So I decided it's time for a new thread, a new beginning for the year, since today is my birthday. HaPpY nEw YeAr To Me!!! I received a nice kiss for my birthday this morning ....... from (drum roll ...........) my cat!!!
The other night when I was out with my 3 male friends, I mentioned it was going to be my b'day on Tues. Can't remember what MF3 said, but he said something & then I said, so where are we going to dinner on my b'day?? He gave a positive response to going to dinner with me. (Ah, my memory is so bad, as to what he said). Anyway, I didn't expect a positive response or for him to really agree, so I dropped the subject. Can I hit myself with a 2x4?? Are those rules game??? After talking with my sister last night she said, if he really didn't want to go, he would have made an excuse. Thing is .... is over these almost 2 years - I have gotten used to being turned down (well, by my H anyway).
Well, I decided, that I had nothing to loose & left MF3, a message a few mintues ago, asking him if he was available or interested in dinner tonight or interested in going out for a drink tomorrow night. Aaaahhh, I was so nervous. But well, I have nothing to loose - right?? That's right. And the game of life goes on.....as I begin to shuffle the cards.....roll the dice & see where it takes me!

So I was thinking my thread title - really does have more meaning to it. It was about a decade ago that my H & I briefly dated, he left w/no contact, it ended our friendship ended for about a year or two. Then we became friends again, best friends, dated, married, then he left again w/little contact. Here I am full circle once again. Time to break out & learn from my mistakes ..... I do believe.
And to keep end this on a positive note, I bought myself a dozen roses. So all is well!

Hey Michelle, Hey Ali, Nice to see you have found me. Thank you for the b'day wishes!!
I totally, agree buying flowers for yourself is a wonderful thing!! So I called my Ffriend to cancel going to their house for an Inagereation (sp?) cheese & wine party. My Ffriend, said, but You're married!!! And I said to someone who left me almost 2 years ago. Anyway, it is just dinner with a male friend, whom I find attractive & enjoy his company. Currently, I am looking for nothing more than that.
Yes, Ali, I'm letting go of my H - not much else I can do. And at the moment, this is what is best for me. Didn't I say this was the year of the 'Amy' - well, that's me & this is the beginning of "my new year". Cheers!!!

Well, I'm back from my 4 hour dinner date. MF3 chose a nice cafe/bar to meet at. We talked & joked about many things, it was carefree, no pressures & a nice escape. I'm happy I chose to call him & ask him out & that he agreed. I had a really good time hanging out with him & thats all I could ask for. We gave each other a half hug goodbye & looked at each other & that was it. Very nice indeed.
