Well i must say Steve, it is very curious as to the timing of WAW's reemergence I almost immediately after Mary and I split. Very, very hard for me to see that as a coincidence. Also worth noting is if a woman wants to be rid of her ex, she's not going to look him up 4 years later immediately after he breaks up with his girlfriend. Further, even if she did...if she didn't like what she saw after the first reunion; she certainly wouldn't embark on a crusade to continue seeing him regularly. These are the reasons why I think things are progressing just fine. That's why I am saying away from advice that suggests the quick fix, the quick answer. Her answer now would be no...BUT I don't think that will be the case down the road. However, the question is will this all time correctly. I am not stopping my social life with other ladies...and if I happen to become involved with one beforehand then WAW and I just weren't meant to be. So that's why I have chosen to simply let this thing play out. It's not like I need an immediate answer now...all I need to do is nurture what's happening and go with it.

As someone else posted a couple posts back...I too find it hard to believe WAW contacting me again when she did because she wanted to be friends. She missed me, she clearly compared her Florida boyfriend to me, and she mentioned during our last visit that things with this guy didn't progress to where she thought they should to prompt her to stay in Florida so she came back home. Of course the sexual comparisons I've already talked about here a couple times as well.

So I'm playing this close to the vest, seeing where it goes while at the same time enjoying my life without WAW as I have been doing for the past few years anyway. It seems to me this is a win/win situation for me.
