Understood and thank you Ginger! I had texted her when I was out Friday and she replied quickly and happily to me, but then for the rest of the weekend I just let it go and I didn't hear from her. So who knows what's up with that.
I don't chase and believe I'm a great catch so it will be on her to contact me going forward. It wasn't until I did some "homework" over the weekend that I realized between my texting and being an open book, I had been doing all the wrong things when meeting a new lady. I'm happy to have learned some things to be better prepared next time. And apparently leaving this lady alone who I'm highly attracted to and being totally fine with it is about the most alpha like thing I could do and I didn't know that either. Folks going through what we've gone through detaching from our spouses, the strength that gives you when folks you want to date don't pan out is a wonderful thing.
Hopefully this was a dating "pop quiz" designed to teach me some important things for when a more realistic opportunity comes along in my future.
