Found out today from a mutual friend of xW, OM, and I that xW is engaged to OM...don't know the exact date that it happened. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" />

On a separate note, I had a great 1st date tonight with a girl who I can tell is very interested in me. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="images/icons/cool.gif" />

On another separate note, received an email from xW asking how things were going after no contact for a few months.

Are there some sort of stars in alignment, or is this just a lot for one day? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

How funny.

Good to hear you had such a great first date.

So what do you plan on telling her?

It DOES seem like a lot of interesting things in one 24 hour period. Lucky you <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Well,

I hadn't planned on telling her anything about my date...what I did say was that work, school, etc was keeping me busy, but that there wasn't any real "news".

A first date is nothing to tell her about, especially since receiving the email was prior to the date. I don't expect (or want) her to tell me about her dates either.

It's even more interesting yesterday, as I replied and asked if anything was new with her. She replied with a long message, but didn't mention the engagement. I replied stating I had heard some news and it sounded very big. She then told me, and apologized since she didn't really know how to bring it up. I didn't reply and this morning saw a message that she was concerned I didn't reply if I was angry or upset. I then sent something that stated I didn't understand what she wanted from me...reaction of anger? indifference? congratulations? As of now I haven't heard back, but maybe when I check again tomorrow, I'll know more.

I just don't understand all of this right now. She chooses her own path, which she should...why does my opinion really matter? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />
