I didn't know where to post this, so I decided to post it here with all the other randomness. I just had a strange moment when I heard from a friend a girl I dated just a year ago, maybe just a little bit less, is already engaged! Holy smoke that is weird? I'm trying to think about why I consider it weird. First, I wonder if we were in a relationship would she be pushing me for marriage? Second, I'm glad we only went out a couple of times before I decided she wasn't for me. That's the only reasons I can think of.

Hmmm ...

I wonder what age you are.

This used to happen to me in my late 20's. I seemed to be the last woman a man would date then whamo! they would marry the next. (Like "get me out of here-weird-dating-here!") I began thinking of myself as a precursor class to Marriage 101.

Then, like usual, I told a friend. And he said ... "maybe you are just the kind of girl a man dates when he is looking for marriage. It didn't work out with you but you were still in the field of reason." That made me laugh and made me feel better about it.

So be flattered. Yeah, maybe she would have gotten serious with you. Maybe she was in that frame of mind. But maybe it's because you are worth it.

Now, do you feel better?
