Thanks everyone. I was interested in reading your take on my interaction with Jack. I actually didn’t read it that way. I thought he was saying that if I didn’t want him to come over and the reason was that I am seeing someone, then he didn’t want to know that was the reason. I just thought he was protecting himself. Regardless...whatever it is...I do deserve more that what he was able and/or willing to give and I am happy about the decision I made. I didn’t expect to have someone more suited fall into my lap the way that Brook did but maybe this is just how things were supposed to go. If I had added him as a FB friend nine months ago when I first started dating, I don’t think he was in a place at that time to go down that road and probably wouldn’t have contacted me. The timing is perfect. And if this turns out to be my forever love than I will be eternally grateful for all of it... even XH and all of his antics.

J, D & G... you guys are so awesome. Thanks for all of your support and for cheering me on. G... I have no idea why things have been so tough for you in the love department. Sometimes the reasons for things are never clear until we get where we are supposed to be. In my case, Brook was not even on the market a year ago so it had to be now. Maybe there is a Brook out there for you that just isn’t quite ready to find you yet. Please don’t give up.

As soon as my date is done, you can bet I will be giving you an update. I am so, so, so nervous and excited and borderline terrified...lol. This just feels different. I hope I am right.
