Merry Leftover Christmas! And congratulations on doing what fits. Next year will be so different. This one was the hardest.
The cookies? Sheesh.. she probably got rattled when you took everything off the table with the mediator. Oops.. jolted something in her.
And, my friend, I LOVED the email.. simply perfect. A few things to remember when you're casually meeting a woman.
Go in with no expectations, no intentions.
Do not discuss the divorce. If you do, it's about the woman whose leaving you rather than the woman in front of you. Why bring baggage? This is causal, fun. Remember.. fun?
Remember to give a sincere compliment. Women notice these things.
A get together does not a relationship make. Enjoy the moment.
And give that winning smile, warm laugh and gentle wit.
