OK...you guys are going to love this story!

I have been working downtown for 3 months now and keep seeing this guy on the bus, both on the way to work and back. Very cute, well dressed, about my age. Anyway we never talked or flirted or anything, I just noticed him every time I saw him.

So then...one day after work it is raining and the bus is just MIA. I see him get in a cab and then realize I had better do the same thing or I would be late to pick up DS. I start to hail a cab and he asks me if I'd like to share the cab with him.

We chit chat a bit but he is not really giving off a flirty vibe. I think maybe he could be married or with someone so I don't flirt with him. He gives me practically the whole cab fare and gets out before me. We didn't learn each other's names.

So...fast forward 2 months. I put an ad on Craig's List on a whim (this was the 2nd time I tried it) and get a whole slew of completely uninteresting responses. Then one of the last ones to come in (the ads expire after a week)...and IT'S HIM!!

We talked on the phone tonight for a little while and it was so fun. He's wicked funny and smart, I can already tell. Turns out we live within 10 minutes of each other...and work within 10 minutes of each other.

We are going out on Saturday night :)

Anyway, who knows what will come of it, but it's a crazy story, no?

Um, not so well :( We had an (I thought) amazing first date, then he disappeared for a while. I emailed him to ask if anything had happened, and he said he wasn't ready to date someone who had kids, though he thought we had a great connection. It's still a cool story!!!!!

Hi Kim... I truly think that it's important to forgive. My husband died a year and a half after our divorce and I was able to forgive him and talk to him before he left. I think that was the key to my closure. On the other hand, his parents have don…
