Damn, damn, damn!

Nicole didn't give me much insight into their meeting. She said he was very nice. They talked about V and the industry a little, but mostly he was interested in what her husband does with the Navy and politics.

She says he didn't really mention me.

I feel like I'm going to throw up or cry. I'm not sure which. Maybe both.

Oh sweetie! I wouldn't be too upset about it. Maybe she didn't know what to ask or tell David about you? Maybe David was too embarrassed to bring your name up and didn't want to feel uncomfortable? I think it's probably a good thing that not much was said...hey, it could've been the exact opposite and her husband could've told him a bunch of nonsense and made matters worse. *hugs you tight* I wouldn't worry about it. The good thing is, is that they seemed to have a good chat and maybe Nicole took some photos. :)

I'm sorry I didn't call you back AND I must have barely missed your email. I went out for a walk straight after we chatted didn't go back on my computer until now. :(

Well, it's not that I expected them to have some deep conversation about David's feelings for me or our relationship, but surely I would be mentioned in passing? I mean, Nicole told me she mentioned how she I met and that we saw V together, so wouldn't David have said something - "oh, she's a nice young woman," or something like that? And couldn't Nicole infer something from his body language or tone of voice or word choice? I am, afterall, the reason they met, for goodness sake! He must have said something, even if it was just a simple phrase, which is what I suspect. She must not recall. It's like pulling teeth to get a recap from Nicole... and she was a little tipsy from her one drink. She did say that he was a great guy and I had to keep hanging out with him. What concerns me is that she asked me rather pointedly if David and I had ever had a serious discussion about "our relationship," almost as if she suspected something. Unfortunately, I only spoke with her for about two minutes! I wish I could have called you back! According

"It occurred to me that maybe David didn't mention me because I had told him that her husband doesn't like me, so maybe he was trying to avoid an awkward situation. Do you think that is possible?"

Well, that's what I think. If you did tell David that her husband wasn't very nice to you, then maybe David was trying to keep from mentioning you in order from anything uncomfortable.

It could always be that they (Nicole & David) were just nervous? Maybe Nicole didn't want to ask anything too personal and make David feel put on the spot?

Oh, I wish I had of stuck around later or taken my cell phone with me on my walk! How long did Nicole chat with him anyway? Was she still with him when she called?

She said they hung out for about an hour and half, and called me as soon as they left. I wouldn't expect them to talk about anything personal; it's just that any of my other friends would have come away with some kind of gut response based on intuition and the ability to read reactions, even to something as simple as mentioning me in passing - which is what I was expecting! It's not like I was expecting Nicole to interrogate him about his feelings for me. That would have been incredibly foolish! LOL! I just thought she might come away from the experience with something... anything, really, but not nothing. It seems very strange and ominous to me.

If I had known that my conversation with Nicole was going to be so brief, I'd have told you to call right back!
