Can’t imagine many are hiring people from overseas. It’s tough enough to get into many countries, let alone get visas sorted etc. Where are you trying to move to?

TLDR: Getting over your ex of 2.5 years ghosting you after they said they wanted to reconnect.

I was dating someone for about 2.5 years and then we broke up because of COVID and the long distance was making it too difficult to continue. The break up must’ve been like a 4-5 minute FaceTime because I was very distraught. After we broke up, she started seeing someone else but I was heartbroken and it’s taken me over a year to really get over everything and process those feelings. (Cont.)

Question for the group. What keeps you from freelancing/ working as a professional services contractor? Are there particular aspects that prevent you from diving in such as concern of gaps between projects, difficulty getting paid from clients, or do you enjoy the w2 position you’re in currently? Would love to hear your thoughts!
