Living alone with my dog feels so weird and lonely

I’ve had my new house my first home for about two months now, i’m 34 years old male and I lived with my grandparents, the majority of my life , I moved out for the first time about a year going to a studio apartment for three months with a girlfriend and then we broke up and I went back , it did feel good to have my own space. Well sharing it with her, but my own new space out of my grandmother house. I only had a bedroom. So the first week after I moved into my first home my new home , weirdly me and my ex-girlfriend got back together and then she kind of moved in and then living with me here for the whole time for the first three weeks. It was good after that the Bills started hitting me and I started to see how I wanted things to be a certain way and she just cannot keep a job whatsoever due to her attitude and she’s now giving me attitude about things and I’m paying for all the bills, she cooks and clean when she feel like it when she’s in a good mood, which is not all the time or consistently for me, but she does not contribute moneywise whatsoever and I feel like it’s not worth it. and when we were together in the house, we will go outside chill on the steps and porch and do things together now that I’m by myself I kind of lost that motivation and I don’t even like going outside. I guess I’m an introvert and I’m a little anxious so I don’t even go outside. I’m pretty much a prisoner in the house , but since she haven’t been here, I did find a big sense of peace, and I don’t know if I’d rather just be by myself and struggle alone and save the extra money I can then support a whole grown woman that keeps saying she’s gonna get a job. She’s gonna get a job and then get one. I don’t like it and they keep saying she’s gonna get one that she likes eventually to stick with it , it was been five days now since I kicked her out and I do miss her company around the house, but I don’t miss cleaning up after her. I’m trying to detach from her. She still text me every day asking me am I gonna bring her back and I also have a best friend, a male friend who I got into my job I knew him for a lot of years and he always living with people paying rent and he’s tired of living with multiple people so he said can you come live with me as I have a extra bedroom available and he’ll pay me half of my mortgage to me that sounds so good and I can get ahead and have some breathing room instead of having my girlfriend leach off of me, what do you guys think? Should I do?
