Not What I Was Hoping To Hear

I spoke with my friend tonight and he informed me that he is considering moving by next week. He is considering far west or one of the mid-western states. I guess I was kind of hoping he would have considered going back to New Orleans. Don't get me wrong, I have considered other states as well but I am sure after a few months, no longer that a couple of years, I would be ready to return back to New Orleans. I certainly can not ask him to consider me in his plans. That would not be fair to him. Though in some underlying way I am considering him in my plans. I guess because I already know him, I do not want to go through the trouble of finding someone else, learning someone else, and trying to trust someone else. Not that I can trust this one 100%, but I am more comfortable with him. I am not ready to meet new people and I am certainly not ready to date anyone I do not know. That is one of my biggest fears now. Being alone with someone I don't know. I guess I should be accepting of his plans. He has to do what is best for him just as I have to do what is best for me. But I guess I was just hoping for something more....
