Actually, in my opinion, you could say either. But I'd personally prefer to say "I don't (wanna move), either" or "Neither do I".

In your future posts, please try to be more patient. Expecting volunteer to respond within half an hour, especially when many of them are in parts of world where it is late at night, is simply not realistic.

Also, please avoid "wanna" in writing. It's hard to focus on your question when there is something so obviously wrong in your sentence!

Funny, I never knew that wanna is wrong! Informal, yes, but obviously not wrong.

In writing, I think, it's considered wrong.

It doesn't bother me in speech -- I probably say it myself occasionally. But it writing, it just screams out "uneducated!" at me.
