back in mine now that the breakup phase has gotten over and done with)and am very happy in my living situation.

Dont be afraid to work in another city, For me thats will be a nice, new and excited experience. We can meet a new people,doing something different than before and also make a new friends. If you feel lonely, i think it just a temporary feelings, because you are new comers at that city. YOu still doesn't know who your friend,which way you will go..and etc.. just keep up positive thinking... :D
