Just bewildered

Apparently you guys didn't find my "friend in common" thing very strange. Which, I guess in this small world it's really not that weird. And really, it's not so much the coincidence that I find so odd, it's the way it made me feel when I discovered we were talking about the same Brad. It felt very revealing - I think your past relationships can say a lot about you. I even said to him, my date, that despite all our previous conversations, I felt like he knew more about me after the Brad realization than any time before. Which really wasn't a bad thing, it just felt... bewildering. I've been bewildered a lot lately (I think I used that word to describe my reaction to seeing Brad on match).

Aside from dating, I've been doing A LOT of homework lately. But I'm actually starting to make progress. I can't believe how few days are left before it all needs to be done, but at least I'm not at step one anymore.

I found it bewildering. I think i read it on my phone though, so I didn't comment. It's very awkward. At the same time, my husband and I know all of our past relationships and at this point they mean NOTHING to us. So if it works out, it will all be the past.

I am totally with you Doah! It is weird! But not just in a "small world" way. It's weird because as you try to put yourself out there and experience other people, Brad keeps showing up...
THAT is why its weird...

No, I totally got why you felt so weird. Sorry if my comment didn't reflect it. I think I was trying to make you feel less weird. Although, yeah, social media is so strange...i find out my coworkers know my friends and whatnot...and that's always a weird feeling. And those weren't people that I had an intimate relationship. So. I'm with you!
keep going on school! You're almost there.
