I'm really happy for my best friend and her boyfriend of 5 years. They just moved into the house they bought. Unfortunately, it also reminds me how far away I am from doing that.
Why are you looking forward to buying a house instead of just renting?
Mortgages can often be cheaper than rent and I want to have that feeling of owning my home.
It's really cool of you to be happy for your friend and I'm sure they really appreciate it. It likely means a lot to know that they have you in their corner.
I really don't think they care. They never said anything about it.
I'm sure they appreciate you and your support.
