The playdate is iffy - I really wouldn't want to introduce the kids unless/until I am serious with someone.
As for the tickets, the only thing I have tickets to is the ballet in 6 weeks. I don't really want to buy tickets to something else b/c I just can't afford it right now. In any case, because we are both busy with kids, I would rather be more flexible. His son is his priority when he has him - a quality I like, but that is also annoying, lol!
I've been thinking that we know each other well enough now that I can just ask him if he wants to get together over the little break we have next week (Thurs to Mon). We are both swamped with work, but a couple of hours is not a big deal. I will see him on Monday and gauge things then.
Your concert sounds fun! How great to sing w/ the symphony. I am singing at a fundraiser for S. Africa tomorrow night with a few other choir members - 2 sopranos, 2 altos, 2 tenors.

I found out that the H of one of my choir friends died very suddenly last week. He was out of the country visiting family, caught a virus that attacked his kidneys, and was dead before anyone knew what was going on. My friend was not even able to see him before he died, as she didn't go on the trip.
His W - my friend - is five months pregnant, and their first child is just under 2. He was a lovely man and a devoted father; they were married for 12 years.
This is so horribly sad, and once again makes me realize how fragile life is. Life is to short to be afraid.

oh no, that is so sad! I count my blessings every day, waking up is a huge plus in my book, there is so much to be thankful for as some people truly have it worse than us, my heart and prayers go to that lady, this must be so terribly hard for her for her.

Sadly, no - I won't be talking to him again till after it. I would love for him to come to hear me sing sometime, though.
Thanks for thinking of me!
Oh, also, I wanted to thank you for your comments re. being careful with the "love goggles." Yeah - I am very aware of that. At first, I was definitely seeing only the good side of this guy, but now I think I'm more realistic, though I can't really know b/c we haven't spent enough time together. I think I'm actually hyper-aware of possible problems and have to be careful not to be too quick to dismiss a guy b/c he isn't perfect! That's hangover from my M, though - I do take things too personally.

Hi Nic Sorry you are going through this. I agree with your angst and I frankly do not have much advice to help. I'm terrible at that. In time you will learn to look more forward and back only to review a lesson learned. Takes time and a lot of grief.
The biggest thing I can say is look into 180s and apply that exercise to move on and avoid repeating any mistakes or able to fly the red flags when you see something coming. Pretty general but that the best I can do. Happiness
