Day 221: The new girlfriend

At work today I got a call from Mr. Wonderful's mom.

She told me his brother was in town with his new girlfriend. They were all going to dinner and she wanted to know if I wanted to join them because he wanted to see me.

I agreed and after work I took off to go to the restaurant.

I have to say it was a little difficult to see him with a different girl.

When I first met him 5 years ago he was engaged and he has been up until recently.

I feel like his ex-fiance is a part of the family. I always saw them together because they live out of town, so they would come together or he was by himself.

But as I think about it, it will be the same for them when I find someone. Mr. Wonderful's mom has already said she wants to meet him when the time comes, and I'm sure that time won't be easy... for any of us.

In fact they could feel the same way I'm feeling right now.

All that said, it is his life, and I don't know what went on in their relationship, so my philosophy on this one is 'if he's happy, I'm happy for him.'

And he seemed very happy, it was just very odd for me to see.

Although I have a difficult time with change, and I'm a very loyal person. In this situation it's a bit of a double whammy.

But I have to say she is a very nice girl, with a bubbly personality and her energy and enthusiasm are contagious.

During dinner fashion week came up and she said it sounded like a fun event to go to and she would like to go sometime.

Then the brother interjected, you girls should go tomorrow.... and it was on.

We decided to get a plan ready tomorrow since I didn't have the details on the schedule.

I am becoming a fashionista overnight it seems. Now I have to find another outfit to wear.

At least this time I have a full day to pick it out.
