I will make this as short as possible since I am seeking advice.

I am looking for a new relationship after 23 years with the same woman.
I met an outstanding woman and we hit it off famously.
We talked everyday for hours..she would text me and say "call me"
We talked about everything...our baggage, our ex's, our kids, our work...and we really got along well.
She would text me sweet messages and I would text her back. I saw her as often as possible but we hadn't had a date yet because of our schedules. We really wanted this to happen!
She hugged me and held me so tight...her kisses were so sweet...her eyes were loving...her hand fit perfectly in mine. I mean I was falling hard and fast, and it sure seemed she was too.

Then the texts became fewer and fewer, shorter and shorter...but still lots of "I miss u" and she would tell me when she was off work....but she never did. Then she calls me and says her ex was snooping thru her phone and found our texts and went nuts. She said he yelled at her and wanted to know about me. She said that he probably had my number now and not to be surprised if he contacted me.
And that was it. No more answers to my texts. No more calls. Nothing. Gone.
And for the record...never heard from the ex either.

Ok crew...educate me...what the hell happened?
