I decided to address the incident in Ireland - although we had discussed it before - and he said that was absolutely not an issue for him and he did not think my judgement was off regarding people. He told me that one of the things he loves most about me is my willingness to accept others and my patience. He just thought that perhaps she was extremely jealous, a bit unstable and off balance - it all culminated with everyone around her being happy and in relationships and she just chose to lash out at us because we were closest at the time. He supported my decision to protect myself for putting the friendship "away" and he said that it was entirely my decision.

Now we will just wait and see if things clear up a bit once he has a bit more time in his schedule.

I guess I just need to figure out how to remain calm, not obsess and trust that everything will be ok.
