I would express gratitude or appreciation for the things they’ve done specifically in your case while also bringing up parts of yourself that you want to work on, and how moving states would be beneficial to that growth

Don’t say anything about them just say the state sucks and you want to explore other places to live. Or that the dating scene isn’t good and you want to find a guy that’s a certain type attributed to a city. For some reason that works

they want me to move out of the state but only to certain states because they are still in the south and close by. but i'm wanting to move more west but they literally tell me "no" anytime i bring it up.

That’s not okay you’re an adult. Secure a job plan on moving there get an apartment and everything and go. Tell them it’s either you chose where you live or it’s going to lead to su1cide and maybe they’ll take you seriously. Regardless they’re shit parents for considering their own happiness before you’re well-being. Fuck them
