[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 594852, member: 84"] dash.......... Sometimes 3 wks is plenty of time. I dated Fred 2 wks, married him 2 wks later. It lasted 28 yrs. When it "works" and it's "real" it doesn't matter the length of time you know someone. My mom has made some horrid mistakes with males she knew for years..... lol My mom had a fit you could imagine. My family were stunned. My mom swore for probably 20 of those 28 yrs it would never last. LOL I know it's a gut reaction to say "what the heck is she thinking, he's a stranger....." But these days I've known people who have lived together years, gotten married and divorce less than 6 months later. I don't think "time" factors much into it. If he's helping to keep her grounded, perhaps that means she's found herself a good guy to spend her life with. I hope they're happy together. In this situation, it's all you can hope for. But it would've been nice to have given you the news instead of having you find out the way you did. (probably done because she was afraid of your reaction and expected you to be mad) ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
