I don't spend a lot of time with my friend..nor do we speak often. He recently had a job opportunity that he told me about..and I was somewhat interested in. The timing just isn't right for a job change. My commute would be triple and if me and H do D..I am going to need to refinance the house and need that job stability/longevity on my resume. On the flip side..my company has been restructuring for the past two years and I have survived numerous rounds of layoffs...which are still in process..so I want to keep that door open. The only info that I gave my friend was that I was separated..so of course he is curious. We have known eachother for years..
