Due to Popular Request - Update on The Boy
Yes, we're still going out, we're happy, Boruch Hashem, we're both so jaded with dating that it feels like a dreamworld...suddenly we actually look forward to the next date wholeheartedly...suddenly the world has opened up before us...
I have an old friend who I used to take for granted. I haven't really had much to do with her in recent years, but we've seen each other around. I saw her when I was on a date with The Boy recently, and I was mortified. It wasn't logical to be mortified - I just was. She came up to me a few days later and mentioned that she'd seen me...and suddenly it was like old times. I've never had someone get so excited for me before. She's my age and single, and I know how often I had to force myself to pretend to be happy for a friend when inside the little jealous monster was fighting to come out. But this was no make-believe. She really and truly was excited for me. It was incredible. She listened to me, shared in my laughter and confusion...and just reminded me what a wonderful person she is.
Maybe he has a friend.

Glad its going well for you. Pleased you havent totally forgotten your old friends.
Sometimes people can suprise you in the mose pleasant way.
BE"H may you be pleasantly suprised- often.
"Totally forgotten my old friends"? I hope not. This isn't a friend of mine that I talked to when I was single either. THOSE I need more than ever now.
I know what it's like to be on the other side of things. I know what it's like to be the ignored single, discarded like an old shoe. Trust me, I know it all too well. And I hope I will never, EVER do that to anybody else. Especially not those friends who have helped me get where I am today in the first place.
Please, ggreen, give me more credit than that.
I hope this silence bodes well for the current state of the shidduch
Life is smiling upon you :-)
