I am opening the hair salon in NC, but i signed the least Saturday, but things don't seem right, my gay ex,?

is working close and i live with him, he is trying to push me into opening this salon, he thinks it will make me stay here longer,do i have time to back out, i found out that my ex gay partner, is working not to far from where i will be opening the salon, i think i have made a mistake, i should have moved to Atlanta, Washington State, Ft. Lauderdale, but i think i am opening the salon here to prove myself to my ex and show people i can do it, i am thinking i should start afresh and make new friend, does anybody understand where i am coming from, sincere only reply, thanks guys and gals
