OT, you are correct about CB but the reason W was skeptical was because I was honest with her about that situation. I told her I had warm feelings for CB and was very confused by that. My question right now is does W have the right to know what my situation with this woman is? If I say I have a friend who wants to join us is that not sufficient? Why should I bend over backwards to make sure W knows it's just a friend, it's none of her business. Btw, she's not my "date" and if I thought that was the case she wouldn't be coming! My children would not be meeting someone I'm dating (and I'm not) this quickly. I mentioned to my friend that we still attend these Meets as a family and she was welcome to join us. I think that's clear enough (I hope anyway!). She also suggested she come to this one because she lives near where the Meet is being held, so it's no problem for her to pop over. I don't feel that she wants anything else but I'm apparently a complete moron when it comes to this kind of thing, so who knows. Minkerman, I really have no idea whether W would care one way or the other, so I don't know whether it would light a fire or not. Now, if she cares enough to ask about this person I will certainly be honest with her, there's nothing to hide but I just don't think I should feel obligated to inform her of the significance of certain people in my life anymore without being asked.
