Me 14 months on, affair confirmed, someone new?

The MIL made a surprise visit to my house today. She was dropping off a Xmas card that was sent back to her, due to incorrect house number. She couldn't remember the number of the house. Chatted at the door, validated some things about her, but basically it was all over in 2 minutes. The card simply said: hotwheelsaust, Merry Christmas, from Rob and Lurline.
That's it, no Mum and Dad, which they would have previously written. Not to mention she could have put the card in the letter box.
I suppose I should be grateful they even bothered to write a card. More than likely, it was a good excuse to visit the house and see what is happening and what I am like.
Also my ex best friend rang and left a message on the mobile. We have a shipping container full of stuff at his house, and he rang to talk about it. Returned his call, but he was now out.
Funny how ex friend rings one day, the MIL visits the next day.....hmmmm.

With regards to my lady friend, I don't think that is going anywhere. I think that I need to quickly catch up to what the single people do these days. What I thought was the way we acted when it is more than friends, is different to what others view as simply being friends.
We are still talking, socialising and riding bikes within a group together, but I have accepted we are just friends, nothing else.
Also decided to join up on a singles website, just to see what it would be like. Sent a few emails to possibles, just waiting for any replies. Maybe or maybe not any replies.
Life just seems to be so much easier when there is no expectations about anything. I am comfortable where I am at this stage, I am looking for companionship, but it is ok if it isn't around the corner at this moment in life.
