  I thought I had really made progress. I was totally focused on my boyfriend. I hadn't spend time with any other guys, nor had I invested any time forging new relationships with guys.
I had gone to see him in D.C. once and had plans to see him again this weekend. Our conversations were oozing with lovey-doviness, the kind that make you cringe if you're unlucky enough to overhear.
But then Matt started IMing me. It was just a "hi" here or a "what's up? " there. Then he IM'd and wanted to hang out. We had already discussed my new devotion to my boyfriend, and we decided we could totally handle being just friends. I was optimist, but in the back of my mind, I knew what would happen. First mistake was choosing to hang out at a bar.
