I got laid off a few months ago and was really devastated. I went through horrible depression, only 1 person knows how bad. But it was bad. There’s a lot of reasons for me having created such an attachment to this job, but I had decided that’s it! I’ll never work for anyone ever again! I started freelancing and at first, it was great but some of my promised leads started to drop off. I still have about 2 months worth of rent, car & food saved up but I don’t want to go for broke before I decide what my next moves are.

On a whim, I started to apply and in 2 days I’ve had 3 offers. One is $15k more than my last job, but another is close to $25k and putting my really close to six figures which is something I never thought I would ever achieve. I would be an idiot not to entertain these offers. I’m thinking about maybe taking the job, continuing to build clientele and stashing away more money until my apartment and car lease are over and THEN go live my dreams of being a digital nomad? Idk. I know and recognize that these are great problems to have, I am aware of this but I also don’t know how well I would even do at a full time job. The idea of going back to the same day to day routine at the same office just makes me want to vomit. It’s been 12+ years of this shit.

I’m also really feeling someone who I can tell isn’t really into the whole relationship thing and I’m not mad at him for it, but it is disappointing. I’m not really in a position to date, but it’s been a long time since I’ve met someone like him, someone that I really like who has a lot in common with me, but I can’t force it.
