And slightly terrified, I'm moving to Manchester to live with my girlfriend, and I'm really nervous because I have always lived in a small town and my family has always been close by. I have always been a worrier, but I am slightly neurotic, I panic about anything that causes stress, but I know there is a big part of me that is looking forward to it, I just can't seem to stop worrying. My question to you guys is, is there any advice you could give me, maybe if you have been in a similar situation?.
I'm moving to Manchester and I'm very nervous.

You´ll be fine once you get used to the new place, I would suggest to triple the amount of sexual interaction with your woman until that happens, it will ease the transition.
This man is clearly a doctor, and his advice is most sound.
I'm from, and remain living in, Manchester - it's a great place to live! It also produces people like this...
Whereabouts in Manchester BTW?
At least you are moving with someone and not alone. It'll probably be weird to live in a large city for you in the beginning, but after a month or two you'll probably know most of the city and it won't look as big, I guarantee you that. Also, at least you're moving to a place, where english language is the primary language and not like me, because I've just moved to Denmark to study and let me tell you, it is much more terrifying when everyone around you is talking in a language you can't understand.
I can't speak directly for Manchester, but a lot of cities feel like lots of small towns pushed together. I live right in the centre of Edinburgh but unless I go near the Uni or the shops it doesn't feel like a big place most of the time.
@Neurotic: Yeah that sounds like me, I dread things so much, and most of the time, it's never as bad as I thought it would be.
I know your going to live with your girlfriend, but I watched a program about sexual health clinics (on BBC3, I'm sure others saw it) and that was set in manchester, it's safe to say peoples sexual habits were open enough that you would need to be really careful if you ever ended up not with your GF.
Good luck! :D

You should move to Newcastle instead. It's better up here. Manchester smells funny.
That is all.
I wish I could move to Newcastle..
Trafford is one of the more affluent boroughs in Greater Manchester, with good transport links to the City Centre if you want the hustle and bustle of the the town and to Cheshire and Derbyshire for the parks and the countryside. You will be fine...
@pompouspizza: I think you will be fine. It is totally natural to worry about big changes before we make them but I think you will find a lot to interest you in Manchester. My mate just moved their with all the BBC people and he is loving it, after really dreading it at first.
Its a really cool city with all the advantages of City living but still feels small scale and managable unlike London which I imagine can be pretty scary for people from outside. Just go with an open mind and throw yourself into stuff and I reckon you'll be fine. Just don't start supporting Manure.
