HEY! At least he called today and not tomorrow or the next day OR not at all to apologize. I agree...let it go for now. Remember he screwed things up last time with that other woman...he needs retrained...cut him some slack and enjoy!! enjoy!! enjoy!!

He sounds like a good guy...he may be a keeper!

Now...who's bellying up to the bar with me??

You're better than me Faith. At least you have a date!

I did get an invite tonight to a friends house for Christmas Eve. That's been bothering me lately. My girls go with their dad for the Eve. I don't have family near me, and it was really getting to me to be alone.
I will be the only non-couple there, but at least I will be with friends.

Hey, I ordered the first pitcher, pass me your glass!

Yea! Faith! That's great, and I agree about the apologies!

I wanna go for margaritas! Did you guys know that my nickname is Dellarita for that very reason?! I'm VERY well known for my drink of choice and they are YUMMY!!!!

So we have a date for Christmas Eve? Wouldn't that be fun? I gotta go someplace warm though! I could use a vacation like no other, I'll tell ya!

I like the big fishbowl margaritas! Jose is my boyfriend. I almost called my puppy Jose, but I called him Romeo instead!

It's "warm" here. Come to my house for Christmas Eve! We'll have fun! I'm off for several days around Christmas. woo-hoo!

Well, he called, and we finally have our plans for tonight. He was very sweet, apologized again - said "I didn't want you to think that I don't do what I say I'm going to do" LOL... I didnt whine, complain, nag or anything of the sort! Ok .. I did tell him thank you for the message last night, that I really apprciated it, because I was wondering....

Drita, I had a fish named Romeo after my divorce. hehe <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" />.

Very good Faith. I hope you enjoy your date tonight.

Hey, if I lived near you, I would come by for Christmas Eve.
I'm so thankful a friend invited me over. I can't stand being along on the very special days. It will all be couples there and me, but at least I won't be alone.

I have one for ya, my YD has a "frog habitat" she got her tadpole in the mail. I'm keep telling her I'm going to kiss it and make it turn into a prince!

Faith1 checking in. Not filling you in on all the details! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

hehe... OK.... some of them.... we ran into 2 couples he knows at dinner. We were saying hi to them, And... then a male voice hollered my name from a few tables down, and when I looked, it took me a minute to recognize him. It was my exH's cousin. WEIRD! I haven't seen him since Christmas 2001, before ANYTHING went wrong in our marriage. I have often wondered if they knew what happened. He and his 3 and1/2 yo son were out christmas shopping for his W. He doesn't talk to exH much anymore (not surprising), and yes, he is aware of what happened (not sure of the affair part, but he was aware of the divorce). I introduced him to my date. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> And told him to tell his W hello and merry christmas. Very strange feeling to run into exH's family.

Narnia was VERY good!!!!

Then he brought me home and said good night. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Sounds like you are happy with your date! And I'm happy for you Faith.

I hope he follows up with a phone call today or tomorrow!

Yes, that would be weird running into x's family with someone else. I do feel though, that this guy would not have called out your name if there were any ill feelings, and given the fact he doesn't talk to his cousin/your x much speaks volumes!
My OD talked to my x's brother/her uncle the other day. He cared for me a lot and was very involved in helping to try to recover our marriage. He asked her if I was dating? She told him no.......that was weird for me to hear.

Sending good thoughts your way Faith!

He picked me up, we ate, we saw a movie, he took me home........... we said good-night, he left. <giggle>

Ok, there was a tiny good-night kiss. OK. 3 tiny good-night kisses. That's all. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />
